Coastal fishermen throughout the United States are familiar with the influence that tides have on a successful day of fishing.
Kayak Corner: Choose The Right Paddle and PFD
Choosing the right paddle and PFD can be a hard decision, especially for the new kayaker. When faced with the plethora of available options there are some details that should not be overlooked when purchasing these items.
Spring Transition
As much as we all want to get out of the house and hit the water, catching fish in the spring transition is much easier said than done.
The Casting Corner: Casting in Tight Places
I was asked to give some thoughts on casting in tight places. So I took it on as a project and went fishing in North Georgia. I put myself in places on the streams that offer no chance of a back cast, and very little space to move the rod.
Spring Flounder Trickle
We all know about the fall flounder run that occurs between the months of October and December. Flounder leave bay systems coast-wide predominantly following forage species like shrimp and menhaden as they exit bay systems during dropping temperatures and flushing tides of late fall and winter.
Sargassum, a most valuable weed
We see it most every time we go out on the water, and unless we’re trolling for wahoo or dolphinfish, we probably just take Sargassum weed for granted and don’t give it a second thought.

Young Anglers Reel in Sailfish Dreams at Second Annual Keys Kids Tournament
On February 8th, fifty-seven young anglers set sail on 21 boats in the waters of Islamorada for the Second Annual Keys Kids Sailfish Tournament. This free, one-day event featured youth in two divisions: small-fry (ages 0-10) and junior (ages 11-16).Upstate New York Bass on the Fly!
For an angler, being outside and fishing in a short sleeve shirt with no one around should be enough to call any day a success. This day was about to get better. As we cast into a river with increasing water temps and a majority of the steelhead already back in Lake Ontario, our expectations of a tight line were low. Soon enough, as we launched large flies into the water, the addicting tight line grabs began. These fierce strikes were not steelhead, but hungry smallmouth bass. We enjoyed a full day on the river swinging 4-plus-inch flies and catching more than 25 smallmouth bass apiece.Under The Sea – Slings and Polearms
