Fabulous to have Paul on my boat as he was an enjoyable skilled fly angler which allowed him to catch and release a nice tarpon, a redfish and a gorgeous snook all on the same day qualifying as a Backcountry Slam which is an envied accomplishment for every fly angler!

What a fun active day on the water with Richard and his 18-yr old son Connor celebrating his high school graduation. They got to target 10 tarpon and set the hook on 3 to bring them successfully to the boat for exciting photo ops and releases.  They also caught a snook and a redfish to complete the day with a BACKCOUNRY SLAM sight-fishing on the flats

It is so wonderful when I guide anglers that are serous about catching fish and understand they should put in the time to practice their techniques and/or invest in quality equipment and Scott did both, getting out as soon as the snow melted in Pennsylvania so he could throw the fly on his new rod and reel to be ready for the challenge when he went for the real thing on the saltwater.  And it all paid off with a photo as proof.  Kudos to Scott!!

J Larry shared with me he wanted to catch a bonefish so it was truly great that each of them got one, as they are the sport-trophy silver ghost of saltwater fishing in the Florida Keys as they are NOT easy to catch.  These fly guys did a fine job with the spinning rod.
