Tarpon Vid
Submitted by Andy Mac on Thu, 2007-06-28 22:17
If you download Divx6 you can watch this vid. It goes for 20 minutes of which the first 15 are pretty boring but the last 5 will amaze you. Awesome fish!!! Oh and its all in french, but if you can get past that its worth while. PS: Divx6 loads extremely fast so you basicaly click on the vid and it starts showing in very high quality.
Stumbled across it whilst surfing the net.

No need to download
Divx stage 6 loads immediately so you can watch the vid in real time.

Big Tarpon
Certainly was a big Tarpon there. Would certainly be a nice fish to get oneday.
Not sure about the guy in the speedos getting in the water to stroke the fish tho. Wasnt quite sure why he did that?
Andy - Had to download it as Im on a slow broadband connection and its either dowload it or wait for it to buffer all the time. Vid is the same size either way and Id prefer to watch them without it stopping all the time.
