Slamming at once

Hi Captain Eric here and I have been meaning to post lately but I have been kinda slacking. I have one good story that I have been holding on to for about a month now and I feel I should share it. I took a group out that caught not only all of my favorite species but at the same time. The group started out their morning by catching some nice Black drum, Snook, and Reds. They were having a great day and the fish were really turned on by both of our offerings of shrimp and white bait. Then something I have never seen before took place right in front of me. One young man hooked a baby Tarpon about 20 pounds and while I was tending to him another fellow hooked up and landed a Snook. The third gentleman was also fighting something and to my amazement he landed a good sized Red fish. We released the Snook and then released the small Tarpon. A Grand Slam simultaneously. That was awesome. All fish were returned to to there homes and should be there for the next go round.
