I’m scheduled to fish tomorrow with Joe Rodriguez in the park for the six. The weather looks good, there are a few targets around, and a report will follow. ncl

Yesterday Joe Rodriguez and I were scheduled to fish the glades on 6, though inclement weather forced us to reconsider. We opted instead to fish out of Key West, as the only thing we could do was to fish for permit. This wasn’t a bad thing considering the great permit fishing this time of year,…

Last night after work, I was meeting with Jeff Paddock from Seaguar and Eagle Claw. Near his hotel, we found some off color water, and in it a host of small tarpon, snook, and jacks. I quickly grabbed a rod, and from the seawall caught a small tarpon. After getting in the water, I caught…

Given the beautiful weather, an upcoming trip to the northeast (where, I’m told, there are no tarpon) and a lot of left over 6 pound class tippets from an overzealous tying session last week, Joe and I hatched a plan to spend a few days early next week in pursuit of the 6. It looks…

Monday was another day for the 6, and while the weather was marginal at best Joe and I decided to go. We left Islamorada at about 7:15, and in high water made it to the glades in just under 45 minutes. Immediately, it was apparent that the only way for us to see a fish…

Tomorrow I’m headed to the Everglades to fish with Joe Rodriguez and, if he can make it, Aaron Snell will join us. If you read these reports, you probably know how fired up I am to go toss some 3kg at large dragons in zero depth. Report to follow, as usual. ncl

Last night, despite pressing obligations at the shop, Aaron and I headed out to try our luck at tuna fishing. There was plenty of bait around, and while we left the dock at 5 PM, by 6:00 we were laden with pilchards and headed out to tuna territory. We arrived at the spot, and it…

Yesterday I fished with Captain Justin Rea. The last time I fished with Justin was during tarpon season, and as I recall we hooked a few tarpon and fought one on 6 for around an hour before it broke off. After being beaten by Justin in the Superfly this month (and last year’s Del Brown,…

After Ted Margo blew a large permit capture on Wednesday, he came correct and made it happen with John O’Hearn yesterday. Here’s the photo: Hats off to John and Ted, who made it count when it mattered. Monday I fish with Justin Rea, a report will follow. ncl

Monday I was invited by Ted Margo to fish with him and Captain John O’Hearn. Our plan was to catch bonefish, and John took us to a flat 20 minutes from the ramp and in short order Ted was fishing. It didn’t take long for a school of bonefish to show up, and even less…
