Who do you think caught more?

Our boat? (Two redfish.)

New Fishing Blogs on the Scene

Posted in Florida, Fly Fishing, Freshwater, Inshore, Media, Other Blogs, Travel, tagged on August 18, 2008 | No Comments »

Via the Day Tripper:
After being waylaid by the last round of hurricanes in Aught Five, the Flamingo lodge has laid dormant like a ghost town at the gateway to some serious fishing. Now they’re going to rebuild it in an eco-friendly manner. Sign me up when it comes to pass.

(A bonnethead….)
Going back down there this week. Baby tarpon and redfish with an 8w are on the mind, but if a bonnethead swims by that wants to take a bucktail on a spinner, who am I to say no? (It is shark week, after all.)

NORTH COUNTRY: Loons and Smallmouth

Posted in Fly Fishing, Freshwater, Northeast, Travel, tagged , , on July 7, 2008 | 1 Comment »

Last week brought about the annual 4th of July split trip between the St. Lawrence River and the Adirondacks. Fishing in July is not always optimal so we spent most of our time on the water wakeboarding, waterskiing, and tubing, but on the River we managed to bag smallmouth bass at the right times.
