As of lately, I have been flipping a coin for every fishing trip I go on. Usually because I am not sure of where I want to go and it usually has to do a lot with the weather. Fishing has been pretty good despite of the bad weather. There has been couple of windows were you can have a […]
Flipping the Coin
Finding fish
Finding fish has been tough with the low tides and winds of the last week. Finding big fish has been almost impossible for me. That may be because I suck at fishing. That is all.
Here and There
As of Lately the weather hasn’t been great and the waters are up to the roof at times but we still have been able to find fish. I’ve been Fishing on the Kayak, Gheenoe, and Friends’ Boat. Seems whatever craft you are on you are bound to have a great time, unless you find your self with a messed up […]
The feel good story of the year.
This past Sunday night at a benefit for Naples area guide Wes, my buddy Hunter bid on a fly box donated by master fly tier Nick Davis, from 239 Flies. Hunter is pretty new to the fly game, and was able to get his first sight fished Red on the fly this morning, using one of the flies from the box […]
Way In The Back
8+ miles round trip through mangrove tunnels, bouncing off trees, Gators blocking your way, sketch as fuck, sometimes leads to Tarpon that will eat a fly at noon. Sorry for the shitty pics, did I mention the whole trip was Sketchy as hell?

We had a Great time these last couple of days, Met alot of cool people. Exploring the Lagoons was an Awesome feeling, checking out new places we have never fished before. We spent the […]
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
Money, Guns, Flyfishing, Liquor
I own a bait and tackle shop where in the last year I have sent well over 300,000 live Shrimp and Pinfish to their deaths. If Karma is real, I am fucked. However, this death pays the bills. I fly-fish, and own a skiff. I am lucky enough to have a good group of dudes to fish with that […]
Great Company, Bad Conditions
This past weekend, we had an Ankona Owners tournament down in Flamingo. We had a great time fishing an area that not many were familiar with. I’d like to thank Ashley of Don’s Bait & Tackle and Bob Reeves of Strongarm Products for helping us out with everything. There was a ton of fish caught in the tournament. Garret had […]
