The thing that really disturbed me was not seeing the shark eat my tarpon like a french fry. When I was fighting my tarpon I was standing on the bow looking down when I saw what looked like a submarine. The size of it! When I saw it, it made my hairs stand up. I was speechless. Thinking about it now, almost 12 years to the very day gives me goose bumps….the experience of this, it’s silent presence, was life changing for me

And tarpon are damn fast and strong. The speed and dexterity of the shark was unreal. It took it a second to get my tarpon. No splashing or chasing. The charter captain actually thought my tarpon was closer to 200 lbs based on site and how long it took to get it to the boat….45 minutes…nothing left but some scales glittering in the sun.

Now if it’s any consolation when was the last time you heard of anyone in key west getting attacked? I can’t recall….and sharks are everywhere there and so are people doing their water sports

Not sure where you are going but you might get better advice if you said where you are going
