Fishing Reports
Yesterday, I had a day off from both work and fishing. I went to the park to cast a fly rod for a few hours with Kathryn, and afterwards thought it would be worth a look for a small pon. We found them, though I couldn’t buy a bite. After a fly change and letting…
Read MoreYesterday and today were the first relatively cold days we’ve had here in a while, and even though the fishing was slightly shut down due to the chill it’s always nice to have some cold fronts during the winter to put everything back to its right place. As the warming trend continues the fish will…
Read MoreAfter the days with Steve, I fished with John O’Hearn as a guest of Ted Margo. We had a great time, and while it took us a few hours to locate the lips we eventually finished the day with a few shots. It’s worth mentioning that Ted Margo made a few of the best casts…

After a long drive from Key West to Islamorada, and another long drive from Islamorada to the Everglades, we arrived in great conditions and immediately started seeing a lot of redfish. The issue we had with the redfish was that they…
Read MoreIt figured it would be worthwhile to mention that the weather seems to have turned the corner. Today it’s sunny and warm, and as the warming trend continues I’ll be sure to update the fishing reports with something other than ramblings about the weather. Monday I am fishing with Joe Rodriguez and Fitz Coker in…
Read MoreOn Monday, I fished with John Benvenuto. Our plan was to fish for barracuda, in preparation for the Cuda Bowl. The cold front was scheduled to arrive later in the day, but we left the ramp at 9:00 in reasonable conditions. We started by fishing for permit, and while the water looked great we did…
Read MoreYesterday was cold and rainy, though today was bluebird and warm. Tomorrow, another front is scheduled to visit us and plunge our temperatures once again. I am scheduled to fish with John Benvenuto tomorrow morning, and our target will be barracuda in preparation for the upcoming Cuda Bowl. Hopefully, we can find a few before…
