These little guys have no idea the havoc they will cause later on in life. They will pull apart marriages, friendships and some peoples sanity. But they will also make a few lifelong friendships and allow adventures unfold in the pursuit of the mighty Silver King. For now, dodging cars on an overcast afternoon is a lighthearted way to […]
“You dont know the lives you will ruin”
F a L L
Well, firstly, I would personally like to welcome Fall back to the Florida Keys. We have been waiting a long time for you… This is hands down my favorite time of year to go fishing for just about everything that swims. The weather is nice….. sometimes, the vast flocks of googans raping the ocean of it’s lobsters are gone, the […]
An African Adventure
Upon seeing that the school year would begin with a 5-day break because of Eid, the end of Ramadan, my first thought was “Where can I go fishing?” By chance, I stumbled upon some information regarding a species of huge fish that can be found, at least for the time being, in a relatively nearby body of freshwater: Lake […]
Not Taking Things For Granted, and Glad To Be Back On The Water.
A couple of months ago, I was walking around at work with a sore back. This was not an uncommon experience, as I have been plagued with back pain of varying degrees since injuring myself playing football in college. I tried to sit down, and realized that unlike the other times my back hurt, I could not sit in a […]
Shenandoah Bachelor Party
With a week to go before the wedding, a group of guys convened in Shenandoah National Park for the bachelor party. This place is an absolute gem and never disappoints, even if the weather is something less than cooperative.
Fly Night at Rainer and Noel’s
Our buddy Rainer invited a few guys over his place to drink some booze, tie some flies and hang out. So a few of us went over and had a ball. We got there slightly earlier than the fly tying would be going down, so we messed around with Rainer’s 3 and 5 wt fly rods in his back yard. […]
Fishoutawata Music Festival
About a month ago, I agreed to do some live painting at an event in the Brickell/Downtown Miami area. It was a music festival titled “Fishoutawata” by “The Cornerstoners”. I was one of four artist to be live painting. The artists involved were “Bruno Vago”, “Kazilla”, “Registered Artist” and myself. There was some awesome live music, and a great atmosphere. […]
Cliches and Shit
El Chupacabra
My brother Matt was married on a Friday evening in the Poconos to his ultimate catch, Stacy. The wedding party spent the weekend at a lake house nearby and word on the street was that there were hordes of carp inhabiting the waterway. Needless to say, but along with my wedding attire I packed a truck load of fishing equipment […]
Ailing Afternoon Drive
After being trapped all day in bed with a fever, I decided to get out in hopes that it would at least clear my mind. So I made a call and was on my way. My buddy Warren Chin and I stopped by Strongarm Products new facility to check it out. Of course, we brought fly rods with us, as […]
