Susan Baines Designs ~ 14k Gold "Pirates Rings"
"Handmade to look like these rings graced the fingers of Blackbeard and Long John Silver, before being lost to Davey Jones' Locker. That is...until you couldn't resist stacking them on your own fingers for that adventurous feel. Each piece of gold is hammered and bent into a ring, then "reticulated" to give each ring its own character and feel. No two are alike. I will even drop small diamonds randomly into the rings for even more interest and fun! So affordable, you'll want to buy multiple rings for a great effect!" ~ Susan B

Interesting St. George River catch!!! caught 6/25/08

"Super Fly" ~ Fly of the Month

"Super Fly" ~ Fly of the Month
S.S. Flies ~ Olive "Raghead" Crab ~ The raghead fly, originally designed for Permit & Bones, has been a killer for us when sight casting to Striped Bass around the numerous Mussel bars that fringe many of our shallow flats. We frequently encounter Stripers that are "Tailed Up"...yes Stripers do "tail", like an Abaco Bone or Redfish of Florida's famed Indian River Lagoon, Striped Bass often feed by grubbing around on the mud & eelgrass flats for crabs, shrimp and worms, leaving their tails wagging like flags in the breeze. A well presented fly presented just upcurrent of the "tailing" Striper...slowy crawled along the bottom will usually yield a strike...We've also seen an increase in the number of Winter Flounder caught "On The Fly" when using these smaller crab patterns, additionally. NOTE: for the non-fly anglers a well presented silver dollar sized live green crab pinned to a 1/0 hook or jighead slays "tailing" fish...We always have a good selection of crab flies as well as other crustacean, "Worm Hatch" & other finesse presentation flies in our flybox!!! ~ CHECK BACK SOON FOR THE NEXT "SUPER FLY" OF THE MONTH!!!
