Florida’s Big Bend Redfish
The story of the Big Bend redfish starts on the quiet coastline south of Tallahassee between St. Marks and Keaton Beach, Fla. This area of Florida’s coast is mostly located inside the Big Bend Aquatic Preserve, and the northern end is inside the boundaries of the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge. This amounts to a large bit of protected coastline that is loaded with opportunity. There is no other place in the state better suited for catching redfish than the Big Bend. Sep 11th, 2014
An Everglades Kayak Adventure
Every man has his “unicorn.” The one seemingly unattainable dream, accomplishment or endeavor that has, does, and will continue to elude his grasp. When most people think about unicorns, they think of beautiful white horses running across vibrant green fields. For me, they always have some variation of silver, green or brown colors and need gills to breath underwater. You see my unicorn has many faces, but it is always a fish. This brings me to my most recent fishing adventure.Sep 9th, 2014

Hunting-The Rites of Fall
I enjoy the change of season. The air and smells take on the slightest reflection of the winter to come. For lots of us it begins a ritual. In my house and countless homes across the Southeast, folks are getting prepared for hunting season. It doesn’t make any difference if you are a bow hunter or a gun hunter, it’s all the same preparation. I spend countless hours preparing gear, clothes, tools and the areas I will hunt in anticipation of time in the woods. First and foremost is the clothing I will wear. Here’s what I do to get ready for opening day.Sep 8th, 2014The Heart of the Mullet Run

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

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.28th Annual Keys Kids Fishing Derby
