One of the most common concerns of new and slightly seasoned fly fishers is their inability to cast a line “far enough” to catch fish or they just don’t feel they cast well enough to keep from embarrassing themselves while on the water with buddies. We act as cheerleaders and coaches letting them know that distance is truly relative and it’s not really about how far you throw but how well you can hit your target and what you do with the fly once it gets there. Most folks nod in understanding while we’re in the shop but then stare at us like we’re Martians when we drop a 90 or 100 foot cast out on the grass. “But you just said I don’t need to cast that far,” is the typical response when they see someone bomb out a cast like that. We’ve got some explaining to do right about then.
Let’s start by saying potential casting distance is influenced by a number of factors including:
But in the end we just want to know how far is far enough. Well, as a general rule I think most successful open-water (as opposed to stream and brook) fly anglers will agree that they hook most of their fish between 50 and 65 feet away, which means that just about anybody capable of casting a minimum of 35 feet can catch fish and everything beyond that distance will just increase their chances. Why a minimum of 35? That’s because most modern fly rods, take a 9’ 8 weight for example, are designed to load and unload efficiently with the first thirty to thirty five feet of a matched weight fly line outside the rod tip. The lines weight that makes the cast possible is distributed across the first 30 or so feet making casts of less than 30 feet a bit difficult (because the weight isn't enough to effectively load the rod), while casts from 35 to 65 or so feet become a piece of cake. Short and special purpose fly rods load differently and it’s up to the angler to figure out what type of line will work best it’s effective range is.
When blind casting to cover a lot of water I’ll cast to 65 or 70 feet, strip in to the 35 or 40 foot mark, pickup and cast again, that way I’m using the weighted portion of the line to my greatest advantage and not wasting time. If casting to a fish, I think we’d all agree that getting as close as possible without spooking it is the key, then the casting distance can be minimized and accuracy increased. Most fish on the flats will strike a fly within the first few seconds of sensing its presence so it really isn’t necessary to strip the fly across 25 feet of unproductive water just to have the fish inhale it when it’s within two or three feet. So getting within 45 or 50 feet of the target puts it smack-dab in the middle of our effective range. Practice to the point where you can reliably pickup the line’s head and within one or two false casting cycles, return the fly to the strike zone at your maximum effective distance. PERFECT!!!
So why do fly guys talk about casting 90, 100, 110 feet? Because it feels good to be able to lay out a giant cast that lays out perfectly straight and on target. And also because practicing casts beyond traditional fishing distances will ensure that making a money shot to 65 or 70 feet will be a piece of cake. It looks great in a photograph or a movie but it isn’t practical or necessary to cast further in the vast majority of real-life fly fishing situations. Trout anglers may never need to reach very far at all but you can bet your last dollar that they need to be accurate, have great line control, and be able to perform a wide range of casting styles in order to put the fly on the water and not in the trees.
I guess the lesson to be learned at this point is that distance is relative. Practice to reach distances slightly beyond your normal fishing range, and fish at ranges where you can maintain good accuracy and control. If that’s 40 feet…So be it. Keep practicing and eventually it will increase to 50, 60, or even 70 feet.

I knew I’d need to get some type of optic for my new AR-15 MSR right after shooting it for the first time. It wasn’t that the rifle wasn’t accurate enough without putting something on it, but rather I wasn’t accurate enough. I couldn’t see the target or the sights in fine enough detail to allow any kind of precision shooting that I’d become used to with bolt-action rifles and Leupold scopes. But what optic should I put on it? Reticle scope, reflex, prism, or telescopic red dot? Did I want something military grade or would I have to settle for something a little less expensive? It’s would be a tough choice for anyone, especially for a guy who has a hard time choosing.
I was looking for a sight that could do double duty as a hunting optic as well as home defense, but those are normally two entirely different pieces of equipment with unique performance characteristics. Hunting sights might be adjustable for up close or long-range work, while home defense sights are normally fixed power because the ranges are limited. Hunting weapons require repeatable sub-MOA precision from steady rests (for the most part) but defensive weapons require fast target acquisition from sometimes unusual positions. So what sight will do both those jobs?
I ultimately chose the SPARC II by Vortex and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Mounting and sighting in (bore sighting, then zeroing at the range) was very quick and took way fewer shots than I expected. And now, after having put about 500 rounds downrange while looking through the sight, I believe it’s ready for just about anything I throw at it including defending the house or a impromptu hunting trip. Unlimited eye relief allows the sight to be mounted anywhere on the upper’s picatinny rail, and zero parallax error provides reliable sighting even when the shooter isn't sighting directly down the center of the scope. The 2MOA red dot is small enough to allow precision work at reasonable distances but is still large enough to pickup quickly when speed matters. The dot’s intensity is adjustable over a wide range of settings to ensure good visibility in low light or on the brightest days. Numerous mounting options allow for co-witnessing iron sights or low-profile mounting in a more traditional hunting configuration. All caps have retention cables and flip-up covers are included. What more could you ask for?
I don’t expect to be picking off prairie dogs at 300 yards but using the rifle for wild hogs here in Florida is a distinct possibility. Hitting my target shouldn’t be too much of an issue as long as I don’t have too much coffee in the morning. The SPARC II has proven to be a nice piece of equipment that should give me years of shooting enjoyment as well as come through in clutch situations. Check them out if you’re looking for an affordable high quality scope with great features and an impeccable warranty program.

Life has so many things to experience that it would be totally impossible to get to all of them but there are a huge number that are so simple and easily accessible folks over look them until later in life. My twenty something year old daughters finally got to try something that they missed out on when we lived in the great frozen north of Erie, Pennsylvania.
Tobogganing is one of those things that people in the north take for granted and their neighbors to the south think they’re crazy for wanting to go outside to freeze their backsides off just to get a face-full of snow. But there’s no way to fully explain the exhilaration of racing down a hillside in the dark with little or no control, all while getting blasted in the face with fresh white powder that steals your breath away, leaving you gasping and laughing uproariously at the bottom of the run. It’s hard to believe that sharing a frozen moment of hilarity can strengthen bonds between family members and create memories sure to last a lifetime.
We recently crossed this off the list on a frozen evening following a day of steady snowfall while on family vacation, which is a story to itself with six adults and an infant making the journey. Everyone loaded into the vehicles and drove a few miles to a local park with a pretty good hill covered with newly deposited powder. Tayler and Brittany were the first to make the run and you would have thought something was horribly wrong due to the screams of terror coming from the billowing white comet plummeting down the hill. But the joyous laughter coming from the bottom reassured everyone that both girls had survived and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. One, 30 second run down a dark and snow-covered hill was worth the price of flights, rental cars, hotels, food, and everything else.
It’s such a simple thing and it’s hard to believe it took this many years to enjoy. The screams, laughter, and smiles will live forever in our memories reminding us that it isn’t all about the things we amass during our lives, but rather about the things we do during our lives. My girls won’t forget that night and neither will I and their mother.
Step out of the box and make some memories.

Niagara Falls is one of the great wonders of the natural world which thankfully you don’t need to spend a fortune to experience, but who in their right mind would go there in the dead of winter when the outside air temperature (without wind chill) is hovering below ten degrees? Well as Doc Holiday (played by Val Kilmer in “Tombstone”) would say, “I’m your huckleberry.”
No one ever said common sense ruled when on family vacations, which is why we just had to make the drive to see the falls when most other tourists are keeping warm and toasty in the casinos. But let me tell you that it was worth the price to get some beautiful pictures and to share the day with family. The falls are spectacular regardless of the season, and maybe even a little more so in the winter because of the freezing mist that covers every surface in a glistening layer of ice that defies the suns warming rays. The power of water and ice is obvious when you see the millions of gallons pouring over the fall’s rim and then the growing layers of ice formed by the mist settling everywhere. It’s likely that the state park would be closed for the winter if not for the generous use of rock salt to keep the sidewalks and observation deck clear.
Niagara Falls itself is actually three different falls (Horseshoe, American, Bridal Veil) that form a natural stairway between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario, with the United States on one side and Canada on the other. You can view the falls from either country if you remember to bring along your passport, which we unfortunately did not. It had never really occurred to me until this last visit that all the water in the Great Lakes eventually reaches the ocean at Quebec City, resembling a large river rather than a series of independent lakes. All the water contained in the lakes west of Niagara (Superior, Michigan, Huron, and Erie) eventually passes over the falls on its journey east into Lake Ontario and ultimately to the North Atlantic. That single fact alone is mind boggling to a simple person like me.
Here are a couple more interesting facts from the Niagara Falls State Park’s website :
Niagara Falls is a great place to visit no matter what the season with a whole lot more to see and do than I can possible mention in a short blog. Thousands of honeymooning newlyweds have visited the region to celebrate their union, while millions of visitors from around the world gaze in wonderment at one of God’s greatest creations. I’m glad that my children have finally been able to visit the falls and I hope to be able to visit again sometime in the future. Maybe when my grandchildren are old enough to enjoy the sights and sounds of this wonderful natural formation.

It’s a cold, frosty morning as I sit on the ground waiting in anticipation.
I see him. He moves softly. Quietly. He noses through the leaves on the ground only to peek up a second or two.
I can see the frozen breath hanging around his nose as he exhales, unaware that I am watching his every move. He moves closer to me as I silently focus in on him.
He’s even closer now, and I can feel the tingly feeling come over my skin as the adrenaline starts to rush through me. I take a deep breath, focus in, and…
Click.
I now have another photo to add to my “already full” collection on social media.
Alright, you got me. This isn’t about hunting.
It’s just as important to have the right gear when going out into the wild, whether hunting or shooting photography. I have recently found myself getting out more and more and loving every minute of it!
Here are some helpful *starter* tips to get you as close to nature as possible!
1. Get a good back pack!I can not stress it enough! Not only do you want something to carry all your camera equipment, but you’re also going to want room for snacks (I LOVE the KIND chocolate and peanut butter energy bars) and plenty of water, and other necessities like a first aid kit, compass, flint, and even TP; You never know what can happen.
Ascend D2400 DaypackLightweight, comfortable, and durable, the Ascend® D2400 Daypack gives you a compact pack that’s perfect for day hikes. The D2400 helps you handle loads in comfort with contoured and padded shoulder straps with sternum strap, a padded back panel with airmesh pods for ventilation, and a removable web waist belt. Fill up the pack’s 2400 cubic inches of space easily thanks to the easy packing panel-load main compartment and zippered front pocket with organizer panel. Pack also makes a great everyday pack choice, with its internal laptop/tablet padded sleeve. Side compression straps keeps load secure and easier to haul. Dual water bottle pockets (bottles not included). Made of 600D polyester, 420D nylon, and 1680D ballistic nylon, the D2400 also features tough YKK® zippers with easy-pull string loops and durable Nifco and Duraflex® hardware and buckles.
(And it comes in purple - my favorite!)
2. Comfy Hiking Boots!I literally picked out a pair of these boots today. After my old natural reflection boots finally “gave me the boot” (haha-cheesy, I know) I decided it was time to get a new pair with a little more tread. These bad boys (or girls?) are 100% water proof and have a mean looking tread on the bottom. They’re super lightweight on my feet even though they appear bulkier.
When your hike or workday take you into rough terrain or extreme wet conditions, you can trust RedHead® Talus II Water-Resistant Boots for superior traction. These super-tough, mid-height boots feature a rugged suede leather and mesh upper. Your feet will stay comfortable all day with a comfortable mesh lining and removable PU insoles for breathability. RedHead Talus II Water-Resistant Hiking Boots have tough rubber outsoles with an aggressive tread that gives you gripping power on wet surfaces or harsh conditions.
This shoe also has super ratings!
Being an uber coffee enthusiast I never leave without my thermos! ….Never! It’s important to stay warm on chilly mornings. Surprisingly enough, some of my best snap shots have happened when I was stopped somewhere having a “coffee break”.
Giving you the same strength and insulating performance as the traditional full size vacuum bottle, the Thermos® Vacuum Insulated 24 oz. Leak-Proof Bottle comes sized for easy carrying. This durable bottle features tough, double wall, stainless steel construction for trustworthy leakproof performance. Thermos’ classic double wall vacuum insulation delivers great temperature retention, giving you cool-to-the-touch performance with hot foods and sweat-free performance with cold liquids. Easy opening push button lid makes getting a drink quick and easy. Holds 24 oz. BPA-free.
I really love this Thermos and the color is gorgeous! (Midnight Blue)
Of course there’s hundreds of other things I could tell you, but this is the most basic way to get you started quickly enough to get you out in the woods! Always wear layers, in the cold weather of course, and be ready to sit for a bit. I promise you will get so close to nature you will want to reach out and touch it.
Visit your local Bass Pro in Kodak (Your favorite of course!) and let us know how we can get you out into the woods! Send us pictures of what you saw on your adventure!
Until the next adventure,
Ainsley

Hello everyone, and welcome back to this weeks report! The fishing this week has been an exciting variety, but still very slow on the Sailfishing. Plenty of Mutton Snappers, Groupers, Kings, Jacks, and a few Wahoo and Blackfin Tunas on the wrecks and live bottom out to 300’, along with some nice Vermillion and Yellow Eye Snappers. Some really nice Porgies mixed in there as well. Live Pilchards and Cigar minnows have been the bait of choice, but deboned Ballyhoo have been working as well as Speedos. The reef bite has been decent as well with the Yellowtails being fired up as the water has warmed up a couple degrees. The patches remain strong, and should continue with this new front. Bait has been a little difficult, but as things begin to warm up should get back to normal. Although, it looks like the wind is going to kick up a bit for Friday and Saturday,so let’s just hope it stays more NE than East as it won’t be as rough. The current is smoking to the NE, so it has the ability to be a sloppy weekend any way we look at it. We will just have to wait and see how it all plays out. The water has cleaned up offshore finally, so I would think that some sails should move in on the reef and local hot spots. This could be just what we have been waiting for! I am keeping my fingers crossed!
Well, that is it for this week! Remember, if you need a charter please feel free to stop by World Wide Sportsman’s Bayside Marina and check us out, as I will be glad to help you out with whatever you need. Fishing report provided by Captain James Chappell 305-803-1321 http://ift.tt/1IWINNW out of World Wide Sportsman Bayside Marina, Islamorada, Florida. I hope everyone has a great weekend, and remember to boat responsibly!
As the days of cold winter winds start to dwindle down, the warm and sunny spring morning’s loom on the horizon.

To help you feel comfortable and stylish while taking in the full feeling of the new season the men and women of The North Face clothing company have brought you a revolutionary variety of clothing that matches the colors, and atmosphere that will make this spring one to remember.
No matter what the weather brings, The North Face has many new styles and technologies that enhance the way your outdoor exploration is experienced. From jackets like the Apex that provides a breathable and wind resistant outing, to the iconic North Face Thermoball which excels in shielding the wearer from any cold temperatures mother nature may throw your way while keeping the mobility needed to enjoy the aroma that is brought by spring. With these new styles coming to the forefront as the season changes, there is no better place to get what you need than at Bass Pro Shops.
Hats and Gear to Heat Your Head
Long lasting cold fronts and a long period of cold water has had the water in Everglades National Park a little slower than normal, but be that as it may every day we find fish. I have said it before and I will say it again we are so spoiled here in Islamorada. What most of us guides feel is not a banner day still lives up to the expectations of our clientele, and when we have a good day most of our patrons are blown away, and when we think it is an exceptional day the client is left with life long memories. Anyway the bridges although a little slow are still producing some decent snapper action, but that the only place seemingly. The Mackerel bite in the bay has slowed, but in the gulf it is still pretty good. Snook bite around Flamingo is slow, but around areas of the cape it is holding its own. Redfish around Flamingo are making a moderate showing, their strong at the last of the tide and into the ebb. When the wind has allowed the guys have been frequently making trips to the patches and the bite out there has been topnotch. Even some unseasonable permits have made quite a show. Speaking of permit Captain Rich Burson took his party Permit fishing and they managed two Permit over twenty five pounds and both on ten pound test… Good Stuff. Sometimes it seem like there is no best or worst time maybe someday we will have a Tarpon Tournament in February, but I am not going to hold my breath. Any way come down and come see us here at World Wide Sportsman Bayside Marina, lots of things to see and do, and a lot of talented guides to choose from. Catchemup Captain Ron.
There are lots to do and lots to catch, and Fun to have, no matter what the weather.
