Early Flounder

Too Early for Flounder?

A lot of anglers think fishing for flounder is a fall-only event. A little less known is the fact that flounder begin moving back into bays and estuaries in the spring as early as February. That’s right, if you didn’t get your full-flung flatfish fix, you may already be wasting time.Feb 26th, 2015

Fish Story: The Only One That Didn’t Get Away!

Fishing alone can raise some interesting dilemmas. Without an extra hand, landing a fish is just one of the difficulties solo anglers may face. Landing a triple hookup… that’s a whole different ballgame.Feb 24th, 2015

Catching Big Winter Wahoo In The Bahamas

I have treasured my visits to The Bahamas since the early 90s, and my last visit was nothing less than spectacular. This last adventure was over the Christmas and New Years holiday to catch a wahoo or two for the freezer. The winter months seem to attract the larger wahoos to the area.Feb 16th, 2015

The Heart of the Mullet Run

Fish will go on and do what they’ve always done, and what that means is that the mullet are running on Florida’s east coast.

Even if the fish don’t bite in the darkness, you still need to be there very early to catch as much of that early bite as possible.

Cruising the Abacos – An Adventure in Paradise

The Islands of the Bahamas are a paradise! The time to go is when an event is happening and with a shallow-draft boat to enjoy all the gorgeous islands.

Fish Food and Flies

Fly anglers are as attracted to their flies as fish are, and in some cases, can be even more attracted to them than the fish. There are a wide variety of flies available for anglers, and selecting from the array can be complicated. There are different colors, sizes, and materials. There are weighted flies and unweighted flies. So, what are the best flies? The simple answer is: it depends.

Spring Striped Bass Run the Hudson River

New York’s Hudson River could hardly be considered pristine on its lower end. That doesn’t seem to bother the striped bass.

Bucket List: Bow River Bullets

Without a doubt, Alberta, Canada’s Bow River is a world-class trout fishery. Glacier-fed and flowing more than 350 miles from the Canadian Rockies through the foothills and prairies of Alberta, it is big and scenic by the time it reaches the 50-mile section southeast of Calgary that author Jim McLennan called “the Blue Ribbon Bow.” It is here in this blue ribbon stretch that anglers flock to get in on some of the best brown and rainbow trout fishing in the world.
