With a week to go before the wedding, a group of guys convened in Shenandoah National Park for the bachelor party. This place is an absolute gem and never disappoints, even if the weather is something less than cooperative.
Shenandoah Bachelor Party
The End Is Near
With the guide season coming to a fast approaching close, the anticipation of some time off is hard to bare. In 2 weeks, we make our return to the Bahamas for the 3rd SWC Bahamas Bonefish Beat Down, and I can’t think of a better way to end a long guide season. Good friends, Kalik, conch salad , monster bones…… […]
Magicicadas
Upon first hearing that the periodical magicicadas would be emerging en masse upon the eastern Mid-Atlantic region in 2013, I was pumped to say the very least. Months leading up to the brood II emergence, a day could not go by without me at least thinking about them and the possibilities in store. Having missed out on them in […]
Mothershipping to Mingo in horrible winds.
It was tuesday evening, I had just gotten back from a quick freshwater tarpon session. I got call from Kent and Alex about mother shipping the yaks to mingo. Since the forecast was calling for 15-20 knot winds. I was skeptical at first but then gave in to temptation. I really dont know how we were able to cram in […]
Mingo to Marathon
About Two weeks ago I got some kayaks/SUP from Diablo Paddlesports. Since I haven’t kayak fish in the last couple of months, all I’ve been craving is fishing these paddle boards ever since I took them out for the first time to the Marquesas with Chris Lewis. So this past Friday night I decided to check the weather and it proofed […]
Glutton for Punishment
My buddy John and I have talked about fishing the Everglades for big snook for years. Both of us have caught our fair share of Texas Linesiders (see photos below), but the primitive snook and tarpon-laden backcountry of southernmost tip of Florida has always peaked our interest. When I envisioned fishing The Everglades I pictured behemoth snook and laid-up poon […]
Fear and Loathing in Flamingo
Their time had grown short. One hour. Two at most. Shadows had beset them. He craned his neck and peered up at the sky. Limpid blue and full of astringent afternoon light. He shielded his eyes against it. Hung near the meridian of its descent the sun was bleached with starry white and free of the burnt orange tarnish wrought […]

2012 Wrap Up Kayak/Skiff Fishing
A buddy of mine, Brandon Hicks, put this video together. It’s a recap of his 2012 fishing exploits. Some of the footage was from several trips we made together over the year including the best weekend of redfishing I’ve ever experienced. This video has a little something for everyone. Skiffs, canoes, kayaks, scooters, redfish, trout, drum, flounder, surf fishing, fly […]
A Wild One
It is Thanksgiving break and my father asked me to go fishing. His requests usually revolve around the game of golf, which I like, its just that compared to fly fishing, golf sucks. Naturally, I accepted the offer to go fishing and we awoke on a cold morning to head to a local tributary.
