Capt. Gordon's Fishing Reports

Albie fishing

I don’t get to go albie fishing anymore. Bounding across the main is tough in a 16 foot poling skiff. My buddy Danny Adams from Old Yeller Charters took me out today. We went here and there a little bit but then it was game on! I think between the two of us we boated 30 albies in the 10 pound range. I was using a Crease Fly for all mine so I got to see all those awesome explosions when they took it. Plus I just prefer to cast the floating line. Thanks Danny. Had a blast!

Lawsuit being brought against NCDMF

It’s finally happening. The boys at the Coastal Fisheries Reform Group are suing the NC Division of Marine Fisheries and Marine Fisheries Commission. Hopefully this will finally force them to enact something to get these nets out of the water finally.

Post from Flyfishmagazine.com blog about a bad day on the water for my friend Capt Tom Roller when some Gillnetters decided to make things difficult for him:

Tailer tail

This is what your deck looks like when you are wading around here and get back in the boat without washing your boots off.

Nice close up shot of redfish tail. Check out the colors and you can really see some details in the fins.

Carbon Fiber Tiller Pillar

I just got one of these this week. I must say that first of all it is a huge improvement over the PVC pipes I had been using. Second, it is a wonderfully designed and built product overall. I am going to shoot some video and post it up this week. Was going to do it today but it has been pouring rain here for over 12 hours now.
