Warren just picked up his first fly combo, and called me this morning itchin’ to put it to work. So we went and had lunch at a cuban restaurant, then were on our way to the grounds. Made quick work of some peacock bass. Warren got a nice one as his first fish on the rod. I somehow forgot […]
Taking it Back Sunday?
Long Rod Athletes at Work

I used to hate tying flies
My buddy Pat helped me tighten my fly tying game up a bit recently and I started to actually use some of the materials I have to tie some shit. I tied this little baitfish with Marabou, Ostrich, flash, and EP Streamer Brush and Sparkle Brush. And then was surprised when it actually caught fish: Other photos from the last few […]

Redfish That Act Like Bonefish
Trying to sight fish reds in the Everglades can be pretty frustrating. Today was one of those days. The Reds were mudding in water that barely covered their backs and were spooky as hell. A couple turned on the fly then spooked. As soon as the tide changed I found the dumb one: Photo Via: Rich Jones
In Honor of Throwback Thursday
Well, here’s what I did before fishing. I was big into the local Lowrider scene. This was my 1986 Buick Regal. It had a 4 pump hydraulic setup, on 13’s for a while. But it had powdercoated 14’s before I took it apart.
$Money$
I pretty much hate tying flies. I will in a pinch, but I have friends who like to tie who are nice people. This little thing, tied by Pat Blake, went out fighting over the weekend. In two days it caught: Two tarpon, two snook, five reds, a nice Trout, and some Snapper and Ladyfish. Deerhair, flash, and a Tiemco […]
