Monster Bull Red

had a good day…started with a bonefish…then a snook…then a redfish…long hard battle on 8lb tippet and my new best




That’s a biggun - for sure.

Nicely done.

WOW!!!..That had to be some kind of fun!..I’ll bet you’ll sleep well.
Thanks for sharing some great pics.

Outstanding! That is some day. Those Redfish are PIGS!

Nice Bone, Nice Snook, OUTSTANDING RED! Very nice. Can’t get much better than that.

OK, somebody has to ask so it might as well be me. What’s with the bank robber look?? Hiding your true identity from the fish??

Cordell, that’s a HUGE REDFISH!!! WOW!! :D:D

Very nice Redfish! I don’t think I’ve seen one without spots before. Is that very common that they don’t have any?

The bone and snook aren’t to shabby either.

Hi BFW,

Judging from your pictures, you are certainly one of the finest saltwater, fly-rod anglers at FAOL. I don’t believe I’ve ever seen such a consistent string of fine fish from anyone else. It seems like you have the number of just about every major fish species that’s important to sports fishermen.

I do have one small, tongue-in-cheek question for you. I understand the the bandana over your face given the intensity of the Florida sun and the problems that guides have with skin cancer. What I don’t understand is the way you constantly hide your face behind the fish you have caught. Are you afraid that (1) you will become an angling celebrity like Lefty Kreh, Bill Dance, or Roland Martin or (2) we may recognize you from America’s Most Wanted. Just curious? 8T :slight_smile:

Isn’t it obvious? I thought the flowing golden locks would be a dead giveaway. You see, Cordell (aka “Fabio”) has a jealous girlfriend who won’t let him post pictures that reveal his beauteous (sp?) visage. And so he’s learned that if he wants to be able to post his fish pictures, he has to hide his mug.

That is a problem I don’t have.

but it’s obvious to me too.
With his skill and access to a great fishery, he highlights the fish.
Personally I think it’s kinda refreshing.
The bandanna BS has been covered B4. :stuck_out_tongue: :stuck_out_tongue: :stuck_out_tongue:

I’m totally jealous, those are awesome fish. I’d give just about anything to catch one of them, maybe someday. Probably would help if I moved to Florida. How far are those spots from your house?

I’m having a hard time catching smallies right now.

Very nice fish.

No question…I’m jealous too…and so is everyone else! :lol:
