Thanks for that cool pic. That tarpon is huge. I heard that was a common occurance to catch tarpon and sawfish off of BHP back in the day.

I went to bob hall on Wednesday and a man was in the same place as you are in the pic and he lost a medium size tarpon.

I remember it well. I was 8 yrs old at that time. Big crowds, lots of tangled lines. Great burgers at the snack bar. Fresh bait shrimp. We'd take 281 south from San Antonio, then it would split to Hwy 9. Locals help me out. Back then, would Hwy 9 merge into Leopard Street in CC?

Yes, they did make great burgers back then! Very Happy
