Panama Red 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2014 Murray, I think they finally moved Dave to a minimum security facility that allows internet access. It's true…I just got back from pompano beach today, work release program of sorts. I have to tell you that the farther south I go the more I fall in love with Florida. Warm weather and water, canals, ponds, beaches… You can't swing a cat without hitting water down there. Thanks for the kind words on the fly. I'm going to try some other color combo's just because. Problem is, I have so many flies from lack of fishing last year that I'm running into the how many flies can I toss in a year quandary. Will find out come April Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
agn54 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2014 I bet a chartreuse head over a white tail would be killer, also read head over white. I agree about South Florida. I grew up down there and even if you can't get to the sea, there are canals and lakes all over. The canals usually have places for public access and all have peacock and large mouth bass. We used to fish a lot on the ponds and canals around the turnpike when I was a kid. Bunch of morons running across the highway with fishing poles to fish the next pond.

Panama Red 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2014 It's amazing that we made it to adulthood intact. Once I'm healed and back at work I'll be spending time in the Miami area from time to time. Will be making time to fish some of the ponds and canals for exotics. Hoping I can still make it across the road without getting squashed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When I think of the stuff we pulled as kids, I still get the shivers. Sheer luck that any of us lived long enough to reproduce. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No problem bro, it comes complete with a half assed broken down, smelly old bastard to provide proper rigging and casting instructions. I also have acquired some "special hops" from Colorado for a special beer brew. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

agn54 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2014 Dave would show you his garden of "hops" as well but the feds may come calling. Unfortunately Florida hasn't caught up to Colorado in that department yet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
