I agree it's been a weird year so far. Marking as many fish as ever but some days they just absolutely will not bite! It's not just Florida either, we have a couple ponds on our Indiana property and...

Love me some Road Runners!

Thanks guys! Dad has had his boat out once and has been doing a lot of dock fishing. Got himself a 2.2# off the dock yesterday!

Had to make an unexpected trip to my Astor Fish Camp with my brother last week due to our Dad being in the Deland hospital with pneumonia. He’s out and better now after a 10 night stay. He insisted...

Very nice! We fished Dexter last week and didn't do much. That wind was crazy! You'd go from glass to white caps.

Nice! I've got one 35 minutes away from home in Terre Haute and one 35 minutes away from my Florida place in Daytona. Used to shop there a lot when my work was handing out gift cards lol. Definitely...

As for licensing; I'm from Indiana but own a place in Florida. I've bought and sold boats and trailers in Florida and found the process pretty simple. When you buy a boat just take the title to a BMV...

Thank you all for the kind comments! There will definitely be more scallop trips in our future, and I'm wanting to head south for lobster too. Here's another video we did on the east coast after the...

Been wanting to try this for a while and finally did. We had family down so I booked a charter out of Crystal River that could take all 8 of us on the same boat. Loved it! Reminds me of morel...

NICE catch! That's a fatty.

That's the reason we've considered moving farther north. Would love having more salty critters in the river to play with. We do get them down in Astor occasionally, I lost a nice flounder last summer...

I'm also 55 and from a rural area in Indiana. My parents have wintered in Astor for 20+ years and I've fell in love with the area. It reminds me of the small towns where I'm from with 2 gas stations,...

Nice catches! Those wipers are a blast(unless you're trolling 12 lines and one decides he needs to get wrapped up in every single one of them!) rotfl

Thanks! No kayaking this trip. I mentioned it to my lady friend but she wasn't up for that under bridge combat fishing! :Rofl

Thanks! I’d love to stay for the winter if it wasn’t for this darn work thing.

Haven’t wetted a line in Hoosier waters yet in ‘23 but I just got back from my Florida place and caught my PB last week! Was fishing off my Dad’s dock while my parents were off in their boat. Caught...

It’s been several years, but I used to fish Bass quite a bit for the musky when I lived between Jasonville and Linton. It’s a cool pit. Lots of trees underwater and the DNR added some structures back...

Just checked the Butler ramp in Astor and it’s open. Only 4 boats out on this beautiful morning.

I received a notice on the 11th that the boat parade was canceled for this year due to the water levels and speed of the river. :(

Roadrunners are one of my favorites for catching the big specks!

Beautiful catches! Glad you stayed in the shade and didn't melt. :cheers2

Beautiful mixed bag!

Way to go on the flatties, guys! Thanks for taking us along. :ThumbsUp

Very nice! I like your rig too. :ThumbsUp

Captain Sean Rush of Trophy Bass Expeditions is a good one. He fishes Rodman in a big aluminum boat with a big bait tank that will hold like 30 dozen shiners and has 150hp tiller on it lol. My dad...

Thanks for the report! Sounds like a good time. :ThumbsUp

Nice one!! Those are some hard fighting fish.

Thanks! Yep, that was a channel cat. Dad always throws them back but I've been keeping a few from the river and they're pretty darn good. Mild flavor like the ones I catch from our ponds up north.
