Fun in the Holey Land!

Marty Arostegui and I fished the Holey Land today to try and break his 401 world record. Marty has more than double the world records than any other man. We had our chance at a big gar but he just wouldn't take Marty's fly. About midway through our trip we kind of aborted our mission of record breaking because we realized the big gar and mud fish weren't very active, and decided to help out with stocking the IGFA pond. We relocated 10 small bass one fairly large mud fish and four medium sized gar. Hopefully these fish will put a smile on a few kids faces during the fishing rodeos they have there.

Bassin In the Glades with Jack Sovoie and Don Boyle

What a trip! I have to admit it took some time to find the fish for my friends Jack and Don. With all the high water we were stumped for the first part of our day. After a location change it was game on! The magic started about an hour and a half before dark. We had blow up after blow up! They weren't giants, but it sure was fun! I hope to see Jack and Don again. They were great guys to hang out with. Above is a photo of Jack with one of his bigger Bass.

Some lucky guy is on the cover of Fly Life Magazine this month! http://www.flylifemagazine.com/ Check out the article on fishing in the Everglades.

   Even though the fishing has slowed dramatically over the last couple of months, because of the high water, when you find the right land locked canals there are still plenty of fish waiting to be caught. 

  I'm headed up to Lake Okeechobee today to help Roland s' out with a guide trip. I'll give everyone the details later.

Keep catching them,
