Seeing a five foot bull shark less than fifty feet away is definitely something that will raise the hair on the back of your neck, and put a little fear in you. Some quit wade fishing altogether. Editorial StaffAug 2nd, 2013
I’m Ron and I’m all about fishing. I try to fish with a different charter boat every week or two. My bottom line is this: “I will never recommend a boat I haven’t fished on.” If a captain and crew doesn’t perform to my satisfaction you are not going to see their name printed in my articles, period.

First a quick summary of what went into creating the extended season. 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.

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
