Alissa came down to try and get her first bonefish. The weather didn’t cooperate. We got rained on a good bit. Finally decided to switch it up. At least try to salvage the day with her first peacock bass. We made it to the spot, and I caught a few peas on the long rod. Alissa managed to pull out […]
South Florida Fishin’
Pit Stop in Ft. Myers
On our way back home from Tampa, we decided to stop at Bass Pro in Ft. Myers. I had the bright idea to call up the homie Kyle “Big Snook” Petrick to see if we can get in on some fish. He mentioned the night tide would be great for snook. So Mario and I decided to stick around town […]
Ankona Owners Tournament
As some of you may know, I have a 2012 Ankona Copperhead Gen2. This past Saturday, they had set up a fun fishing tournament for owners of Ankona skiff’s to meet and hang out. Alissa took home the cash winning all three species, and being the only angler to slam. But despite that, I had a great time hanging out […]
FLYmingo ENP
TailingLoop.Tumblr.com Presents: FLYmingo ENP I’m trying to figure out what to do with all this footage. Should I keep it as stock footage in a folder on my MacBook to some day use it for a short film. Or should I just put it out there while it’s relevant. So I’m thinking I might go ahead and start […]
fla·min·go
I made it out to the park with a buddy Dan Decibel to chase some redfish and snook on the long rod. On his first shot of the day, Dan pulled out what became his biggest redfish on fly to date at 28″. I had the bright idea of putting his wading fly basket on and poling myself to a […]
Apparition – Preview
Here’s a preview to a film I’m working on with a couple buddies. It will be showcasing fly fishing for bonefish in South Florida. I feel like the majority of bonefish films are shot in the Bahamas. The film will be showing many different ways to chase this frustration. I’m also working on a video for redfish and snook. Watch […]
Back up Plan
This weekend wasn’t looking too well. The wind predictions were over the roof. So when my buddy Alonzo Sotillo told me he would be coming down to Miami, I took Wednesday off work. We were on our way to the park to chase silver giants. We launched the skiff and headed south. After a 25 miles run, we made it […]
Go Big or Go Home
For the past month or so, a few friends and I have been trash talking back and forth. As the time came closer, the more and more trash was spoken. It was all about the second annual Don’s Bait and Tackle Backcountry Blow Out tournament. Last year, my buddy Alex Hernandez and I managed to take home the prize of […]
Three Weeks of Misery
I haven’t been on the water too much lately. If some may recall, I mentioned on my last blog entry that the day didn’t end too well. I wrecked my truck on the way home. The truck was fine, and so was the skiff. But the trailer, not so much. So I headed up to Ankona Boats in Ft. Pierce […]
Rojo’s and Robalo
Here’s the video from yesterday in the park. The editing was just slapped together rather quickly. Still trying to figure out this GoPro a little more.First scene was shot with my Nikon DSLR.
