John's Journal... Entry 108, Day 5 THE TARPON KING OF THE PIRATE COAST Where to Find and Catch Tarpon EDITOR'S NOTE: Very little has been written about the tarpon along Georgia's Pirate Coast where the legendary Blackbeard once pillaged for wealth and treasure, and pirates once ruled with tyranny and fear. But this undiscovered-tarpon hotspot is without question one of the best places to catch the most tarpon in the shortest time. In a day-and-a-half of fishing, we had eight chances to catch tarpon, and we brought four fish to the leader and one fish along the side of the boat. This week, we'll look at the secrets to catching tarpon along the Pirate Coast and talk to Greg Hildreth of Brunswick, Georgia, the King of Tarpon on the Pirate Coast. He'll tell us where to find tarpon and how to catch them. Question: Where do you like to fish to catch tarpon? Question:
You moor your boat on St. Simons Island. In how many different spots can
you find tarpon? Question: How many days are required to catch
a tarpon during July and August? Question:
If an angler catches all the tarpon he wants to catch in the first hour
or two of his trip, what other fish can he catch? To learn more about fishing with Captain Greg Hildreth out of Brunswick, Georgia, call (912) 261-1763.
