When it's Right it's Right!!! (3/14/2008)
[Lower Luguna Madre,TX] When it's right it's right. Wind, sun, tide and temperature were all perfect for sight-fishing reds in skinny water two days ago. Today would be perfect too, but had to work.

Tailers But Not Cigars (3/17/2007)
[Lower Luguna Madre,TX] Fished North of Arroyo Colorado Laguna Madre Confluence alon the intercoastal. Cloudy, with light breezes gave us a fair amount of shots to tailing redfish. Unfortunately, no flies were seen due to errant casts.
