The difference between breaking strain and the “X” system. Yes it is mid-winter here in Wales freezing cold and the prospects for any fishing even Euro-nymphing for grayling are severely limited. We have had nothing but rain for weeks and the rivers are in spate. But with no fishing expeditions to write about I have […]

Mid-winter fishing conditions are in full swing across the Naples and Marco Island backcountry including the Rookery Bay Preserve and that means productive fishing deeper in the creeks bays and mangrove shorelines. Cooler water temperatures push fish into these protected areas creating excellent opportunities for consistent action and mixed-bag da...

If you spend enough days nymphing rivers like the Missouri you eventually stop arguing about whether a 10-foot fly rod is worth it and start wondering how you ever lived without one. For years 9-foot rods were staples. They were versatile familiar and “standard.” But modern nymphing—especially on big technical tailwaters—has evolved. Deeper rigs l...

OFFSHORE- Another week of scattered sailfish action; with boats trolling up to the north picking away at a few sails and the live baiters getting chances south of Jupiter Inlet. A few dolphin have been mixed in with the sailfish along with the occasional wahoo and blackfin tuna. Most of the live bait action has been from the Juno Beach Pier to Jupi...

Key West fishing report for January 28 2026 is a chilly one. The Florida Keys in Key West are experiencing one of the coldest winters since 2010. Air temps down into the low 50s and with the north west and north winds over 20 kn can bring the wind chills down to the 40s. Not exactly Chamber of Commerce weather and there is more to come this coming...

The winter season is what I’ve always said to be the best time of year to fish Lake Taneycomo.  Why?  Because of low fishing pressure coupled with the abundance of fish in the lake especially larger rainbows below Fall Creek (out of the trophy area).  I believe typically bigger mature trout move out of the […] The post January 28 2026 Fishing Repo...

Inshore Fishing Report  January was definitely a chilly one for us Floridians. It was even a cold month for some of our out of state guests!

Water Level: 294.28 | Water Temperature: 42.4˚ Weather: 17˚ | Mostly Cloudy | Winds: 5 mph 1. Striper: Fishing remains productive using live bait and 3/8 ounce bucktails especially near Rudds Creek Bridge and old river channel bends. Slow presentations in deeper water (15-25 feet) yield the best results. 2. Largemouth Bass: Bass are holding […]

Snake River Eddies and ledge rock pools remain the best water to target with nymph rigs and dry flies.  The sweet spot has been in a tight window from between noon and 2 PM most days.  Midge imitations and soft hackle patterns have been effective below the surface with midge adult and midge cluster patterns working best on the surface and in notic...

Today was just plain cold. We’ve had duck hunters come in and say how brutally cold this morning’s hunts were but ducks were out there like crazy. So many redheads flying around.

If you’ve followed Knox Robinson’s writing for any period of time you know — the guy gets after it on his yak and he makes a consistent effort to always find a new place to wet a line across the long list of lakes and waterways that comprise Central Florida’s expansive world famous bass fishery. That’s why his perspective is especially valuable in...

After a very unusual bout of cold weather 70 degree temperatures and the new moon have the bass on the move. The bass are in 3 phases at guntersville right now. There is a big group out deep roaming around eating shad in their winter pattern and it will be April before they think about moving shallow. There is a group preparing to move up on...

Cool weather over the past few days combined with persistent north winds has cleared up the backcountry water and produced some of the lowest tides we’ve seen recently. These conditions have concentrated fish and set up excellent opportunities throughout the Naples and Marco Island backcountry. Speckled trout fishing has been particularly strong e...
