SPEAKIN ENGLIS
Why do most of us outdoorsmen choose the pastimes that we do, other than the sheer challenge and enjoyment of being outside? I know that after years in the golfing industry as an assistant pro and also as a struggling competitive player, I realized that my full focus was not on the game and the opportunities were slipping away. I also knew that one of my addictions with it was the challenge as well as the fact that I grew up in a golfing family and thought it was my job to carry the name on. Jun 4th, 2013
Bluewater on the Northern Gulf Coast
The greatest thing about this career is the time spent around passionate people fulfilling their need to relive childhood memories or connect to the thing that allows escape from their day-to-day activities. Recently, I had the opportunity to experience both of these when golf professionals Chris Champagne, PGA professional at The Preserve Golf Club in Vancleave, Miss., and Derrick Goff of the Santa Rosa Golf & Beach Club and I were guests of Capt. Colin F. Byrd of Liquid Oxygen Offshore Charters on his 34’ Sea Vee. Jun 4th, 2013
2013 Southern Classic Musky Weekend
Deep through the heart of Middle Tennessee flow numerous rivers that comprise some of the finest bastions of southern muskies. They prowl timber, weed beds, sand bars and ledges, looking to ambush every other species that swims in (and on) the same waters, causing anglers to fumble with their line and turn jittery as their massive silhouettes rise from nowhere behind a well-thrown fly.Jun 4th, 2013
Fishing the Northeast and Florida Not That Much Different
Fishing in Maine and New Hampshire versus fishing in Florida isn't really that much different. Aside from watching out for alligators, snakes and spiders we fishermen in the North aren't any different from our Southern counterparts.Jun 4th, 2013Why Kayak Fishing?
I told my wife I was planning to write an article about kayak fishing but I didn’t know specifically what I wanted to write about. I had spent days thinking about it. I couldn’t decide whether to write about fishing for a particular species, a particular style of fishing, or rigging a kayak. They were all good topics, but none of them really inspired me. One question provided me with enough answers for two articles: “What do you like most about kayak fishing?” she asked. “Catching fish,” was my smart aleck reply. It really all boils down to access, the water, and the fish.Jun 4th, 2013

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
