Randall's Run Steelhead

Big Fish Bob Randall caught these Steelhead today on the Little Manistee River. They were 6 and 7 pounds. Bob caught these in Randall's Run, which is a secret stream that only a few of us know about.

NAVY SEALS???

Could you imagine being a fish and seeing these guys coming after you? I guess that Seal training comes in handy.Posted by Picasa

The Thunderbirds


Pat and I attended the Air show Saturday at Homestead Air Force Base. This was the first show they have had in 17 years since Hurricane Andrew destroyed the base. We went with our friends Guy, a retired pilot, and Sue and their son Jerry and his family, who just retired as a Navy fighter pilot. Being with them we learned a lot about our military planes and the weapons they carry. It was a great show and I would recomend that you go to one if you have never been to one.

Gag and Red Grouper

Patrick O'Rourke holds up an eight pound Gag Grouper he caught while fishing the Backcountry with his father-in-law, Captain Keysmon.
He also caught a 12 pound Red Grouper using Pinfish as bait.
He also caught a few Bonnet and Nurse Sharks.
We fished for about 3 hours this morning and did not see another boat and when we got stopped by the Park Ranger he said you know why you got stopped and I said yes, we are the only boat out and he said that's right. He was a nice guy, for a change, and we left without any tickets. But then again we did not do anything wrong this time.
