I was down in the park today with Mr. Dan Decibel on my Copperhead. As I’m sure you would be surprised to hear, the objective was to get on the reds with the fly rod……………. We found them waving us down at every flat we pulled up to. Stay tuned!….

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 […]
“Sabalo Gigante: A Tale of an Obessession”
This is a project that I’ve had under wraps for quite some time now. I finally got it done. I got together with a couple buddies to bring you this hardcore fly fishing for Tarpon short film. Fishing South Florida for Giant Tarpon during the Migration is as Real as it Gets. This feat cannot be achieved without nerves of […]
Choko Loco

I started the morning with a couple of small snooks biggest one was about 21 inches had a lot of fun catching the snooks on topwater fly. I moved on to some stronger current edges and hidden creeks that had hard bottom so i […]
Everything is Copper
I made it down to Flamingo to complete my birthday week on the water. I was fishing with my buddy Mario. The objective was to pound the redfish with the long rod. Mario had only caught 2 maybe 3 reds on fly in the past, none over 14″. I told him about the madness that had been going on throughout […]
Flamingo Bound
Headed to Flamingo in the am. Hope to find some snook in the morning.
Fireworks in Flamingo
I was down in the park for one of my routine visits, on Independence Day. While I was out fishing, word had spread that there was a fire in the park. The one road in and out had been shut down. The fire burned roadside and even jumped the road. And spread into the depths of the park. But with […]
fla·min·go
I made it out to the park with a buddy Dan Decibel to chase some redfish and snook on the long rod. On his first shot of the day, Dan pulled out what became his biggest redfish on fly to date at 28″. I had the bright idea of putting his wading fly basket on and poling myself to a […]
Go Big or Go Home
For the past month or so, a few friends and I have been trash talking back and forth. As the time came closer, the more and more trash was spoken. It was all about the second annual Don’s Bait and Tackle Backcountry Blow Out tournament. Last year, my buddy Alex Hernandez and I managed to take home the prize of […]
