With day one in the books I was ready for an encore. Catching my first tuna and dolphin was a blast, but there was more fish to be caught. The morning ritual started just as the day before, creating pancakes out of a 12′ wide monofilament, lead-weighted net.
Summer on the Road Part III
25 Tarpon
My friend Richard, fellow NYC angler and aficionado of the southern skinny, sent me this video he put together from his last trip down to the wilds of the Florida Bay and the Keys. They launched a shit load of silver and got a bunch of fish to hand. It’s jealousy inducing and also prettay, prettay, prettay fucking cool. Watch it and enjoy. 25 tarpon from […]
…Some fishing Lately…
I want to start by apologizing for the lack of blogging. I have been really lazy lately and it has gotten the best of me. Aside from that I hope everyone has been out fishing and having some fun. Since I haven’t posted in a while I have tons of pics that I would like to share with you guys. […]
Summer on the Road Part II
It’s been a while. Where did I leave off? Oh ya, I left off in late August. After spending a week in the Louisiana marsh as an instructor for Outdoor Texas Camps I had a few weeks off before I would be leaving for Florida in the middle of September.

Bar Tricks
It has been more than three full months since I have been able to fly a loop, with its tiny payload of steel and fur and feather, towards the scaled, torsional flesh of a gamefish. And, what is perhaps even worse, is that it has been almost as long since I’ve been afforded the time to sit down and write. […]
First post of 2014
Happy New Years everyone, on my behalf. I hope everyone is doing great and looking forward to this upcoming year. Let me start by saying my New Years resolution was take all pics in black and white. Hopefully I can keep that promise until the end of the Year. Anyways, I’ve been doing some fishing lately, specially in the Christmas […]
Next Day Mail
It has been tough fishing the last few weeks. This time last year there was not a flake of snow on the ground. Carp, steelhead, and pike were still cooperating and life was good. This year we seem to be back into our “traditional Midwestern winter.” This can be a blessing and a curse. I decided in the Fall that […]
SWC Christmas Party Weekend
This past weekend SWC hosted their Annual Christmas party, that took place in IC Sharks located in Tampa. I had to drive alone because I had no one to go with. The plan was to meet up and go fishing with a buddy of mine, Gavin Greco, who lives in the Naples Area. After I finished Djing on Friday night […]
Fishing before work
Headed out today in the morning with Ryan Accursio on his gheenoe. He invited me last minute on tuesday to see if we can get a bit of fishing before going into work at noon. Well it was 5am and Ryan was nowhere to be found. The plan was to meet at the gas station at 6 am. I called […]
Summer on the Road Part I
Ever since I was a little boy I had an innate appetite to see the world. As much as I enjoy fishing my home waters of the Upper Texas Coast I often grow tired fishing familiar venues. Periodically, I feel the urge to get away even if that entails stepping outside my zone of comfort.
