Fishing with Captain Kimo

Bass Fishing Florida - Fishing for bass in Florida waters can be a thrilling experience, if you know where to go. There's are tons of places throughout Florida to fish for Bass. However, the area's most over looked are the small ponds that can be found in local communities and neighborhoods all over Florida.

Shimano fishing reels come in many different types for many different applications. I was personally looking for a Shimano fishing reel with multiple applications for an all purpose use. My interest was in a reel that I could take anywhere. Something that was light enough to carry, but strong enough to pull in a 20lb monster.

Rocket Fishing Rod - My first thought was "do our kids really need a fishing rod that can cast by itself?" Doesn't that take the fun out of fishing? My assumption about the Rocket Fishing Rod was wrong, it is a fishing rod but it wasn't meant to replace the traditional rods. The Rocket Fishing Rod is a toy designed for our kids to enjoy fishing.

Saw this video on Bounty Fishing and I had to post it on my site to share with everyone here. Great video that's worth watching.

Last weekend a few of my friends and I got together and decided to do some freshwater fishing for Bluegill.

I wanted to fish for Bowfin but the group wanted to catch some small pan fish for sun drying.

Sun drying fish is done by salting prepared fish and then leaving it to dry underneath the sun. I will post the recipe when I have time to write the article.

Sunday evening my mother and brother went fishing at the old canal off of PGA Boulevard. I talked about this old spot during my last post about bowfins. My mom would have been in the picture but she's a little camera shy.

When I was a kid my mother and father took me fresh water fishing on a canal that flowed from Okeechobee Lake. I remember catching these enormous fish that looked like something from prehistoric times. We never knew exactly what they were called back then, until recently when I fired up my computer and did some Googling.

This is what happens when you go against a 400lb grouper. I won't ruin the surprise you'll have to watch the video to see. I promise you'll get a good laugh.
