BIG river tarpon / 7" swim bait! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Fished hard today, a side river off the NakDong near Busan. 20knot winds most of the day. Tucked into some small channels trying to find some bass, but nothing was active. Got almost all the way back to the entry and found some mullet in shallow water, and saw a splash was pretty sure wasn't a mullet. So started casting the swimbait in the 2' shallows, kept seeing something swirl around in one spot. After four or five casts, the fish nailed the swimbait, coming all the way out of the water.

Didn't have the GoPro ready due to the slowness of the day, but video is still pretty cool I think.
