Fat Guys in Little Boats
Currently on the way to the Florida Keys for a day of fishing. I writing this blog on behalf of Derek Rust, Jason Fernandez, and Joe Mirrione. For the past couple of weeks we have been mentioning about a tandem canoe with with four us. Yesterday we finally made it happen. We have been wanting to take out Derek for quiet […]
Conformity only restricts you.
There was one point in my life, where I felt held down. Almost like I was being held back from something that I loved. I was stuck in a place where I felt forced to do something, for many reasons. Maybe so I could have more friends, or maybe so I could make other people happy. What I was doing […]
Seasons Change
Sometime around the end of September the season here in Florida begins to change and I personally put on a whole new game face. Casting platforms, fly rods, flies and micros take a backseat to tree stands, bows, guns and camo. The usual late night tarpon runs turn into early morning trips to the woods as tarpon season turns into […]
Tying the KNOT pt. 2
So my bonefishing experience in Hawaii was top notch, even though I never successfully landed one. As for the other fish that filled gaps in between tides… unreal. The bonefish disappeared off the reef when the tides became too low. This provided tons of opportunities to throw at triggerfish that were pushed out of their homes and to tall to […]
Ditch Hiking
You know those days that you just explore and look for fish in every nook and cranny that looks like it could just maybe, maybe hold fish? That was my day today. I changed flies 10 times, shortened my leader, put a longer leader etc. and then tried to throw the spin rod for a little while as well,still nothing […]
Tying the KNOT pt.1
When my fiance and I decided to go to Hawaii for our honeymoon lots of stuff immediately raced through my head; beautiful islands, great weather, taking my first trip with my new wife and way back in the deep dark part of my brain… monster bonefish. So as any good husband does I began to research for our trip. I […]
West And East
I did not fish the tarpon migration this year. Nor did I give chase to hefty spring time redfish wallowing in a meadow of turtle grass or pot-bellied snook foraging before the gentle bubble and foam of a mid-summer beach break. I haven’t even been south of Wall Street in the last six months. All of which is decidedly uncharacteristic behavior for someone […]
Road to Nowhere Trailer
Last May a group of friends traveled from Texas to the primitive snook and tarpon-laden backcountry of the southernmost tip of Florida. We had one goal in mind: to get completely submerged in the Everglades. We wanted to intimately experience the national treasure in the only way we knew how. We crammed our camping and fishing gear into a truck […]
Business Trip
I’ve been a Mercedes Benz technician for a little over 11 years now. One of the perks of my career is that I get to travel from place to place learning about some of the most technologically advanced vehicles on the road. When Mercedes puts out new models or updates old models every few years, they send Technicians like myself […]
