Tarpon Tales and Sport Fishing in Early Florida April 21, 2009

Tarpon Tales and Sport Fishing in Early Florida examines the phenomena of sport fishing from the late 1800s to the 1930s on the west coast of Florida. While sitting in a Hemingway era fighting chair, a visitors fantasy of the great catch will be enhanced by vintage photographs, mounted fish, rods, Edward vom Hofe reels, lures, tackle, gear, nets and souvenir tarpon scales. Tarpon Tales and Sport Fishing in Early Florida continues through December 27, 2009.
