Fishing Buddies – Above: Jeff Janecek and Ed Sunka acted as both photographers and companions to get these great shots of Jeff’s monster bass (caught on one of his #8 poppers), and Ed’s big speck, a “by catch” of the February Shad outing.
Below: Nanette O’Hara proudly displays a nice snook she caught recently while staying at their cabin in Everglades City in late March. Spring is a favorite season to fish there, and the snook were very hungry and happy. Meanwhile, husband Rick looks both unhappy and fishless – but don’t let that look fool you. Rick is secretly very happy, because he jumped two tarpon on this trip to the Glades -- a hefty 125-pounder along with a very acrobatic 50-pounder. Alas, they gave him the "fin-ger" (in the form of the fly rocketing back in his face at warp speed) after a few jumps, thus explaining why he is fishless in the photo.
