At first glance the muddy flats of the Upper Texas Coast aren’t exactly enticing to a sight fisherman. Let’s not kid ourselves these aren’t the pristine flats of Andros, Belize, The Keys, or even the Lower Coast. Our marshes are unwadeable. That is, unless you enjoy trekking through waist-deep mud. Water clarity is often limited to a few inches of […]
Audible Fishing
Redemption, Some What…
I have fished two tournaments in month of July. Both tournaments, I was able to find some large fish. But for whatever reason, I was unable to get the fish to eat, stick, or get them in the boat. But finally, I was able to go back to the same locations and have at them. This time with a fly […]
Lydia Ann Fly Masters Tourney
I fished the Lydia Ann Fly Masters tournament out of Aransas Pass last Saturday. The weigh was at Tarpon Shores Marina. The 2012 beneficiary was Casting for Recovery. It’s a catch and release fly fishing only tournament. The only tournament of it’s kind here in Texas. There were two categories one for redfish and the other a “open species” category […]
Canvas&Acrylics… Again!
Well here are a few more paintings I have done. These are all up for grabs. Although this Bonefish one does match my room color scheme perfectly. Selling it will make more room for more canvas.
Everglades National Park
You know the artwork from the Marsh Dawn Hat? (see pic below) That exists in real life, it’s your typical summer day in Everglades National Park. You enter the park boundaries. You are in awe of the sunrise and beauty of all the wildlife. Redfish tail everywhere and eat anything you throw at them all morning. Eventually the winds […]
Deadliest Catch – Flamingo FFT
I made it down to the park with Mario. We chased around the big reds and snook all morning in the super skinny. But then the wind decided to turn and kick up to 30mph. So, mario blind casting with the spinner felt something. he reeled in and turned out he somehow hooked a crab around the claw….lol Hit the […]
Marsh Donks
The fishing has been good on the Upper Texas Coast when I have been able to get out between the storms that have been rolling through from the Gulf. I’ve got rained-out a few times lately, but I’m not complaining because we need the rain. Especially after the historic drought last year. The marshes on the Upper Texas Coast are […]
Canvas and Acrylics
Throughout the NBA playoffs, I found myself far too into what was an emotional roller coaster. Feeling great at the highest points, and feeling like gum on the bottom of a carny’s shoe at the lowest. So when the Miami Heat finally made it to the Finals, I knew it was going to be brutal. I had to find something […]
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 […]
