  • Liz and I recently took a trip down to south Florida, to Everglades National Park for a week long camping and fishing trip in one of the wildest and most beautiful places on earth, the Everglades, and surrounding Florida Bay. This is Part 1 of a two part series covering out adventures from catching and cooking blue crabs in a coffee pot to camping on remote and uninhabited islands. We had a great time primitive camping on the islands and catching fish. It's hard to believe that, in a place like Florida, wild country still exists. With a little effort, you can get away from the tourists and still find solitude in Florida's Backcountry. In part two, Liz and I take the boat all the way across Florida bay to the Florida Keys.

    Not only a traditional bow hunter. But a traditional fly fisherman as well! You gotta respect that. I’m just starting out with a recurve to hunt this season. Your videos have helped so much!

    I've been hemming and hawing about getting down there for years!! I have a small canoe with a trolling motor and it looks like I'd be ok in Florida Bay. I didn't know it was so shallow. Once again you've inspired me to just go for it Mr Clay!!

    Looks like y’all are having fun! Hope you eventually get to enjoy a fish taco on the trip. I’ve been to the Keys once, they have a beauty that is pretty foreign for a native Tennessean.
    Side note: Clay, would like to invite you to the Tennessee Classic first weekend in May. I think you enjoyed it the last trip you made.

    Is it possible that the lovely young lady has a spare older sister who enjoys boating, can back up a boat trailer , tie a few of the more popular flies, rebuild some Evinrude carburetors and rustle up a decent shore lunch? Oh, it would be great if she didn't talk too much but it's not a deal breaker..

    @Clay Hayes did you borrow the boat from Austin from FinaoLive on twitch, just he has same boat or maybe hired same place lol. Fish's Florida for sharks and giant groppers mainly. Apparently since they closed the power plant fishing slowed right down. Not sure your exact position.
