Vanatge in Louisiana
Posted on 10. Mar, 2010 by Graham in Travel
After taking delivery of his Vantage, Captain Greg Dini invited Marc and Graham to come out and fish and film Louisiana for it’s monster redfish and black drum. With some of the worst and varied weather possible, thanks to the Vantage and it’s amazing dry ride and fishabilty, big fish where still caught on both fly and spin. Day one started out with chilly temperatures and a dense fog bank that moved in over the lower Mississippi peninsula and visibility stayed at or under a boats length the entire day. Day two was a wash as it down poured the entire day and the guys got a tour of New Orleans instead. Day three the sun shined but with cloudy water from the previous days floods and winds howled with constants speeds of 25-30 knots. Day four was the worst as the temperature was in the 40′s, the wind was pushing in the 25 knot range, and it was raining the entire day. With all of this crumby weather, each day there were big fish brought to the boat. Check out the Vantage, and Captain Greg Dini’s website for more along with the pictures and video below.
It’s Coming…

It is getting to be that time of year again. The one where the dust from the winter storage of 12 weights begins to be wiped off, the time when when reservations are being prepped for places like Boca, Flamingo, and Islamorada, and the season where each warmer day than the last burns a fixed image into the Tarpon hunters tunnel vision of memories past. Oh wait… it is here already!
