No Tarpon, But a 36-Year-Old Record Broken

There were no tarpon logged at the weigh in of the 66th annual Golden Meadow Fourchon International Tarpon Rodeo in Port Fourchon, Louisiana. But angler Chad Galliano broke a rodeo record that had stood since 1978.

Back in 1978 Baton rouge Rodeo angler Buck Gladden brought to weigh in a 51-pound, 8-ounce bull dolphin that stood as the Rodeo record until this weekend.

Chad Galliano’s 57-pound, 8-ounce bull now holds the top spot in the record book.

While angler Boo Langolis didn’t set any records, his 50-pound 11-ounce black fin shark certainly drew some attention at the weigh in.
