After three days on my brother’s home island we embarked for the last time to another island, a little ways northeast, that is home to robust flats and large bonefish. I picked Matt up from school on a Friday afternoon, rescuing him from cleaning up his classroom, and we embarked on the afternoon ferry for a weekend of fishing. On […]
Hook Ups and Cold Shoulders
Time Well Spent
With the guide season finally slowing down, I have actually had some time to get out on the water lately to do some fishing with my good buddy Chris Lewis. I have also have been able to get back to my roots out on foot doing some wade fishing in the evenings with my boy Mike O and Chowda Dog […]
Knowing What To Look For
By the third day I had fallen into a routine. Adjusting to “island” time, I found myself sleeping in late, sitting and enjoying the view on the porch, and maybe fishing for an hour or two before picking up my brother from school. With bonefishing being as difficult as it is on the island, I learned over the past few […]
You don’t know Jack!
Unfortunately…yes, yes I do know Jack. I saw some bonefish cruising around but I was having trouble getting close…I decided to hope out and go after them on foot. I waited a few minutes and two nice pushes come down the flat. Put the shot right on them and hooked up instantly. Next came the blazing run…Hell yes! Bonefish on! […]
It’s That Time of the Year
You ready?
Flying Solo
With my brother still teaching for most of the trip, I was flying solo around the islands and hitting up some favorite spots for the last time. This meant that I would have little opportunity to get some proper images. Most of the images from the trip will be GoPro video stills (sorry everybody). Last year we explored a more […]
South Florida Fishin’
Alissa came down to try and get her first bonefish. The weather didn’t cooperate. We got rained on a good bit. Finally decided to switch it up. At least try to salvage the day with her first peacock bass. We made it to the spot, and I caught a few peas on the long rod. Alissa managed to pull out […]
7/5/12 Biscayne
I finally got back on the water for the first time in over two weeks. I had good buddy Captain Derek Rust onboard today. He scored this beautiful bonefish on the first cast of the morning….it all went down in perfect fashion. Next spot I got a good shot at a permit following a ray, but the permit was absolutely […]
Apparition – Preview
Here’s a preview to a film I’m working on with a couple buddies. It will be showcasing fly fishing for bonefish in South Florida. I feel like the majority of bonefish films are shot in the Bahamas. The film will be showing many different ways to chase this frustration. I’m also working on a video for redfish and snook. Watch […]
