Cajun Man Theophile Bourgeois

1 week ago | anglersjournal.com | Charlie Levine

There’s a good chance you haven’t fished with a Louisiana guide who is also a tattoo artist and musician. Say hello to Theophile BourgeoisOn any given day, Theophile Bourgeois may be playing a gig in New Orleans with his band, drawing out a tattoo for himself or a client, or hitting the back bayous in search of redfish and speckled seatrout.
Hurricane Anxiety

1 week ago | anglersjournal.com | Charlie Levine

They always seem to strike in the middle of the night, making their arrival even more demonic — the darkness hiding their face. We hunker down in the center of our home, camping out in the windowless family room. While exhausted from all the prep and the sea of emotions, sleep is impossible. Wind screams against the side of the house. The dog growls and barks as debris from the 100-year-old live oak in our front yard bounces off the roof.
Valhalla V-29 Hybrid: Inshore Meets Offshore

1 week ago | anglersjournal.com | Charlie Levine

A lot of boatbuilders use the term “hybrid” when explaining a new model. The moniker can refer to propulsion options or a versatile layout. In the case of the Valhalla V-29 Hybrid, however, it’s all about fishing. The V-29 Hybrid was designed for anglers who want a stylish, high-performance center console that is equally at home fishing a shallow bay or coastal estuary as it is trolling for bluewater pelagics.
Redfish One-Two Punch

1 week ago | anglersjournal.com | Owen Burke

Inshore guide Capt. Tommy Derringer, 48, chases redfish in the shallow creeks, flats and backwater estuaries off the Intracoastal Waterway around St. Augustine, Florida. Since his early teens, redfish have predominantly been his game — to the point of obsession. Spin, fly or bait, Derringer does it all. I caught up with him ahead of a late-winter charter to ask about his favorite spring approach.
Fishing Ascension Bay: Where the Sea Meets the Sky

2 months ago | anglersjournal.com | Charlie Levine

There is no better way to wash off the annoyances of airline travel than to step aboard a boat. The long wait outside the Cancún airport and the bumpy stretch of road through the tourism zone in Tulum sailed off in the rearview mirror as we loaded our gear onto the Grand Slam Lodge panga and set off for open waters. A light drizzle fell as the guide, Gaspi, opened up the throttle on the Honda outboard and headed toward a small cut in the mangroves.
Globetrotting fly fisherman and photographer Pat Ford has never lost his thirst for adventure

2 months ago | anglersjournal.com | William Sisson

The scene could have been ripped from a Hemingway story. On a seamount more than 100 miles off Costa Rica, a white-haired salt stood in the cockpit fighting a blue marlin on a fly rod. The battle was as mano-a-mano as it gets in this theater. A 300-pound marlin, 20-pound tippet and a 75-year-old Don Quixote with a 14-weight rod. What could go wrong? One hour became two, and the powerful fish still hadn’t jumped. Instead, it rested far below with its pectoral fins extended horizontally.
NOAA Withdraws Proposed Speed Restrictions

Jan 17, 2025 | anglersjournal.com | David Conway

“This is a huge step forward for American boat manufacturers, coastal economies and outdoor enthusiasts across the U.S.,” NMMA’s Frank Hugelmeyer told Trade Only Today. The National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration’s withdrawal yesterday of a proposal to limit speeds for 35- to 65-foot boats off the Eastern Seaboard to 10 knots for seven months of the year to protect North Atlantic right whales has been met with relief and enthusiasm in the marine industry.
Out of the Dust: The Cult-Classic Film "Tarpon"

Jan 3, 2025 | anglersjournal.com | Owen Burke

Key West has a long history of drawing fishing luminaries. Novelist (and dentist) Zane Grey was among the first. Then, of course, came Ernest Hemingway and his band of miscreants, beggars and hangers on. Hot on Hemingway’s heels in the throes of a fly-fishing high when the sport was taking to the brine, the late-1960s guard was, from an angling perspective, the most prolific of them all.
New Boat: Grady-White 345 Freedom

Dec 19, 2024 | anglersjournal.com | Charlie Levine

The design team at Grady-White has a knack for taking great boats and making them even better. When they introduce a feature that becomes a customer must-have, the designers will roll out the same touches on other models across the lineup. The Freedom 345 is a great example, combining the comfort and style of the Freedom 415 with the fishability of the Canyon 456 in a slightly smaller package.
Fall Sketches from a Striped Bass Beach

Dec 16, 2024 | anglersjournal.com | William Sisson

A pair of young landscapers pulls into a lot in an old, red dump truck filled with brush. Two surf rods are laid across the load. By the looks of things, they are knocking off work a little early. Good for them. They could have been me 40 years ago. It is the last week of October. The rutted trail to the beach snakes past dozens of milkweed plants heavy with seed pods swollen to bursting.
