Yellow Jacket Creek Boat Ramp

I was hoping to take Thanksgiving day off and work the day before BUT my two charters for Wednesday cancelled one due to weather and the other due to illness so I ended up working today.  On the brightside I got to fish with Scot and his family

Another two boat trip today and I had the girls mom Julie with Rebecca and Amanda while the boys were in the second boat and once again they wanted to stay close to each other.  This worked against the boys as the girls outfished them 5 to 1 ca

Okay let me preface my next comment by saying I am NOT complaining.  Ok with that out of the way this summer has been stupid ridiculous with respect to how awesome bonefishing has been with today being a prime example.  I had regular clien

 I fished with Stefan once before and he was back today with his friend Eugene and his 10 year old son Marlon.  They wanted dinner so we looked for pilchards but they were MIA hmmm that stinks.  No worries I had plenty of live shrimp

Local clients Maria and Elissa booked me for a half day after almost a year of them working way too much.  They always like to fish for dinner trade fish for mangos with their neighbor.  LOL  The first few spots proved slow with small

Sundays is the busiest boating day of the week and I don't like running two trips on a Sunday but the weather was chilly so I figured it would keep most boaters away and it did.  In the morning I had Dave from Idaho and he wanted to try bon

I had Bryan today for some bonefishing but he wanted a back up plan to ensure he caught some fish.  We fished high and low for bonefish and they were MIA with the water temps being 88.5 degrees.  Ouch!  Keeping the trip moving I took

Ok I realize the title sounds bad but read on.   Mike emailed me at the last minute asking if I was available Sunday afternoon.  Ouch that is the worst time to fish in Miami due to the heavy boat traffic and the water being pounded al

Well there's been a little bit of everything the last few days while doing some Islamorada Fishing. Last Thursday aboard the BNM we had Steve Openshaw and Dave Woodworth from England both catch and release their very first broadbill swordfish. T

A bit unusual. Never caught one quite this big. Darryl caught this yellow jack. It is actually named yellow jack.

Great one day OK the next that's how it's been the week.  Today I had Peter for a 6 hour trip for an all around mixed bag of fishing.  We started off bone fishing and after much work we landed one and missed a couple of bites. 

  The week of Thanksgiving always finds me busy but boy this was another level. I had regular client David and his friend Clay on Sunday for a six hour trip fly fishing for bonefish tarpon permit and then a four hour trip in the afternoon with

Here we go my favorite time of year and right before I took off on vacation I was pretty busy already with god groups and great fishing.  The trips ranged from a guy's drinking trip with fishing rods to hunting down bonefish and permit. &nb

This morning I fished with Jake for a 6 hour charter.  Last time we fished Jan caught 11 bonefish!  Today we were looking for permit and some dinner.  The weather was perfect as it usually is in October and off we went.  The scho

OK here we go again!  I had a double today both trips with great long time clients and as I always mention I have to be ready to change it up at a moments notice.  Staying flexible throughout a trip or throughout the course of the day is i

The last week and a half have been a bit tough on the water due to unusually high winds in the 20-25 MPH range and huge tides.  The bulk of what I was booked for was just catching fish so we did just that but we had to pick our spots due to the

I always like to end the month on a high note and June was no exception.  Man was it hot today as Fax and I chased bonefish on fly!  We started at 7am and by 8:30am it was scorching.  As I poled all morning long after schools of bonef
