Holiday in the Keys

Here are just a few photos from the Keys. I am completely unorganized for fishing as I was planning on sitting by the pool, but after seeing some fish I might have to grab a rod and go out to the rocks where I am staying. So far it looks to be too windy for fly fishing and the beach where we are at has been covered in seaweed and rubbish as the sea is pushing inland. Still, we have seen some fish around the place so it might be a goer if I get my a into g.



If you look hard enough you will see a Tarpon that was about 4-5 feet long cursing the docks in Key West. There must have been about half a dozen of these guys lurking around waiting for feeding time.

2011 - Holiday Fly Swap

Finally got all these guys done. I have been stuck at 20 for a few weeks due to other commitments. The theme of the swap was soft hackles, so I did a holographic wet fly.
