Tarpon Springs - 'The Sponge Capital of the World'
Ever wonder why Tarpon Springs is considered the “Sponge Capital of the World?” It’s because Greek sponge divers settled there after the discovery of natural sponge beds in the early 1900s! Get to know the history of the Tarpon Springs Sponge Docks by going on a Sponge Diving Exhibition with St. Nicholas Boat Line. #LiveAmplified
Sponge diving boat tour Tarpon Springs FL
2017 vacation. We made a pit stop on the way home in Tarpon Springs and we went on the St Nicholas Boat Line. They explained about sponge diving and even went to dive for a sponge in an old fashioned diving suit.

Snapper Limit (near) The Seven Mile Bridge on a HIGH Wind Day
HEAVY winds all weekend so instead of fishing on the bridge exposed to the wind I fished NEAR the Seven Mile Bridge, in a sheltered spot and caught a limit of snapper in less than an hour.

Florida Keys Wooden Boat Fishing, Me and my stuff:
My Boats:
The original single seater Kayak is a Great Auk designed by Nick Shade of Guillemot Kayaks and built by me with my own two hands. It’s 16 1/2 feet long (the design is 17 feet, but I scaled it to fit in the garage I built it in) and 24 inches wide. This was the first boat I ever built.
“Tiny” the double kayak is another Nick Shade design (Micro Bootlegger) and was also built by me. Videos of the later parts of the build are on my channel for your perusal (don’t forget to like and comment). It’s 18 feet long and 28 inches wide, for a stable and roomy ride, even with a bunch of fishing stuff riding along with me (or a second person).
When I add the outrigger (which is just one of the pontoons off my Catamaran) I can include the Suzuki 2.5HP outboard to make tracks.
My “Three Week Canoe” was, once again, built by yours truly, and you can see the entire build in my award winning video series “The Three Week Strip Canoe Build”. Available on a computer screen near you. The design is the classic “Puddle Duck” by Gil Gilpatrick.
Last but not least (just kidding, yes it is), is my experimental and highly controversial “Stand Up Paddle Pontoon Catamaran Mini Party Barge”. Built AND designed by me, with no help or consultation of any kind from anyone. Which may explain why it confuses the hell out of anyone who sees it. It looks like a toy, paddles like a toy (but a really cool toy) and, best of all, is just plain fun.
My Bike:
My bike is a Schwinn (don’t you just love saying that?) Meridian Trike, because nothing says secure in his masculinity like riding down the side of US1 on a tricycle (I’m thinking of starting a trike club, we’ll get heavy leather jackets and sweat a lot, how cool am I?). Mine is tricked out with an LED headlight for early morning rides, a gigantic basket to hold all of my stuff, and four custom made PVC rod holders held on with the best hose clamps money can buy.
Fishing Gear:
My gear is mostly whatever cheap stuff I find at yard sales or on clearance, but when I buy quality it’s usually the Penn Fierce II series of spinning rod and real combos. What I like best about this Penn line is the name. Seriously, who doesn’t want to be “Fierce” (they work pretty well too). I’m also a fan of Mustad hooks (when I’m not cheating out and buying generics).
Cameras:
I have two primary cameras and a back up. The primaries are a GoPro Hero4 Black that I chose because someone offered it to me in trade for an arcade game I was trying to get rid of, and a GoPro Hero Session 4 that was a fathers day gift, so I will worship and treasure it forever (or until it quits working, whichever comes first). My backup camera is an iPhone 7 because, well duh, its got a camera built right in.
I do all of my editing on my iMac desktop computer because I’m old enough that I don’t just do it all on a laptop and I use the free GoPro Studio editing software because I’m cheap and don’t want to have to learn to use something better.
That’s me and my stuff. See you on the water.

Survival GILL NETTING (Usually ILLEGAL!) | Rare Underwater Footage
I test out the cheapest fishing survival gill net on Amazon in a private stocked pond. Originally, we tried to fish out all our trout, but this got to be quite the job since the fish shied away from worms, and lures (preferring pellet feed). As the season wore on, we decided to try to bowfish, spearfish and now, since it iced over, gill net the pond in effort to harvest all our stocked fish.
I will show you rare underwater video from a go pro of a fish actually being caught in the gill net. I will teach you exactly how to hang and use a gill net to catch fish and the size of the mesh you should use. Should you ever find yourself in a survival situation, a gill net is a huge asset. All our fish are provided by Lyndon Trout Hatcheries:
The aerator used in this video provided by The Dug Out Dude:
This gill net is super illegal in most areas, so please be careful using them. Even better, let me test out the gill net! If the nets are legal in your area, you might want to have one nearby in case you are in a survival situation. My Gear (Shop and Support):
I will use an ice auger to drill a channel right through the middle of the pond. Next, we put the gill net underwater. One end of the gill net has floats, the other sinkers, so the idea is to float the gill net in the water column and the fish will try to swim by and get caught in the net and twist all around getting more and more caught up.

World Record Tripletail! - Off The Hook Charters - Hilton Head Island Fishing
What a incredible day!
On the way back in from fishing a few miles off of Hilton Head I spotted this huge tripletail swimming underneath a dead horse shoe crab and pulled out my fly rod that was rigged with 20 pound class tippet and casted a red & white lefty's deceiver to what I knew could possibly be a world record fish. The fish took the fly and the fight was on for a awesome 10 minute battle! After netting the fish it weighed in right at 17 pounds which beat the current world record by 6 ounces that was caught in 1995 in Costa Rica.

On November 8-9, 2018, we brought together leaders and changemakers in ocean exploration, entertainment, recreation, and art to imagine new ways to empower an open, inclusive global community of ocean explorers. Our goal is to imagine creative ways to make the ocean so pervasive in modern culture that everyone has a positive association with and understanding of the sea.

Norwegian Sun Disaster Holiday Passengers Duped into Construction Cruise Captain Does Nothing!
Norwegian Sun Disaster Holiday Passengers Duped into Construction Cruise Captain Does Nothing! Norwegian deliberately duped 2000 passengers on the Norwegian Sun cruise ship into paying top dollar to take a construction cruise through the Panama Canal. Passengers were exposed to hazardous chemicals as floors and deck were ripped apart on the cruise. Construction dust gathered on top of tables in the buffet areas and likley on the food in the buffet. Some passengers were so affected by the chemicals in the varvishes used that they came close to fainting onboard the ship. Norwegian has offered a 25% credit towards a future cruise as opposed to a refund offer.
