That made for an incredibly pleasant evening. A few hookups would've made it better, but I'm certainly not complaining! . #PleasantEvening #lightbreeze #filteredsunset #NOBUGS #Gheenoe #Highsider #lake #lakefishing #Flyfishing #warmwaterflyfishing #sunset #clouds #water #boat #FLOutdoors #FlyFishFL #TheSuburbanAngler

Actually did a bit of fishing early this afternoon and managed to bring a few Warmouth to hand as the distant thunder rolled over the lake. They all took a black woolly bugger with one strip of dark blue flash on each side. Gotta tie up some more and get back out there with the boat! . #GreatDay #Warmouth #sunfish #tannic #flyfishing #FlyFishFL #flyfishflorida #FLOutdoors #TigerBayStateForest #freshwaterflyfishing #warmwaterflyfishing #woollybugger #fly #flytying #TheSuburbanAngler

Dr. Aaron Adams, unfortunately, wasn't able to join us tonight, so instead, the club's captains had a round table discussion on local tarpon fishing, followed by a presentation from Capt. Frank Brownell on the state of recovery programs in the Mosquito Lagoon. Great information shared tonight! . #MidCoastFlyFishers #MCFF #tarpon #MosquitoLagoon #flyfishing #fishing #localguides #Conservation #restoration #FLFlyfishing #FLOutdoors #TheSuburbanAngler

Bulow Creek from the Bulow Plantation Ruins Historic State Park. Next time I'm bringing the Gheenoe for that 13-mile canoe trail and all the fish that knew to stay away from the fishing platform!!! . #BulowCreek #BulowPlantation #BulowPlantationRuins #HistoricStatePark #FLStateParks #StatePark #FlyFishFL #FLFlyfishing #FLOutdoors #TheSuburbanAngler

Stopped by St. Augustine's newest, local Fly Shop after work tonight to pick up this awesome new hat! Understated, while being perfectly descriptive! Wonder where they got the idea? . #FlyShop #OldCityFlyShop #StAugustine #localflyshop #supportyourlocalflyshop #shopsign #flyfishing #flytying #saltwaterflyfishing #TheSuburbanAngler

A very insightful presentation on rod construction from industry insider Capt. Todd Vivian of Spot Stalker Charters and Mud Hole Custom Tackle! Here, Capt. Todd is demonstrating the effects of spine orientation in a rod blank.

Dr. Art Litowitz of the Riverside Conservancy gave an overview presentation to the Mid Coast Fly Fishers on the work, collaboration, research and experimentation they're doing in the area of shoreline restoration and Living Shoreline conservation techniques. Fascinating information about a pretty common sense approach that definitely warrants learning more! . #RiversideConservancy #LivingShoreline #ShorelineRestoration #MosquitoLagoon #MCFF #MidCoastFlyFishers #saltwaterflyfishing #coastalliving #flyfishing #TheSuburbanAngler

Beautiful morning for a fly shop grand opening in St. Augustine! I highly recommend you get by Old City Fly Shop today to check it out! Huge congratulations to the guys behind it, and I wish them the best of luck! It's on my route home from the office, so I know I'll be spending a lot of time here. I was honored to be asked to add a sticker to their collection, so if you go, take a selfie with The Suburban Angler logo, tag me, and I'll send you a sticker pack! . #OldCityFlyShop #flyshop #StAugustine #flyfishing #saltwaterflyfishing #backcountryflyfishing #flies #flytying #flygear #FlyFishFL #FLOutdoors #supportyourlocalflyshop #TheSuburbanAngler

Driving up in the morning to check out the new flyshop! I'm pretty excited to have a shop between home and the office again, and I know this is a great group of folks! I'll try to share some pictures of the store during the event! . #OldCityFlyShop #NewFlyShop #GrandOpening #flyshop #localflyshop #StAugustine #flyfishing #flygear #flies #flytying #TheSuburbanAngler

After a few months of listening intently, I finally made my very first contacts on the radio tonight! The first was with a Parks On The Air activator in upstate New York on 20 meters, then I checked in to the Volusia County Traffic Net on 2 meters. I'm learning something new every day and looking forward to making many more contacts! It's very reassuring to know that I'll still have communications available when I'm fishing and camping in places without cellular service. . #hamradio #AmateurRadio #HFradio #vhfuhf #emcomm #radiooperator #backcountrycommunication #emergencycommunication #POTA #VolusiaCoTrafficNet #KO4UTH #FLOutdoors #backcountryflyfishing #backcountrycamping #boondocking #TheSuburbanAngler

I hope you guys will join me tomorrow as I cover the 2022 ARRL National Convention and HamCation at the Central Florida Fairgrounds! I've fished a lot (and gotten stuck!) in places where cellular service was nonexistant, so I'm putting higher importance on alternative methods of communication while off grid or during emergencies. I'll try to keep my coverage within the parameters of backcountry recreation, but I'll be glad to show or answer questions on any aspects I can! . #HamCation #HamCation2022 #ARRL #ARRLNationalConvention #arrlnationalconvention2022 #hamradio #AmateurRadio #offgrid #offgridcomms #backcountry #backcountrycommunication #flyfishing #hamradiotradeshow #hamfest #TheSuburbanAngler

If you're in the Port Orange area this morning, the Halifax Sport Fishing Club is having their Fishing Expo until 4:00 this afternoon! Nearly 50 local vendors are signed up for booth space and, despite the cold (by Florida standards) weather, they're having a heck of a turn out! . #HalifaxSportFishingClub #HSFC #FishingExpo #PortOrange #HalifaxRiver #swapmeet #openhouse #Florida #FloridaOutdoors #FLOutdoors #FLFishing #fishinggear #flygear #TheSuburbanAngler

Road trip preps! I'm looking forward to hitting the road and attending some fly fishing shows this year! So, I finally took the time to securely mount these Ram Mounts X-Grips on the dash of the truck. The large one holds my phone so well that I picked up the small version for my vhf/uhf radio remote head. Let's go! . #roadtrip #roadtrippreps #RamMounts #XGrip #icom #ic2730 #phone #vhfuhf #hamradio #mobilehamradio #mobileshack #146.52 #simplex #flyfishing #flyfishingshow #showcoverage #travel #comms #TheSuburbanAngler
