Rodrigo and Claudio are in town on business from Brazil. They wanted to sneak away and do some sight fishing in the Everglades. We started the morning with jumping some mini tarpon and catching some nice snook. Here’s Claudio with one of his many snook on the day. Antabuse blocks an enzyme that is involved…
I finally got the opportunity to fish the Herman Lucerne Memorial Fishing Tournament. It’s a unique tournament, which you need to catch 7 species in Everglades National Park. One of the reasons I loved fishing this Tourney is because all the proceeds go right to the Everglades. They have a bunch of divisions which included…

A lot of times I get asked, “What is Inshore Fishing?” Inshore fishing is fishing over shallow waters close to shore. For example, bays, estuaries, and locally, Everglades National Park which is considered a “World-Class Fishery.” Inshore fishing is one of the most exciting ways to catch fish because it’s done in shallow water and…
Tough conditions made fishing up on the flats anything but ideal. We started the morning in a light drizzle with the fly rod, casting at some rolling tarpon.

Sight fishing on the flats is deffinitely one of may favorite styles of fishing. It can be a challenge if you have never done this before, but an…
Late summer is one of the best times in the Glades to catch a slam. An Everglades slam is a snook, redfish, tarpon, and trout, all caught in one day. The variety of fishing Flamingo this time of the year is the reason it’s my favorite. We have been really hammering the flats out front…
Up on the flats hunting tailers with Jan Maizler and Alan Williams. Sight fishing for tailing reds is deffinitely one of the most exciting ways to chase them. Antabuse blocks an enzyme that is involved in metabolizing alcohol intake. Used as part of a treatment plan for problem drinking. Other remedies are used to…
We have had some summer like conditions lately, with extreme heat and light winds. If you can handle the heat, the sight fishing is really good. You just have to get out as the sun is coming up and get on that morning bite, because its a good one. Tarpon rolling in the morning with…
