A very special couple of days with one of my mentors that helped me get going in the business, Capt. Mike Locklear and we had a blast. Mike is retired and moved out of the area, but is always excited to spend some time on his old home waters. We've had this trip planned for quite a while and Mike loves to chase these tarpon as much as I do. We checked some of his old stomping grounds, some of mine and today, we were able to get one to cooperate. We took turns throwing the fly and luckily I was up and able to connect. A wonderful fight, some great pictures and we watched her swim away. I thank you Mike for a fun couple of days and here's yours truly, in the heat of the battle... Capt. Dan
