Growing up, two of my favorite things in life were fishing and spending time on the beach. The fishing was in the trout stream behind my parents’ home in Pennsylvania and the beach was Ocean City, Maryland. Today, I am fortunate to be able to combine both of my passions. Most mornings, from May through September, I can be found walking along the Manasota Beach surf line in search of hungry linesiders.Editorial StaffAug 14th, 2013
Summertime provides anglers with great opportunities to catch redfish. Generally redfish are a lot easier to catch on the extreme high and low tides around the new and full moons. The high tides push redfish into the mangroves, and the lower tides will pull them out onto the flats to feed. Learning how to adjust your angling techniques to match the tides will greatly increase your ability to find and catch more fish. Editorial StaffAug 8th, 2013

This summer, I was determined to get out off the New Hampshire coast to Jeffery’s Ledge in search of cod, haddock, and pollock. I hadn’t had time to go the previous two summers. So when I was offered the chance to head out with Capt. Lawrence Dennis (Capt. Larry) of Hardcore Anglers Fishing Charters, I jumped at the chance. Editorial StaffAug 2nd, 2013

One of the key advantages of spearfishing is its selectivity, as it allows fishers to target specific species without by-catch, making it an environmentally friendly option. However, it requires skill, precision, and knowledge of the underwater environment to be successful
Want a better shot at catching those summer trout in shallow water? Once summer is in full swing, I always find myself chasing trout that are ambushing prey from grass beds in shallow water. One problem I struggle with is finding the right bait for when that topwater bite turns off.
Typically coming in under 30 pounds, it is easy to transport, it’s quiet and super stealthy, and with a standing view it makes for a fantastic platform.
Recently, I was enjoying a quiet morning on the boat, all by myself, catching several fish in a remote place on the lower end of the Apalachicola River.

Tec diving is obstacle-ridden and humbling, but can reignite a fading passion. It can leave you with a sense of accomplishment and a refined set of diving skills. It grants access to depths beyond recreational limits, where lesser-known shipwrecks and deep reefs lie, waiting to be explored.Editorial StaffMay 16th, 2022
