Photo report from Costa Rica
Had a great trip to Silver King Lodge in Costa Rica shooting my show chasing tarpon. We landed a lot of great fish and just had a fantastic time. Here are a few shots from the trip. We have a lot more photos that we are sitting on as they are up for magazines right now. The video will blow you away.
Chris Lewis with a nice Jumper  Jim with one of the few that was small enough to land solo  Joe Lynberg with a nice size Tarpon getting a landing assist from Jim  Steve Jurries gets a big one to the kayak  Someone asked me if these fish pull hard. The answer is YES  YES  YES  and YES  They also love to jump right next to the kayak. I actually had one jump and land on the forward deck of my boat.  And if the fish are not biting, it's not a bad place for a paddle

Awesome Jim. Glad to see you made it to the Silver King Lodge. Your photos bring back some great memories. Truely a first class operation. I have 5 friends down there right now and I can't wait to go back myself.

Icredible pics.....I put the vertical cloud as my screensaver.
I've seen a lot of fishing programs featuring tarpon but never with those numbers and giants you guys landed. |
