Went surf fishing tonight about 5pm to 7pm bait about 100yrds off beach getting killed by the tarpon. My first time seeing this and i was stoked. i was wondering what is the best approach to get hooked up on one. Spoon, bomber, buck hair jig? or live bait.

Hooked a fattie at playalinda on avlive mullet with the tail trim a lil bit today around 530, stripped off a lot of line and as soon as I put pressure the braid to mono knot broke...so try that!! Next time I'm bringing a daiwa sea line 50hsd spooled with a lot of line and my longboard so i can paddle it out..good luck

I tried NSB yesterday.  Nothing  no sign of bait.  Congrats.

Is that the parking lot just north of the light there?

Sounds like it is the lot on the south side of the NCO (Tides) Club.

Headed out Wed early morning to give it a shot. Hopefully the fish and bait will still be in that area.
