Yesterday morning I fished for four hours with Aaron Snell. We had some great weather, and decided that it might be a good opportunity for the six. Aaron found fish straight away, and we were in them for the duration. Here is some of what we saw: The fish were laid up and happy, though…

Part two: After our first two fish yesterday on 6 lb, one of which was large enough and neither of which stayed buttoned, Aaron saw two fish sliding high in the water and pushed me over. My line had been oddly coiled up, and I had just attempted to clear it. When I began casting,…

Day one: The water had not yet warmed up after our latest cold snap, so we elected to chase some redfish and drum in the Everglades. Joe put us on fish all day, and Aaron and I had a great time trading shots at drum and catching many redfish. Here are some photos: Day Two:…

Tonight we leave for 3 days of fishing with Captain Joe Rodriguez. The water is warm (and warming), and my guess is that the first day will be spent looking for redfish and the next two for our tarpon. A report will follow. ncl/tac

It’s cold, that’s for sure. While this little front is scheduled to leave in the next few days, the sub-60 degree weather is shocking, especially after such a mild (and tarpon filled) winter. On Wednesday I leave for 3 days in the Everglades with Joe Rodriguez in pursuit of the 6, and the high is…

At lunch today I ran into my good friend (and great angler) Dave Dalu. He later stopped by the shop with his wife Olivia and two children, the oldest of which is pictured below with her first redfish: I leave next Wednesday for three days in the park with Captain Joe Rodriguez in pursuit of…

Last night Aaron and I went off for a tactical tarpon mission–he had seen some fish and we wanted to get after some bigger fish at night, something we hadn’t done in a while. We waited for the rain to clear and headed out. Aaron caught a small fish in short order while we waited…

After two days of heavy (30 mph!) wind, the fleet returned with the following results. The Angling Company would like to extend our warm congratulations to all the participants, especially those listen below: Cuda Bowl 2012 Results The Second Annual Cuda Bowl was held at Hurricane Hole Bar & Grill in Key West, FL. The…

Aaron and I had a tough two days of fishing, mostly due to the ridiculous amount of wind and cloud cover that typified the two days of tournament fishing. Day one was cast, strip, repeat until your done. All this effort netted (ha! get it?) us one 28 inch fish and two more bites from…

Tomorrow night is the captain’s meeting (and hang-out session) at The Angling Company, 6:30 PM. Anglers and guides are looking forward to two days of chasing large barrracuda on both fly and spin gear. Lately there has been a ton of wind on the flats, and it is slated to die off tomorrow but return…
