SWC Ditch Kids Week Three
Pitted
By: Jason Fernandez I am completely and utterly consumed with fishing, there’s not one cohesive/coherent thought that traverses my mind on a daily basis that doesn’t originate or conclude with angling. Since last year’s commitment to chase what swims as a career, it’s been what I imagine to be a big wave surfers quest to conquer the pipelines. Not just […]

Hemingway Type Stuff
I first met Capt. Derek Rust at the SWC Christmas party this past December. I knew about him through some of the SWC guys and heard nothing but great things about the guy. So meeting and talking to him was pretty exciting, not like a teenage girl meeting Justin Bieber, but it may have been close. Little did I know my wife […]

Backyard Awesomeness
Had the day off yesterday and the weather was amazing. Fished the Everglades National Park with my good friend John. We spent most of the day looking for tailing reds and despite the perfect conditions the fish were hard to find. I feel blessed to have this giant fishing playground in my back yard and love the opportunity to fish […]
Tying the KNOT pt.1
When my fiance and I decided to go to Hawaii for our honeymoon lots of stuff immediately raced through my head; beautiful islands, great weather, taking my first trip with my new wife and way back in the deep dark part of my brain… monster bonefish. So as any good husband does I began to research for our trip. I […]
Long H i atus
To say that I haven’t posted anything in a long while would be an understatement. I have a list of excuses, but I don’t even want to hear them myself. Busy season lasted longer than it ever has for me this year, which is hard to complain about. Getting to fish for a living is a dream job to me, […]
