Beach News Journal:
Leo Hiles caught this 61-inch tarpon at the 73-mile
marker in the Indian River on October 1, on 10-pound test line
using a SS
1600 Daiwa with a 7-foot rod and 20-pound test leader. It took
Hiles 40 minutes to catch the nearly 100-pound fish, then release
it.
Further detail: Leo was using a #4 size hook with live shrimp;
the rod was a 7' Shimano Aero.
