FLORIDA'S Gulf Coast and in
particular, the Boca Grande Pass, is known as the world's Tarpon Capital,
attracting anglers from across the globe. The sport is celebrated every May
with the World's Richest Tarpon Tournament, when teams compete to catch and
release the most tarpon. This game fish can reach up to 8ft in length, weigh up
to 280 pounds and are exciting to catch with their incredible fighting spirit
when hooked.
The tournament sees 50 boats
in teams of six compete for a cash prize of £28,800 for first place, £16,800 for
second, and £11,500 for third.
The tournament this year is
on May 15/16 May. Teams can enter at www.WorldsRichestTarpon.com
