Congratulations!🎣. Wasn’t paying attention just clicked on video and was pleasantly surprised to hear your voice on the ocean. My timeshare is at mm75 bayside and in December the 10ft hammerheads hitting in 9 ft on my pier. The one you lost took off like a large shark and it’s tail can cut your line very easily. Lastly, I was always a little skittish hanging my in the water boatside in the dark with toothie critters around. Best of luck it’s so beautiful down there !🎣👏

[@thelonesomefisherman7425]

This is one of BEST videos you've made. Congratulations on the first tarpon and new boat.

[@thelonesomefisherman7425]

I wonder what you would get on a bucktail ?

[@TodaysAngler]

Well thank you. Definitely a challenge to shoot video, especially in darkness.

[@thelonesomefisherman7425]

@Todays Angler You're welcome, Lee. I enjoy the night fishing videos. Then, I enjoy night fishing myself so it doesn't bother me that I can't see everything. As long as you keep a dialog going, the viewer can still follow the action. Then when you get the lights on we can see the fish. So don't worry about it. The sunset was beautiful.

Congrats on your 1st Tarpon Lee!! As far as your comment on the quality of the video goes I actually thought it was really cool! The jumps were high enough to get into the middle of the setting sun, great stuff!!! Damn nice boat as well!!!👍👍👍 Danny W

[@mxbass1036]

Good job on your first tarpon, hard fish to touch.

[@Themuskychannel]

Man dude, a month in the keys and one of theee best new boats on the market, it’s Gina be hard goin back north hahah enjoy your time and have a safe trip. Thanks for the awesome videos

[@TodaysAngler]

It was hard going home.

[@matthewrammer]

Love this Lee! Great meeting you at the MN Musky Expo.

[@TodaysAngler]

Thank you.

[@shawnerickson8711]

Congrats on your first tarpon! Even just hearing the drag screaming and the line tinging as it went over the eyelets made it intense!

[@TodaysAngler]

Thanks. Definitely a different experience

[@alexkoutdoor]

What a sick boat. Holy crap!

[@willym1965]

Dang it !! you should have called me . I’d fish with ya.. lol . That’s awesome. In your Muskie boat using musky top water choppo.

[@jasperredican4987]

Epic! Congrats on the first tarpon. I wish mine was that big lol. Looking forward to the next episodes

[@TodaysAngler]

Thanks!

[@kenandtrishoutdoors]

Congrats wicked fish to catch!!

[@JONNIE_ROCKER]

👍👍 awesome Lee

[@adamsmith3996]

Cant resist the toothy critters !

[@sambono8423]

Sweet new ride Lee! congrats!

[@TodaysAngler]

Thank you

[@josephacker5716]

Wow that's a big fish. Was that like 50lbs? What's a big one120lbs? Wow bites every cast, thats a rare day. Awesome action! I love this channel.

[@TodaysAngler]

They get over 200. Thanks

[@anglingwithPride]

Congrats on the tarpon! Beautiful fish

[@geoffroimarcil8173]

That crazy and with musky lures

[@justinnitta7181]

Pretty awesome seeing that boat handle the ocean like that . How does it hold up?

[@TodaysAngler]

Been great!!

[@mattwiederholt7258]

Even though you couldn’t see much at the end. It was still great and enjoyable especially just hearing those fish and the drag scream sort of emphasized it

[@TodaysAngler]

They don't really give up, that's for sure.

[@fishman1347]

That’s the banjo minnow:)

[@jeffmosloski6753]

Welcome to the vexus family

[@TodaysAngler]

Thanks Jeff!

[@ggrooms10]

Great video! Question however about your vexus, how is it holding up to the salt water? I would love to take mine to Florida with me but talking to a guy at the factory he did not recommend it. I know the trolling motor would need to be changed and the trailer could be a problem. Any advise? This would just be a vacation trip of a couple of weeks.

[@TodaysAngler]

No problem. Just gotta wash daily and flush motor. All kinds of boats down in the ocean every day right? Only thing I had happen is the valve caps on tires corroded.

[@CatchLastCast]

Zip it Kev , Lee an Robbie are Rippin in the 239 not the 715 at the moment …. Is your lake clear bruh? 😎

[@treysummers2061]

Sick🤘🏼

[@20x20Ghost]

Congrats You need a giant light bar Illuminate thems babies thanks for posting

[@TodaysAngler]

Workin on some new lighting.

[@gregpopp4847]

A few years ago I hooked a small tuna - I almost leaned over to hand land it when a 10' tiger appeared right next to my boat. I will never lean over to hand land a fish again. We're not in Minnesota anymore Toto. Those bulls love to eat little struggling tarpon.

[@TodaysAngler]

Yeah- everything is food there

[@thenotsojollyrancher-akate9516]

Better be careful messing with that fish over the side in the dark. You’ll get affiliated with that bull shark! What a place.

[@TodaysAngler]

No kidding- always on alert!

[@Mr44_Mag]

We’re here for muskies!

[@TodaysAngler]

Well we basically have 5 months that we cannot fish muskys in our state. So we travel to fish saltwater muskys.

[@bruno12746]

Saltwater=beta muskies We want alpha muskies!!!!!!

[@kimmyrask7368]

Naah I’m here for everything

[@n8reo269]

I hope to catch a Barracudas on vacation this year.

[@TodaysAngler]

Good luck!

[@n8reo269]

@@TodaysAngler I would not complain if a small shark hit my pike/musky set up either!

[@HeyU308]

Gotta burn those baits faster

[@TodaysAngler]

Did plenty of that too.

[@M24zcVai]

Musky fishing is better

[@MrKveite1]

Musky is a lazy fish tho and dont give much fight...yeye musky anglers get pissed when i say that but it's a fact.

[@TodaysAngler]

All fishing has its different appeal.

[@MrKveite1]

@@TodaysAngler yeah i guess the musky strike is the thing for musky anglers.

[@M24zcVai]

@@MrKveite1 no muskies are phenomenal fighters

[@robsimpson6537]

I don’t know 🤔. Fought a 10ft hammerhead for over an hour not too far from where lee was. Pretty intense rush. Both are a lot of fun 🎣
