In Tampa for a few days... near DaleM & Kennedy.

Are there any good local B&T and/or Fly shops around this area ?

Not paddle fishing bank hoping, fresh water tarpon hunt, poon did not cooperate but the small Peacock bass were destroying my soft plastic baits... https://scontent-mia1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/14264147_10210545562705703_2154622477689782373_n.jpg?oh=40680ccb9eacacc5d4fc80b6e0396e24&oe=5845B709 h...

Strom has gone, time to go fish................

Tropical Storm now and perhaps reacing hurricane statue before reaching land, looks like somewhere N. of Tampa area... but looks like lots of rain coming that way and a storm surge.. double down on the spring lines and if in a low lying area near the coast move yer stuff to higher ground.

Its coming your way on the west side, all we had here in Ft. Lauderdale was several fast passing rain showers...

Well the weather predictors ahve been doing their best to panic the public into preparing for the super storm of the century. The gas mongers have raised the price of gas by 20 cents a gallon, and the big box stores are selling lots of water and batteries. But so far its still just a rain storm, not...

If it was not for the dog... Cordel Baum the "BoneFishWhisperer" has a small fully functional efficiency style cottage, with fly tying vise, he rents out to clients and/or others even if not hiring him to fish... but his dog tippet is not compatible with other animals and most people. Cord...

Guys I know some of you make the trip across to the East side once in a while... just thought I'd post this as a warning, take if for what you want but be aware. Went out today to a launch site I been to many many times... Black Point. Arrived at 06:30 am. Was not the best of days on the water, over...

I also see post and hear rumors that Peacock are getting to be fairly common in the fresh water canals around teh western side of the Alley in Naples and Golden Gate areas.

I have not been fishing for P's lately, but them what do have been doing well from what I can see or have heard. In my specific area, C11 canal along Griffin/Orange drive it seems to me the Peacock population has dwindled, but the Snook and Tarpon have thrived. Not sure what the reasons are, except ...

Well its a welcome site to see PF up and in a normal state again... lets get the traffic flowing.

Thanks to the admin for bringing cleaning up the mess, elimintaing the crawling scumbags that were spamming it.

I'll be walking a bank in the morning chasing Tarpon.... anyone else fishing or paddling ?

Can something be done, perhaps just lock it down prevent any new post for a few days and the scumbags will go elsewhere...

Delete the attacking user's accounts, and stop allowing new ones for a period of time...

Went out yesterday, weather was not the best, tides were backwards, but I wanted to take the paddle-board out and test a new fin, and see how it pole'd. Thought I'd make a post to liven up this place and SUP fishing. Took the Voyager out today, got up checked the radar, wind finder, and local weathe...

Take one of MudHoles classes.. I did and found it very interesting. They provide all the parts and materials to build a 6'6" spinning rod over a 1.5 day timeline. If you are interested its a good start to the hobby.

Rent a wreck... buy the insurance and go for it. Inexpensive options: Malone Handi Rack , soft inflatable, and portable ( I had a set I'd loan ya but gave them to someone) less than a hundred bucks. Soft SUP/Surfboard racks , soft, portable and they work I hauled more than 1 different kayak for 10 y...

Thanks for keeping on looking out... scammer's, hackers all sux...
