Re: Bait question

Crazy for sure and like I told my daughter and she posted to her friends..."I have accepted I am crazy and so are other people, it just depends on how much crazy you show the world." Sometimes I show too much but have learned not to honk at people in Miami traffic:) As far as leader I go 2...

Re: Does anyone fish

Lots of bait in the usual spots with cudas making a comeback but not much else to report. Winds finally laid down and storms moved through but bay has been pretty lifeless. Personally, I haven't been on the water in a while and it if it any indication of my sports ADD I now own two surfboards and st...

Re: Don't stop now!

Wrong tides this week but here is the fish I got last week. Rainy day here in Miami gave me time to download and figure out how to post it.

HE Giveth...8/2/10 report

Hit it at dark thirty. Not as many bonefish as yesterday and two words describe the shot I had
"Lined em" ARGH
Guess it can't always be Nirvana.
Other friend had one take his shrimp and peeled line then no more fish. Argh again but at least they
are coming back.

one and done

Inspired by reports of bones and all this permit talk I had to hit the flats today with my flyrod. As I broke my 9wt twice I had to go with the 6wt. Thanks AP for the donated flies. Got a nice 25 incher and was back in my drive way by 9am. Pics to follow when I can finagle my kids to download em for...

Re: Can't take the abuse!

Good point about the canal openings, fresh water way out on the flats.

May have to drive way south for any chances at bones these days.

Re: Can we get some life back up in here!

Yep if Cordell is the bonefish whispererer you are now anointed the tarpon tamer. Swear those things are your pets. Only a big jack attack that took one of the baits you gave me yesterday. Yep, I should have got some more of those big ones at Gordon's but all should know recycling frozen bait is no ...

Re: Can we get some life back up in here!

Tex, Good seeing you yesterday evening and yes you got all the tarpon. Played around in the incoming till 930ish and bugs won. As you called for more and I am a glutton I got to Flamingo at 7am and out by 10am today. Got a HUGE blow up early but the way it cut me off was a large shark. Worked a smal...

Re: Can't take the abuse!

Nice catches and as always my instinct to stay home was dead wrong! The hour drive with an hour left of sunlight was a deterrent.

Vibrams, nice. Started rehabbing my feet going barefoot on the grass and those are the next best things. Didn't think of using em for kayaking.

Next time.
