Biscayne Bay Aug09

I am sitting here waiting to pick up arriving fisherman from the Miami Airport this morning…we will fish 3 days very hard…he will land fully ready to go straight to the flats…I have a batch of fresh dreads ready and my stomach is in knots as usual in anticipation…weather has slight bad side and much will depend on if the water is salty or fresh…hoping for the best but not a fan of late starts but we’ll see how it works out I guess…hope to have some pictures by the end of this trip…had a 0 for 4 fisherman last friday and he was bummin hard…wish me(us) luck…

Good luck, Cordell! If anybody can do it, YOU CAN!! :D:tieone:

Yea, Good luck CB! BY the way, it’s Shark Week on Discovery, no better time to post some od your “sharks on a fly rod” pics!

Bass Bug…are you the Bass Bug that I know? as in the Bass Bug that ties up killer dragonflys and sliders?

Yep that’s me and those sliders were pretty sweet. My dragon flies to me are like your crab patterns to you. Those sharks you hook from your canoe??? Now THAT my friend is just crazy!!! (but oh so cool)

well everybody has failed in their quest…I seen many shots taken at bones and permit…finally I will go tomorrow myself but of course the winds of change have come and I might have to opt out for peacock bass…either way I will be out there the next 3 days and going for all the big names

Hey, Cordell, it’s Coughlin, another refugee. Good luck!

hello coughlin…all the big names are gathering!!! my morning sucked bad…big plans ruined by strong winds and rip current…also the canals are all open and dumping…probably in response to tropical depression brewing up so I will be watching the weather channel…will probably end up on the Everglades this weekend to find shelter

well the depression was indeed brewing up so all flats fishing was put off…now I see 3 named storms today…sucky…tarpon bite has been fair to good in the morning in the freshwater but having hard time keeping them on the hook

went o for 2 on dreads and lost all flys…grabbed the trusty 10wt and gave them the crab bomb…2 for 2 on cordelito crab…yay
