• Pine Island Trout On Fly
  on Jan 23, 2015
  My buddy Tom Cleaver from Matlacha got to work on his double-haul yesterday and landed this great looking speck with a #2 Clouser Minnow.  We were fishing near the northeast tip of Pine Island and landed at least two dozen other trout...
• Sundowner Over The Keys
  on Jan 20, 2015
  I didn't take this photo but REALLY wish I had.  It's a US Navy F-5N of the VF-111 Sundowners squadron based at Boca Chica Key.  These old Vietnam era fighters are still used to simulate MiGs in air combat training against front line squadr...

• Big Trout Return, For Now
  on Jan 7, 2015
  We had some great pre-cold front action yesterday afternoon just south of the Matlacha bridge.  I didn't hit the water until 12:30 to catch the rising tides and it paid off on nearly a dozen slot sized trout for my anglers.  All of the...

• Last And First
  on Jan 1, 2015
  Twin brothers Quentin and Peter came out with their parents and landed the last fish of 2014 on my boat during a cloudy New Year's Eve charter. And I hit the water for a few hours on New Year's Day but only managed to bring in thi...
