Putting the @polarpro dome to work and dialing in a new surf routine. The beach renourishment berms are perfect to fish from when the sargassum is stacked.
-
The height allows the line to settle over and above the sargassum while fishing bait on the bottom.
-
Slack tide at first light with zero wind has been the move. That’s when the mats settle, the line stays clean, and the fish slide in tight.
-
Good luck and tight lines!!

Tarpon fishing has had its ups and downs the last few months a lot of L’s with very few W’s but that’s how it goes regardless I still grind it out and put the time in weekly

No matter what you pursue — surfing, fishing, riding, or simply relaxing — the great outdoors always provides.

I had the pleasure to work along side of @apogeeadventure to bring his vision to life!

What do yall think?

The first ever South Florida Surf Casters BBQ was a smashing success!

Huge thanks to our generous sponsors - especially @barrettrods, @david_rocca_, and @peteutschig for joining us - as well as @personalbestlures, @odmrods, and @ulua_hunt for providing some epic giveaways.

A big thank-you to @tarponless for opening his home to 50+ surfcasters, and most importantly to everyone who came out and made the day so special (we tried tagging as many of you as possible!)

An incredible turnout, great giveaways, nonstop laughs, stories that only come from time in the surf, and some unreal home cooking from @bbqbassbros_ and Teri, it was everything we hoped it would be.

Events like this are a reminder that surfcasting is about more than just fishing - it’s about community. For everyone who couldn’t make it this time, we look forward to seeing you at the next BBQ 🤙🌊

Locked in from the sandy beach of S. Florida with the 10’6 Frontier X (3-8oz). Frontier X surf rod was built for moments like this—power, distance, and control when it counts. 💪🌊
