You Know Sergio!? — June 11, 2007 The past week was a shortish, longish week.  Greatish, poorish fishing.  Consistently inconsistent yet inconsistently consistent.  In a nutshell, the week was a mixed bag of fishing conditions and weather conditions.  Trout...

Re: baffin bay…. andur right on….Danny!that one day i was using a she-pup chrome and black…..my buddy was using a bone colored super-spook jr!  we were bout 10 yards off the bank cause the water dropped to about six feet in a couple of steps!

Tarpon in the Bay. While fishing with Charlie Buchen (Tail Chasers) on 6/14, We landed a nice little Tarpon about 30lbs. It was really a shock to hook into one while wade fishing the bay and even more of a shock to land him on 10lb. line and a 1/4oz jig. . No pictures...

Re: Tarpon in the Bay. That is awesome!Kudos to you..Would be a dream come true for me to get one in the bay.I haven't jumped a tarpon since 2002 and that was about a mile off the jetties. Took a Mirrorlure under a small log and made my Penn spinner smell like a...

Wading at Night I am coming down on the weekend before July 4th and since the moon will almost be full I was hoping to get some ideas of where to go night wading in Port Mansfield.  I have done it in other bay systems like baffin but have only night fished in the East...

Flatstalker boats Hello all – Has anyone used one of the Flatstalker boats? www.flatstalker.com Seems like a pretty good deal. Any thoughts? David

Re: Tarpon in the Bay. Well Jeff has a better pic. that I have.. Maybe it will happen again some day.. Thanks for the reply.D.T.

Re: New To Wade Fishing Believe Brandon when he says youll be shallow.  I dont think we ever got into water higher than my knees.  Have fun chsing the reds! 

Re: New To Wade Fishing Ashley, Hey great name…same as my wife's!  😀 Unless on shell, or oysters, I may be the wrong person to ask becuase I frequently wade barefooted.  There are numerous stingrays in the bay; however, the water is so clear where we fish,...

Thanks Capt Bruce Capt, Bruce and I borrowed Capt. Brandon's boat for a couple of days scouting and a little fishing 4/27-28. Learned somenew areas and caught my best trout to date, 29 1/4″, 8 1/4 lbs. Also fished in Feb and did very well. Great spring....

73 Is Just the Beginning — May 21, 2007 What a fun week and an eye opening one, as well.  In my investment days, I was always amazed by the mental acuity and acumen of a few of our, well let’s say, seniors.  I would sit down with a few of my clients in the 70...

Pop Gets Wake Up Call! I thought I would thwart the rumor mill before it gets started and answer the ton of emails I have already recieved. First and foremost, Pop's is officially okayed by the Cardiologist.  He recieved a little angioplasty yesterday and got two...

Re: Pop Gets Wake Up Call! Brandon, Please tell your dad that we are very relieved to hear that his heart procedure was a success and that he will be back in his element next week.  My dad says to tell him to lose some weight–we all could stand to, I know I...

The Fishery Bruce and Brandon, Bruce, you talked about the fact that TP&W keeps an eye on operations that consistently post pictures of limits, or near-limits, of fish on their websites, and that, going forward, regs for the various bay systems will be affected...

Re: Pop Gets Wake Up Call! brandon, it has been about a week or so since we heard about the old gesser's procedure.  He is probably fit to be tied if he has not been able to get out there.  How is he doing with the recovery, everything still looking good to go!?

Re: Pop Gets Wake Up Call! He is doing fine.  However, doing way more than he should be at this point.  We are trying to get him to 'take it easy', but you know him.  Met donkeys less stubborn!  He has the rest of the week off and hopefully he will take it...

Re: The Fishery Wes I have read your post a numner of ties and still swilling it around to give you a good answer.  First, let me say, I completely agree with all of you points. As a guide, and this diatribe is mine only and does not reflect any official stance from...

Do I hear Bowie? — June 4, 2007 Come on…SING ALONG…P-P-P-Pressure!  For those of you too young to remember the original beat bastardized by Vanilla Ice, David Bowie’s arguably most recognizable song found its way into my head sometime early Saturday morning as I...

Thanks Captain B Brandon, I want to thank you for showing my dad and me a great time.  My dad really wanted his first redfish on fly and you did it .  Thanks for your patience and taking the time to show him how to spot fish.  Look forward to coming back down in...

New To Wade Fishing Hey guys I am coming down with my company in the end of June.  I understand we will be wading.  I have fished my whole life for bass with my dad and now husband and the wadefishing thing is totally new to me.  Being the only woman on the trip, I...
