Sit there and wait. Caught some huge sharks and jumped one tarpon. Guide may have used a tablespoon of fuel on the trip. I kinda had it in my mind we would be in the backcountry fishing in he middle of nowhere but anyways that's on me.
The next day went down the road and you can hand feed 100 lb plus tarpon from a pier
May also want to check into scuba diving for lobster. They do trips for that outta key west.

Yeh. I'm definitely going to try and lobster dive. I don't have to catch a tarpon. You are right. That doesn't sound like much of an "adventure" for tarpon. Most interested in snook, permit, or bonefish.
Still haven't booked anything yet, so staying in Key West is still an option.
