Finding fish has been tough with the low tides and winds of the last week. Finding big fish has been almost impossible for me. That may be because I suck at fishing. That is all.
Finding fish
Here and There
As of Lately the weather hasn’t been great and the waters are up to the roof at times but we still have been able to find fish. I’ve been Fishing on the Kayak, Gheenoe, and Friends’ Boat. Seems whatever craft you are on you are bound to have a great time, unless you find your self with a messed up […]
G lassed Out
I spent the other day fishing for a few hours in the Glades with my buddy Mike and my Chowda Dogg. The conditions were like you read about….. glass calm, not a cloud in sight, and complete blue bird skies. We had the place all to ourselves. Post front winter time fishing can be great and often times you get […]
Picture Perfect
As anglers were subject to the constraints of the tyrant named Mother Nature. She does what she pleases. We’re merely hostages to her moody behavior. Every now and then she’ll smile down and grant us passage on a picturesque day. On rare occasions she’ll string two or more blissful days together for us to enjoy her splendor. Two weeks ago […]
Black Friday
I decided to use the skiff to mothership my kayak today. I explored some new territory and tried to hide from the wind. The gators had the place on lockdown. When you come face to face with these dinosaurs in the mangrove tunnels you have two options. Turnaround and go home or roll the dice and try to squeeze by […]
We Saved a Dolphin
The weekend started off with an early morning stroll down the beach… …with a pimped out canoe in tow and a convoy of trucks and skiffs following not far behind. We stumbled across a creature washed up and struggling to find it’s way back into the water. Brandon slammed on the brakes, jumped out of the truck and rushed to […]
Birthday Permit
Yesterday, I spent a few hours on the water with a great friend Mike O, and my faithful labrador Chowda. We were doing a little bit of scouting, and generally just goofing around. We were running out of time and had just a little bit of sun left, so we decided to try to get Mike his first rubber […]
The feel good story of the year.
This past Sunday night at a benefit for Naples area guide Wes, my buddy Hunter bid on a fly box donated by master fly tier Nick Davis, from 239 Flies. Hunter is pretty new to the fly game, and was able to get his first sight fished Red on the fly this morning, using one of the flies from the box […]
Bad Sun Rising…
Forgot how much I enjoyed early morning drives to the water. Its nice to forget the shitty work week for a change and join a bud for a quick redfish trip. The sound of stepping on the boat brings back old memories of past fishing trips. Its been awhile ol friend. Being away from the water so long I consistantly found myself doing a […]
Jax Mud Fishin’… BeeeyaaaHHHHAA
Well my buddy J got his new IPB the other day so we set out Sunday morning to break it in. The weather was exactly what you would ask for if you could ask for weather. About 65 degrees, zero wind, clear (cough cough) water and plenty of sun. To make a long story short, since I know you guys […]
