Yesterday I was invited to fish with Captain Sandy Horn by Ted Margo. We took a late start due to a plan to fish into the evening. By 11:00 we were on the water in the first spot, a backcountry area that typically holds a few giants. I had two shots at laid up fish,…

Earlier this week, I fished with Chris McCreedy and Fitz Coker. Since Fitz is leaving for Montana shortly, the window for us to hang out in is rapidly shrinking. Even though the weather had been windy and cloudy and rainy (driving more than a few people batty over the last few weeks) we decided to…

On Tuesday I had the pleasure of fishing with Jason Schratwieser, the conservation director of the IGFA. Jason and I have known one another for a while, but we had not yet fished together until now. I booked Aaron Snell for a day of fishing, and while the weather left much to be desired we…

Finally, here’s an account of last week’s four-day trip with John O’Hearn. For the first three days, we were joined by Frankie Marion, who was shooting some video footage of our escapades (in preparation of next year’s planned video venture). He was kind enough to send us some stills of the fishing for this report.…

I have yet to upload the large report from my four days with John O’Hearn last week, since I only just got photos from Frankie Marion who was on hand to document the proceedings. In the interim, while it’s pouring rain and blowing 25, here’s an account of my good friend Ted “Teddy Eyes” Margo…

The Angling Company would like to extend our respect and congratulations to Captain Joe Rodriguez and his angler Julian Robertson for their victory in the 2013 Goldenfly Tarpon Tournament. If you read these reports, you know that Joe is a friend of ours, and we couldn’t be happier for him. Hats are also off to…

Last week I spent four days with John O’Hearn. A full report is forthcoming, since I’m not scheduled to fish at all next week and will have photos to back up the stories. In the meantime, here are some pictures from Aaron Snell, who’s been slamming them pretty hard: Enjoy, the wind seems to be…

At the moment I lack a personal report to post here, given the lack of fishing I’ve been doing for the last week. That said, it’s worth mentioning here that the wind has been the primary issue out there and that, while many fish have been about, they aren’t super excited about biting. Monday I…

Sunday I fished with RT Trosset. Our target was tarpon–specifically, there was hope that we might pick a fight with a large fish on 6# tippet. As it was, we were unable to come tight but once (briefly) to a fish we couldn’t see. There were fish around us, and one even turned and tracked…

Yesterday I fished with Aaron Snell and Adam Tondu, a friend from Chicago in town to catch his first tarpon. We started early, and in short order Aaron had us on a school of rolling fish. Adam was up first and it didn’t take long for Aaron to have him in position for a number…
