A couple of months ago, I was walking around at work with a sore back. This was not an uncommon experience, as I have been plagued with back pain of varying degrees since injuring myself playing football in college. I tried to sit down, and realized that unlike the other times my back hurt, I could not sit in a […]

Back Up Tails – Islamorada Variety
Last week, fellow blogger Jeremy Loercher hit me up and said he’d be making his way down to the Keys, and asked if I’d hitch up my skiff and meet him in Islamorada to put a bend on the long rods. I checked my schedule and the conditions and agreed. So Sunday night I drove down to the Kon Tiki […]
Solo Mission to Mingo 8/3/13!!!!!! DAMn YOU THERMOS
After working all week long, I needed to get some fishing done. This week I had to work or DJ every single day. A last minute cancellation for my gig on Saturday, gave me a window. Friday night while Djing in South Beach, I was contemplating on wether to hit the park or not! I was very tired at the […]

This past weekend, it was my birthday. And I decided to spend it with a couple of buddies down in Islamorada for some fishing. Mike Rossi had never caught a redfish, so that was on our agenda.

Earlier in the week my friend Robert asked me to take him fishing so he tagged along with me. Robert has never seen […]

Dan and I decided to fish the FFT tournament thrown by the guys at Florida Sportsman down in Flamingo. We decided to fish it with only fly rods, as we normally fish on any given day. But if there was ever a day to actually bring some spinning rods on the skiff, this day would have been […]
Summertime Reds in the Park
Since the weather has been pretty bad lately, I figured I post my last trip on the Diablos to the park. My favorite part of the day was paddling out in slick calm waters of the ENP. We had 3 double hookup with my friend PK. Fly fishing rookie PK caught 7 reds on fly that day. his second time […]
Pumpkins
Over the weekend my buddy Jason and I went exploring. We fished an area neither of us had fished before. It didn’t take long for us to find fish. Jason caught the first redfish within minutes of when we started fishing. From that point forward the fishing was stupid. We saw fish everywhere and they were hard to miss. They […]
