Amidst approx. one million of his best friends, one Peanut Bunker dares to stand out, at his own peril.

The first rule of hooking a bass in a foot of water is: always clear your line. Once hooked, every bass will take off for the channel and the horizon.

Which bass is best?
We like them all, but a clouser-slurping, sight fished bass in shallow water is high on the list.

Greasy calm:
Oil was historically used to calm the seas around a ship in stormy weather to facilitate rescue or repairs. We don’t carry “storm oil” anymore but when things glass off naturally you’ll find me on the platform looking for fish.

Already looking forward to what the 2022 season will hold! So, here’s a quick reminder that my booking calendar is live on my website at the link in my bio. Let’s get on the water next year!

Happy belated-holidays from the always busy Rising Tide crew! We hope yours was filled with family, fishy gifts and maybe a dash of snow.

All over the flats you’ll see little olive green crab scuttling about. Although they’re a highly invasive species in our waters, the stripers sure don’t seem to mind the extra protein hanging around!

You’d be surprised at how well a grey and white striped bass can blend into the bottom of a brown mud flat.

When you need those extra few feet of height to see what’s lurking around the nervous pile of baitfish…

Big flies save lives!
I always have a rod rigged with a hookless plug and a big hollow on an intermediate line. Watching packs of bass chase down an erratic plug is exhilarating!

#NoMoreBalloons
It’s time to knock off the tradition of helium balloons. Whether they’re lost, or intentionally released, they’re horrendously detrimental to our marine species. So, next time you want to celebrate something by releasing something into the air, pick a bubble machine instead.

The beauty of this fish is self evident. What’s not are the hours of casting, gallons of fuel burned, flies lost, and skin baked by the sun.

Each of these fish carry with them the history and memory of their predecessors as they make their annual journey north along our coasts and into our rivers. These fish will return every year feeding in the same areas they did the year before, and given the right circumstances, so will their offspring!

Looking forward to some time in the mountains now that the snowy weather has arrived. These first harsh, cold days always turn my thoughts to my favorite winter playgrounds.
