Ghost of the Bait Ball – Tarpon Watercolor Print (11” x 8”)

"Ghost of the Bait Ball” captures the raw power and quiet precision of a tarpon as it glides through a dense cloud of fleeing baitfish. Painted in layered washes of watercolor, this piece blends motion, depth, and subtle detail to evoke the moment every saltwater angler dreams of—when a silver king materializes out of green water.

Originally painted by Nolan Bluntzer, this artwork reflects a lifelong connection to fishing, travel, and wild places. The loose, fluid brushstrokes mirror the movement of the ocean itself, while the tarpon’s form remains unmistakably bold and commanding.

This is a high-quality print of the original watercolor, sized at 11” x 8”, making it perfect for:

• Home offices

• Fishing lodges

• Beach houses

• Fly shops

• Angler gifts

Whether you’ve chased tarpon on the flats or simply admire one of the ocean’s most iconic gamefish, this piece brings saltwater energy and coastal calm into any space.
