Bow, Tip and Roll a Tarpon

Spring/Summer time is big tarpon time for saltwater fly rodders! No matter if you’re casting the fly to giant river tarpon in Belize or migrating tarpon in the Keys the best way to subdue these monsters is to “Bow, Tip and Roll.”

St Marks River Shallow Water Grouper Tactics

Shallow water grouper fishing out of St. Marks is great during June. My definition of shallow water is 15 to 30 feet in depth. Trolling this time of year is a great time to discover new fishing holes.

Indian River Lagoon Seagrass Loss

Following years of improving health and increases in seagrasses in the Indian River Lagoon, the 156-mile-long estuary is at a crossroads.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Why 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.

Why Try Technical Diving?

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.
