9-Year-Old Lands River Monster 🦖

Marlin and i took the little 16 foot jon boat out to the river on a warm day in February, we cast net some gizzard shad on the way for bait. we bridled our baits and put them out on my Tarpon rods. We didn't have to wait very long and we had a bait picked up, Marlin hooks up what ends up being the largest fish he's caught by himself and it gave him a crazy fight!
