there must be a few different varients of the fish...what I call tarpon are the same as the fish in waynos pics....no thread off the the cordal fin....scales don't come off in your hands ....huge tail ....longer body
I thought the others were a herring....well they are all related ... mmmmmmm
Mine have been taking zerek live prawns...but watch when they hit the lure....I have been getting them at night at the turn of the tide and running the line through my fingers to feel the hits in the dark but I have some nice cuts to show for it lol they hit that hard.....
