I'll post an apology.

I'm truly sorry I had to drop. Our area was hit pretty hard by Hurricane Wilma. We had to leave our home for a few weeks. I dropped then but Dan was kind enough to extend the...

I'm glad it's not just me with the wooly bugger. I still try them but they don't work for me. Thank goodness for clousers!

Okay, I can't resist. These are some of my favorite types of swaps. I'm in.

My local BPS is the one in Dania, Florida. I like it quite a bit. They material selection is decent but not fantastic. The people there have been very knowledgeable and have included local guides and...

Hi Dan,

I might be interested in this. What's the due date? I've hosted a few of these the past couple of years and they can be a lot of fun.

Jed,

I've hooked them on fly before. But I also had one hit on a backcast and fall off. Unfortunately I was in my kayak and he fell off in my lap! That was decidedly unpleasant. I did find out I...

Parnelli,

Great job on the FOTW CD!! Thanks so much!

Thought it might be something like that Gil. Otherwise I'd have to wonder about yakkin' with your shoulder when there's a perfectly good HB sitting around! :-)

Wow, I wish I had posted here before I went out to that area last month. I still got some good advice and managed to do pretty well.

I stayed at cedar view in el portal. You could walk across the...

I picked up one a couple of weeks ago when they had a coupon. Total price was $5. couldn't say no. Wish I had bought two now. I'm still new to it but I really like it. I'm thinking of picking up...

Hey Gil,

Good to hear you're getting out with the rod & kayak! Now when did you get access to a Hell's Bay?!? Have you been holding out on me! ;-)

FYI, if this falls on days I can make it to I...

Tough one but I'll throw in a second vote for polypro; it's my latest craze right now.

The only time I've hit the salt in the past month or so was when I went on a guided kayak trip in Tampa Bay. Caught my first redfish! Of course the rod was shorter than normal and the reel's handle...

Come down and try it in South Florida. There are actually quite a few bank flyfisherpeople down here but you'd never know it sometimes. I've had my license checked a decent number of times. Always...

#2 Chart/White Clouser Minnow for me

Hi jscot,

I live in that area and yes it's worth bringing your fly rod. Summer's a good time to hit the beach. Not that lauderdale is an inshore hotspot (offshore is generally better) but there's...

Candygram! Love it!

Has everybody seen the sharks eating tarpon video out there on the web? Makes me think about not fishing for tarpon on my kayak. Operative word...think...

Harold, funny you mention the gators. A friend of mine was telling me about a big croc he saw in Flamingo with a nurse shark in it's mouth.

They also get tigers there pretty frequently but that...

I only have a few years fishing experience and fortunately haven't had any bad encounters. I've had a couple that were a little close though.

I love to wade down in the keys and you often have...

Yeah, it really hit home for me. A good friend of mine is getting up there. He's physically so-so and he's becoming more than a little forgetful. It can get frustrating sometimes and depressing more...

I don't post much but I just wanted to add my appreciation of that article. Really made me think. I enjoyed it very much. Flats Dude, I live a ways south of you in Broward but I hope that one day I...
