I feel as if the past two months, it has been endless days of sustained winds of over 20knts. It has made it tough, but sometimes you just got to tough it out and do some fishing. Going out to Flamingo when it’s blowing 30mph is always an adventure. Especially when you decide to run 30+ miles through open water, […]

Peacock Fishing
This week I focused on some peacock fishing. The weather has been pretty hot and the fish have been biting. I’ve been fishing with my friend Danny most of the time and Warren made an appearance this saturday. Most of the fish have been pretty nice size. When I went out saturday morning I saw a huge peacock laid up. […]
Fire!
Six years ago I left south Florida, where my angling heart will forever lie, for New York City. I took a job with one of the preeminent seafood wholesalers in NYC, to run their twenty-five seat oyster bar and grill in Murray Hill, feeling at the time that if I was no longer able to launch odd and colorfully adorned, […]
Fishing as of lately
Well its almost spring and it seems like the fish are biting. Ive been going out and it has been pretty good. Somedays are really good and some days are not so good. It usually has to do with the wind situation. Calm mornings has been really good but around 10 am the wind starts kicking and everything goes to […]
Bonefish w/the SWC Godfather and Gentlebro
I can’t do it justice….but here it goes. Vince, the godfather of SWC recently made the journey to the Keys to catch his first bonefish on fly. This was his only shot…one day, one chance to catch his first bone on fly before the big Bahamas trip. Luckily we had one of the finest guides in the Keys to make […]
NOLA
For a long time now I have been dreaming about going to New Orleans to fish the marsh for giant swamp donkey redfish. And, a little over a week ago, I finally made it happen. This trip has been a long time coming, and , was worth all the time, money, planning and effort. What a truly remarkable fishery they […]
Last Pass
Somewhere between New Zealand and Mongolia lies Central Oregon. Within the gin-like tributaries of the area are the trout that time left behind. The bull trout is nothing more than a landlocked dollay varden char, that attain amazing size and take giant prey. They come out of lakes or even larger river systems to spawn in the smaller tribs. […]
Flipping the Coin
As of lately, I have been flipping a coin for every fishing trip I go on. Usually because I am not sure of where I want to go and it usually has to do a lot with the weather. Fishing has been pretty good despite of the bad weather. There has been couple of windows were you can have a […]
Carp Flies: Part Two
Out of pure respect, all my flies are barbed…
Mass Unfriend/ Upriver
So I’ve been really turned off by Facebook lately. Really turned off. Can’t even look at it. Too much bitching about the worldly things that I just don’t care about. So I said to myself today, “I guess I wouldn’t mind it so much if I could actually tell people how I feel about what they are saying.” I’m a […]
