FL 2013

Post by Marcelk »

So I am back from my travels in Collier and as I have some difficulty to adjust back to the CET timezone
I am still up at 0400 in the morning so why not do something productive.

Fishing was difficult this year for me as I missed the snook on the beach, I had quite a few slow
days at the beach.
From the locals I spoke I figured they also had a difficult year so maybe it was not just me.
Having said that I finally got my first decent redfish from the beach, hooked 3 and finally landed
one of them.
Also caught a lot of different and new species for me which made it all pretty interesting:

Some great pictures there and great catches on flies. I've never seen a gaff sail caught on fly before.
Dreaming the dream that one day I can be as good as some of the boatless pros and catch some 12 inch mangrove snapper.

Fantastic photos. Fishing might not have been exactly what you planned for but you caught and saw alot.

I really like some of the photos so I have to ask, what type of camera and lens did you use?

Canon PowerShot SX240 HS + Nikon D3100.
The powershot was used for zoom actions like
the wildlife. The Nikon was used for the rest, was
fitted with the kit-lens 18-55 plus a polarizing filter.
