    Very cool video. Have only seen the trailer but am told the DVD is worth buying.

    Question Tubin' for Tarpon....

    Looks like a lot of fun but I'd be wondering when a large saltwater Croc or Kaimen might come along and show some interest in parts of the anatomy danging in the water....

    I like the mod he did to the tube - cutting off the pocket from one side to aid in stripping and fighting is my guess. Makes the SFC look super clean!

    Funny thing about fighting a tarpon from a tube - instead of bringing the fish in, it's more like pulling yourself to the fish! May be easier this way.
