Hit Convoy for an hour on the way to work today, went looking for bonefish so I had the peekaboo and my wife's stand-up paddle, two rods with 20lb leader, thats it. I paddle/poled across to the spoil islands and blind casted while scanning for those elusive grey ghosts. Near the canal I was working ...

they are back! http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c281/ilikebuscuits/spring%2009/IMGP1808.jpg Matheson Hammock and DOA shrimp = baby tarpon They were skittish today but we managed to jump 3 today with only one coming in for a photo, great day to be on the water too, no wind for most of the morning, w...

Pavilion has the best fishing I feel, theres also Jewel Key now open as well...its all good in the 10K!

Hit North Biscayne Bay early this mornng, started off pretty nice with an overslot snook! I was casting at what I thought were baby tarpon rolling when the glow gulp shrimp I was using got rocked. I thought she was a huge jack since she stayed down and peeled line like crazy. Almost flipped my kayak...

We hit the water from Shell Island road around 7:30am on Wednesday, the weather looked iffy and the conditions were not promising as we paddled out into the 15 knot headwind...building later to 20 with gusts to 25 as the afternoon wore on. That didn't stop the snook from chewin' though. will it fit?...

I do like the little auto lens cover on the Olympus though.

thats the other thing I should have mentioned: lens cover, would be really nice but I've yet to scratch either one of my optio's...but it would be lovely to have the piece of mind.

thats impossible to fathom...I guess cause I don't catch bonefish, where you at Cordell?

the grand slam will paddle more efficiently, they are both pretty heavy, the grand slam has a more open deck, the tarpon has more hatches, bananas and apples, demo them if you can than decide.

optio W60, fastrer than the Olympus cameras and I can vouch for their tough nature...it usually stays in my wet PFD front pocket for most of the week till it goes in the kayak. I have the W20 as well and after 3 years of service it still works great. The only bad thing I will say about the Optio lin...

anybody seen or heard from Cordell? Is he on bonefish safari in the Exumas or something of that nature?

Todd, if I ever manage to convert the loose jumble of thoughts in my into something even remotely readable I will save you a copy...I need bigger and better fish pictures first

So the weather changed our orginial plans of beach camping on Keewadin to camping on Round Island...but then the rains made us run all the way up to Sebastian Inlet. We ended up staying at Long Point State Park, just North of the Inlet, which was car-camping instead of paddling out to a secluded isl...

nice trucha!

First off, you put out some great posts. Keep the pics coming. Second, what kind of CD kayak do you paddle? I like the idea of a transitional touring boat rigged like yours. Thats a Whistler, its a heavy boat at 60lbs but its rock-solid stable and has alot of room in the cockpit, works great for fi...

completely awesome

Once again our plans for the west coast were dashed by winds and low temps so we hit the old reliable stand-by: The Lox It was a bit chilly in the morning as we launched from Riverbend Park and paddled down towards our little snook holes, but that didn't keep the snook from chewing that morning: htt...
