The wind has been relentless over the past few weeks, but the fishing has remained strong. The tarpon around most days and we have been spending a lot time chasing them. We are getting some great shots and hooking some big fish. The flats have had lots of life of them, when the wind gives…
Still plenty of tarpon around in the Everglades. We have had some good laid up shots and shots on crusiing fish. Getting plenty of bites from some big fish lately. The tarpon fishing should remain good going right into the Summer. Here is Brendan with a little baby he got on a topwater plug. Antabuse…
We had a some pretty good weather and fishing this past week. Alot of life on the flats, with plenty of shots on redfish and snook. We also had a few heart breaks this week as well. Hooking a few triple digit tarpon on fly and losing them after a long battle is sometimes tough…
It has been a pretty windy week down in the Everglades. The snook fishing will be getting better everyday and the key is to get on them early. I have been using an EP baitfish pattern fly lately, with lots of success on tarpon and snook. We had a couple of days this week where…
Tim Harden of The Fly Fishing Directory, joined me for a day in the Glades. Tim is a hardcore fly angler from California and has been gearing up for this trip for a while now. His goal was simple, Tarpon on fly. After an hour or so of casting to rolling tarpon, Tim made the…
We found a ton of 15-25 inch snook the last few days in the “way back country” Good to see the snook numbers back there. We got them on top and with baitfish pattern flies. Jean-Stephan with a Glades snook. Antabuse blocks an enzyme that is involved in metabolizing alcohol intake. Used as part of…
One of the many reasons I love fishing the Everglades so much is because of the diversity of the fishery. This week definitely showed us how diverse it can be. We had some calm days, which had us out on the flats with redfish, snook, trout, tarpon, and sharks. The days we had to get…
I have spent this past week fishing deep in the Everglades due to the typical March winds. We have been pounding the bushes with flies and having lots of succes with snook and redfish. We are even getting into some chunky largemouth bass in some of the same waters. While hammering a shorline yesterday, we…
Having the right tide is extremely important in targeting redfish in shallow water. The redfish around Flamingo will move from flat to flat based on the different tide cycles. Some flats I like a falling tide, while others I like a rising tide. You can position yourself by knowing which direction the water either falls…
Spring time is here in South Florida, although its felt like this for a few weeks now. The flats outfront have been absolutely on fire lately. Alot of great shots on some tailing redfish and laid up snook. We have had a few days where the winds were light and fish were everywhere. I can’t…
