Five tarpon 148 pounds and up took the top five places in the Miller High Life Professional Tarpon Tournament Series at Boca Grande Pass Sunday.

Jeff Totten of Englewood and his team won the series' second event with a 174-pounder, the largest of the first two tournaments.

There were 50 boats that landed 72 tarpon in the three-hour tournament.

Totten said he used side-imaging Humminbird electronics to locate a small pod away from the pack.

174 pounds?? :o

I didn't know that they are issuing submarine hunting licences on tournaments.

Seriously, how long is such a fish?
