  • Thanksgiving Surf Fishing

    Thanksgiving Surf Fishing

    Thanksgiving morning Tania and I woke up about 6:30am and headed to the beach to go surf fishing. When we arrived at Blue Heron beach, the parking lot was pretty full, so I was hopeful this was a good sign. Since it was pretty foggy, we could not tell the water quality, but with all…

  • Fishing With my Best Friend

    Fishing With my Best Friend

    Tania and I weren’t sure we would go fishing on Saturday as the marine forecast was calling for 15-20kt winds. I checked Windy (an app) and it only showed it getting up to 11kts by 10:00AM, so I talked with Tania, and we decided to go. I only got three dozen shrimp as I figured…

    Solo Trip

    Today I did a solo trip. I invited a friend; however, he had to back out due to some personal issues. I checked the forecast and wasn’t sure I was going to go myself with the 15-20kt wind forecast. I decided to send it anyways and got to the dock about 6:30am. While I was…

    Small Pompano at Blue Heron Beach

    On Sunday after church, I asked Tania and June if they wanted to go to the beach. Both Tania and June enjoy sitting on the beach relaxing. I figured I could throw a couple of baits in the water to see what was biting while we were all enjoying each other’s company! They both said…

    Tania had her best friends, June, fly into town on Tuesday. Yepper, she flew in with Nicole heading right at us. We picked her up, brought her home and got her settled in. On Wednesday we took a drive to the Fort Pierce Jetty, to look at the angry ocean. The jetty was closed due…

    My sister, Andrea, is flying into Orlando to visit this weekend with her husband. On Wednesday she asked me if I could make her some fish dip. I told her I would; however, I had no fish to make the dip. When Tania got home from work, she asked if I wanted to go fishing…

  • Fishing with Gil!

    Fishing with Gil!

    This morning I woke up and checked the weather. The forecast still looked questionable but once again looked fishable. Tania still hasn’t fully recovered from strep throat, so she decided to stay home and told me to go fishing with Gil. I am so blessed to have her as my wife! I arrived at the…

  • Weekend Plan!

    Weekend Plan!

    Tania and I have been hoping to get offshore for a bit now; however, the weather and several other factors have prevented us from getting there. Early in the week it looked promising, but the marine forecast changed for the worse with 10-15kt NE winds and 3-5ft seas with the occasional 6ft sea.  With the…

With the help of our volunteers, we were set up by 8:30am, just as the families started to arrive. It was a little chilly when the event started; however, it…

  • Morning Fishing with a Friend

    Morning Fishing with a Friend

    On October 21, 2022, I took Pastor Will fishing. The weather forecast was questionable, but the boat I had was equipped with a trolling motor and spot lock, so I said send it. I arrived at the dock about 7am with Pastor Will arriving at 7:30am.  While I waited for the dock hand to get…
