We had a beautiful morning today to wrap up the week before the holiday weekend when I met John Raker and his mother Betty out at Goffinsville Park boat ramp. We eased north and around Seymore's Pointe and tried some float rigs and live shrimp on a tide that had been going out for about an hour. Both Betty and John were getting excellent drifts -...

We had a nice breezy morning today just enough to keep it from getting hot. I had met David Wanda and Charlie Morton up at Old Town Bait and Tackle on a tide that had been going out for about 2 hours. We eased out of Eagans Creek and made a short run over to Lanceford Creek to fish some dock pilings with jigs and live shrimp. Wanda knocked the sku...

The tide had be...

We had the prettiest day all week - sunshine with a just a cloud now and then not too hot not too cool and just a faint amount of breeze to keep the bugs off. After meeting Rich Voelbel and his fishing partner Steve down at Sawpit Creek boat ramp we made our way up the Nassau and ran all the way up to Broward Island to fish the first of an incomi...

We had a beautiful day this morning but when I stepped out to get the boat ready the flags on the front of the house were blowing and I said uh-oh. When I came back in to have a little breakfast I checked the weather again - sunshine with wind holding steady at 12mph.  That's really not bad but just enough to be aggravating to casters who would b...

I would have bet a dollar that...

I went back south today to fish with Glenn and Patti Lanford. We met down at the Sawpit Creek boat ramp and quickly got under way  - the No SeeUms were about to carry us off! But luckily as we ran up the river the breeze picked up and they were never an issue for the rest of the morning. The tide had been going out for about two hours as we eased...
