3/26/10 Windy Redfishing
Well the perfect conditions can't last forever. Today was a challenging trip with
the wind whipping hard around 20-25 mph and the water was pretty stirred up.
We still managed to get a few nice fish though. This shot above is of a few of the
bigger reds my clients Mickey and Jerry caught this morning. Not Bad

3/25/10 Fish To The Left And Fish To The Right!
Another epic morning seeing hundreds of fish on the low tide flats. When I say fish to the left
and fish to the right I mean my client Ralph Rossi was catching redfish casting a fly rod with 
his left as well as his right and I couldn't tell the difference.  Unreal !!

3/23/10 Windy But Good!
It was a bit chilly out there this morning with the 20mph West winds but that didn't

3/21/10 Catching Stud Redfish!
WOW! is what I said when my client Lewis Reeves hooked into this pig of a redfish!  
Today was one of those quality not quantity kind of mornings which is just fine 
when you are catching fish over 10 pounds! This one pictured had a set of shoulders
on him like a linebacker and was pushing 12 and half pounds!

What a unreal day of fishing by far one of the prettiest days of the year! Finally Spring has Sprung!
These are just a few of the great shots I took today. The first 2 were about 6:45 am when I 
was running 35 MPH in the sheet glass with a incredible sunrise. The next 2 pics were of 
David and his Son N Law Angus with some real nice redfish. The last 2 shots are from my 
afternoon trip with Clem and Nina with stud fish caught in the marsh grass flats.

3/18/10 What A Double Header!
10 Year olds Chris Dugas and Coleman Petway had the ultimate double header to start 
off the trip this afternoon. Both of these fish were well over the slot limit and put up one
heck of a battle! We finished off catching a few more perfect eating size reds to top off
a great day!

3/13/10 Blowing 25-30 MPH!
This afternoon was one of those trips where you leave the dock and the 
weather was just perfect with sunny clear skys and light winds but as soon as
we got out of sight of the dock the clouds started to roll in and the wind went 
from blowing 10 mph to 25-30 MPH! We made it to a good protected spot
 and caught some nice reds on spin and a few on the fly.

3/12/10 Afternoon Fly Trip
The water temps are finally starting to warm up and hopefully some baitfish 
will start to move in and really turn the fish on. This was one of those days the fish 
were a little picky but my clients did convince a few to eat the fly.  This a great shot of 
Dr. Bill Miller one of the nice reds we caught this afternoon.

3/4/10 First Fish Caught On The New Boat!
Not exactly ideal conditions with 20 mph winds and chilly windchill temps. The Arnolds
and I managed to find a few nice reds today. This one pictured was the first fish caught aboard 
my new Egret flatas boat. I can't tell you how happy I am with the Egret. It is by far the best riding 
boat of it's size I have been on. My clients didn't get one drop of spray on us while crossing 
the choppy Calibougie Sound.

2/27/10 Just Got A New Boat!
Just picked up my new custom built 2010 18'9" Egret Flats boat !
Book a future trip with me and experience the most technically advanced flats machine ever built.
The Egret 18'9" is known in the fishing world as the Rolls Royce of flats boats. With an unparalleled 
smooth ride the Egret will be the most comfortable flats boat you've ever been in. Not only does the
Egret ride through the water like a much bigger boat but it will also float in mere inches of water. 
Rigged with a 140 hp Suzuki 4 stroke engine I will be getting my clients to my favorite fishing spots 
in no time at all!  I can't wait to get it, I feel like a kid on Christmas morning!

My clients Phil and Hobb lucked out with another great trip with excellent conditions. They caught
several nice fish using the fly rod and the rest were caught on bait with light spinning tackle.

afternoons trip they look like twins there spots on the tail are almost identical!

The afternoon action was great on light tackle spin and also the fly. This a great
shot of Hobb and Phil with one of the nice redfish they caught on the fly.

2/20/10 Morning Glass
What a beautiful morning. The river was like a sheet of glass which made 
spotting the schools of redfish super easy.  This a great shot of my client
Jamie Hubbard with one of the bigger reds we caught this morning.
