Fishing Reports
Yesterday, and two days prior, I was invited by Ted Margo to fish with John O’Hearn. Our target was primarily permit, though we looked for bonefish at the beginning of the first day. Here’s how it all went down. Day One (Tuesday, 23 September) We left in conditions that could be easily described as sub-optimal,…
Read MoreOn Tuesday I fished with Captain Simon Becker. We were joined by Kathryn Vallilee. We started on some nearby areas, hoping to find some permit to throw a fly at. Kat had a shot at a single, though for the first hour or so the permit fishing was slow. Following this, we relocated to an…
Read MoreWhile I uploaded the report already yesterday, here are the pictures I just received from Aaron Snell from our two day trip for the Superfly. Enjoy! The first day, our only real permit shot ended with a bang when I scared them off: And throughout the two days, our bonefish were easy to come by.…
Read MoreThe last two days I fished in the Superfly tounament, the last of the tournaments for this year until the newly-minted Sugarloaf Showdown in November that the LKGA has put together from the 14-15 of November to benefit the Guides Trust Foundation (GTF).

Read MoreThis morning I had an opportunity to get out on the water for a few hours with Captain Jared Cyr. Our plan was to “fun fish”, codespeak for push one another around. We started near to Key West, and Jared had a decent shot at a single permit that disappeared in the early glare. Following…
Read MoreOver the weeekend, I fished for two days with John O’Hearn. Our target was a permit record on 2 lb tippet. Currently, the record is held by Del Brown and Steve Huff. Day One: We started off by fishing for tarpon before the light was high enough to see permit. In two hours we had…
Read MoreNow that mini-season is finishing up, it’s time to get back to business. Saturday and Sunday I have two days off fishing planned with John O’Hearn, and our target will be permit on 2 lb tippet. While we certainly expect it to be difficult, the only way to do it is to try–and try we…
Read MoreThe last two days I fished with Simon Becker. The first day we were joined by Jason “College” Schratwieser and the second day we were joined by Kat Vallilee. Our fishing was good, and as always it was a pleasure to fish with Simon Becker. Here’s how it all went down: Day One: We started…
