Gotta love his GOALS!!
It does resemble my mindset yesterday though, in trying to beat the early, high-wind forecast and the high percentage rain-event forecast. Launch @SUNRISE was planned/accomplished and didn't take my l/lng.

his Limitations! Thankfully, I was able to get my limit plus more while l/l'g along with two hefty Shad and a couple WIPERS! Man, both of those species put up a battle on Crappie gear(especially just after catching a Crappie!) Absolutely

Search and seizure was eventually rewarded after hours of wandering around. The St. John's(Astor) ramp access is wide open with water speed noticable for sure.
L/l'g & S/r'g @the same time by myself was easy-peasy...until

Although my day was LONG, the bites were few...seven reluctantly enjoyed the Ice-bath, chauffer-driven, ride back home. Same, preferred MO, the expected slow-bite was unfortunately "conditions" predictable. Only six specks and

Staying strictly to patient orders, I easily set out to further gain some progress with some on the water therapy in hopes of stretchin' some string! Same favorite technique/arsenal/venue/target with a noticeable improvement in left arm

A couple of days ago, Tuesday, I had the pleasurable opportunity, to do another Show and tell with another Far North native(Wisconsin) friend. AJ "pre-punctually" arrived @my driveway at 05:50(said he couldn't sleep) with some

long overdue so off I went. Very chilly this morning, but our Salt trip from last week was more on the bitter-cold side for Florida. Decided that 8 longline trolling rods would be enough for me to manage alone with a rather brisk NE 10 - 15

you accumulate way too many Candles on your cake, especially when your expectations are met or Exceeded!! Yesterday's SALTY-trip proved, thankfully, to be case-in-point! Low-activity fish forecast, w/t 81* > 85*, High-tide
...
quite the Birthday activity, I couldn't wait to see unfold , on the Salty-side of town. No other party-attendees/invitees were necessary, but myself and the Owner of the arena MOTHER NATURE!! Five rods & reels, 3 tackle boxes,

NOT really LOVIN" it! Trying to enjoy my obsession FISHING while 'under the influence'(Full moon), has typically forecasted a "stingier" bite. Regardless, here I was- early yesterday(WAY BEFORE the Rooster cleared HIS throat),
...
frowned upon, but when it comes to fun-harvesting on the water, I'm ALL IN! Saltwater Tuesday programming had both fishing & crabbing on my technique du jour/modus operandi. Working my way West from launch, I'd set a trap/fish

another day to remember with the "MostVisitedPiscatorialist" = Pontoon Pappy! This return trip was prompted by the need to return a rod re-repair I made for PP a few months back. Don had broken a very nice spinning Carrot Stick

a skilled-trade that establishes alcoholic beverages(eg- mixed drinks etc.) and a bartender's(mixologist) adeptness in creating a return "watering hole" customer. My favorite "watering hole" can be fresh or saltwater

Scanning my fish pic "library"(Library of Congress{C.com}) I came upon a notable trophy worth "bumping to the TOP"! Could the notable/blessed angler bring the unaware viewers(members/non) up to speed with details and hopefully

had diminished #'s and overall quality from last week's banner day, but still a great result. Had 3 that made well-shouldered qualifications...but none over 14". Had an unusual number of throwbacks but ice-bathed invitees did

for me- Unannounced, but with plenty of "presents"! Yesterday, I once again had the blessed opportunity to choose the when, where and what factors of my "in search of" fishing agenda. Yesterday's freshwater
