Any of you fish out of a kayak? This is my Old Town Sportsman 106 PDL. It's great. I haul it in the back of my Gladiator with a bed extender.

Here is a few snapper from Carabelle in the panhandle, 160 lb yellow fin tuna that I landed out of Venice, LA, and a Mahi from Islamarada in the keys. Planning a trip out of Stuart, FL later this year.

A nice brown from my secret stash in Northern California.

Drug my nephew out onto Lake Tarpon. He was getting impatient about the spot we were at. I told him let's give it 5 more minutes. Keep casting. About 3 min later he pulled his first bass out of the lake.

What type of trout is that?
Here's one from this past Friday. After work. 16 miles from my house. It's bitter sweet though, since the little river is one of the hardest places I've ever fished because it is usually a zoo with guides and "extreme" fly guys. But in the early season when no one wants to be out there fishing the high flows and cold weather with size 18 and 16 nymphs this is what you can get. Hooked 4 in 8 casts with two to the net. She's chunky:

A couple of weeks ago I came across some photos from a trip in the '80s. These are some of the people I worked with in the '80s. They would put together a few charter trips a year.

Tiger trout…hybrid between a brown & brook…this a splake; hybrid between a lake trout and a brook
While I love fishing the large western freestones and tailwaters, I equally love fishing tiny streams you can hop across…I pulled a half dozen nice bows from this tiny stream near Antimony UT last month

Yellow eye rockfish…you are only allowed two per year now, since they grow so slowly

100%. I have a 2wt 6' rod, a 2wt 7' rod, a 3wt 7.5' rod, and all the usual suspects up to a 9.5' 6wt. The 2 and 3 weights and the 6 weight get the most use. The 9.5' 6wt can roll cast a heavy double nymph rig with weights and an indicator without even blinking. But I still prefer the little creeks. Especially the ones that not to many people know about. Though, those are hard to find in Northern California.
