Red Drum Fishing

Twice as nice, recapturing adventures on the water with female anglers of Florida.
Lanark Reds and Wind
Marty Stephens of Evansville, Indiana, was my guest Friday and the morning started out with great promise. It was a little on the cool side as we left the Lanark Village boat ramp for a run to the east. The sound was slick and the breeze non-existent as Marty took his place on the bow [...]
Review: Shimano’s Terez Waxwing and TZCW70M rod
Shimano recently sent me one of the new Terez rods to field-test, along with some of the companion Waxwing swim jigs. The TZCW-70M casting model was designed for accurate casting for redfish and trout, but an article assignment gave me the chance to really put it through the test. Terez Waxwing rods are built with [...]
Windy Lanark Success
Wisconsinites Brad Berger and his father-in-law, Mike McCullough, took a day off from their vacation beach-fishing adventures to join me aboard Fin-esse on Tuesday. In typical fashion, the weather-guessers got the forecast wrong. We still managed to make some lemonade anyway. Or in this case, redfish tea. With the seas much choppier than expected we [...]

Fished inshore on Monday and caught redfish on topwater and went to the beach and caught some Blue Runners, Barracuda, [...]
South Carolina Reds
Despite a cold front, gnats and a tough tide, guide Tommy Scarborough in Georgetown, South Carolina managed to put us on some chunky redfish. These fish were in really skinny water, pushing back up little creeks and channels. But some shrimp tails and popping corks coaxed them out. Kim caught the lion's share… I chalked [...]
Myrtle Beach Fishing Reports
Sweet sound of multiple reels screaming as each rod doubles over when your bait spread is suddenly ambushed by a pack of monster Wahoo or how about a school of Yellowfin Tuna skyrocketing on an outrigger bait and burning 300yds of line off of a 50 wide better yet, the beautiful yellow, green, and blue [...]

St. Marks 3/9/12
Needed to scout conditions for some charters next week, so the trusty first mate (Gus the Rottweiler) and I left the Shields Marina dock just as the tide was bottoming out. Saw a cute 3-foot alligator cruising in the river on the way to the Gulf. Ran east and worked in on the incoming tide. [...]
