Some recent reports from the Everglades.

Went kayaking down in Everglades National Park in December and then headed down for a solo trip last week. The weather didn't cooperate in December but it couldn't have been more perfect the second time around. I had the place to myself last time out. Love the solitude the Everglades provides if you...

Re: Do you Stand in your Kayak while fishing ?

I can stand, but I don't. I stand on the bottom, not on my kayak. Not much need in my opinion. Generally, when you see a fish standing in a kayak, they have already seen you. When I had a Redfish, I would stand to take a leak. With the Hobie, I just scoot forward a take advantage of the hole for the...

Re: Caught a SKUNK!

Have fished Emerson Point on Sunday and then Cockroach Bay today. Is it just me or does it appear the fish are playing hard to get? Talking to the rest of the folks on the water......not a ton of folks catching fish. You are doing it wrong. I can't recall a better winter of fishing. The reds and tr...

Re: Everglades 1/14-17

Great pics. Just got back myself. Those coons on Mormon are fearless. By far the most aggressive on any of the outside islands I've stayed on. I've had them come right up while I was cooking supper. I didn't have much luck with the snook in the backcountry either with the weak front that came throug...

Spencer, posting pics of her around here is like taping a cigarette bikini on her and parading her through the prison yard.

Re: MirrOmullet on steroids

I've been using one for a while now. To me, it is much like a Spook Jr. Great for slick water but the action suffers even in a little bit of chop. It also has a tendency to beach ball when something really takes a shot at it (i.e., snook). It is a great trout lure and reds seem to slurp it down bett...

TFO spinning rods?

Anyone use them? Specifically the tactical series? I picked one up in the store the other day and it felt good. Looks like a steal at $150 bucks.

Re: Tag - you're it...

Getting tagged is a pain I hope to never feel again. Hot water does the trick. A lot of rum straight from the bottle helps too. Did your doc put you on any antibiotics as precaution? Saltwater has a lot of nasty bacteria and so do the creatures that live in it. The last thing you want is that wound ...

Re: Bay Area Reel Service

I've been meaning to send Phil a reel that Betts reel service screwed up royally and didn't make good on. That is the last time I use their reel service and I highly recommend that no one else ever use it unless they want a smooth reel to turn to a gritty grindy mess. I've heard nothing but great th...
