Emerging From the Cold-Tampa Fish Kills

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

The last 3 weeks here in what we believed to be “South Central Florida”, felt more like the bunghole of the Arctic. The temperatures dipped way down into the 20’s and it wreaked havoc on the local marine life, not to mention made wearing flip flops pretty fucking lame. December started off really, really, nice Aaron Seymour (AKA-Yosemity Seems, Dr. Seymour, Michigan Bitch) arrived on Dec 14th and we crushed fish all week in mild 80 degree temperatures. For Mid December…this is AWESOME!

And then comes January and hell literally freezes over. Temps drop 50-60 degrees and we go into a catatonic state of fishing hibernation. Let me give you a taste of this pain…I am now paying a heating bill, and there are palm trees in my backyard…REALLY? REALLY? My pool has a thin coating of ice on it but I’m still paying the pool guys to come skim out the dead frozen frogs. My avocado tree in the backyard is totally dead and I’m fresh out of guacamole for my fresh fish tacos. Those annoying Quaker parrots are gone, the lizards have completely disappeared and I haven’t seen a roach in weeks .

The biggest tragedy is the latest fish kill throughout Tampa bay. The good news is those annoying fucking catfish are littering the shores, but the cold snap devastated the Snook population.

The good news is the Florida Division of Wildlife has closed the Snook harvesting season until September. Anyway, the weather is on a warming trend and I am all out of time for this post. Adios Amigos!

P.S.-Butters, Tits, Gracie, Seems, and all the other Hooligans-I really miss you guys. Even your lame jokes, bad fishing skills, and extremely small appendages.

Primalfly-Making 2nd Headquarters in Tampa,Florida

Friday, October 2nd, 2009

Its time to get salty bitches! Snyder and Erin are moving to Tampa to continue the mission and expand the Primalfly reach to southern gulf coast waters. Rumor has it Teasdale will also be tainting the waters around the gulf coast with a slew of new gear to promote a mission of his own.

We will be investing in all new saltwater shit and also looking forward to stompin some Grassie’s, peacocks, tilapia, and largemouth at the nearest golf courses.

So, this move is going to be a bitch like any, most of our shit is packed and we will hit the road on OCT 16th. Part of our journey will have us stopping in Austin, and The Big Easy to ingest some of the local culture and wet a line when the time permits. The paperwork has already been started on our concealed weapons permits and we have been out shoppin for the right gator piece. I was thinking a nice light 380, Teasdale disagreed and said-”Go Bigger”

We would like to take this opportunity to reach out to other salty fly fishing bitches in the Tampa area in hopes to expand our network of sin and debauchery. Shoot us an email and we can start planning a mission of saltwater bliss!

We will miss all the peeps in D Town and all the unrelenting smelly of the Platte River. Not too fear young lads, the Primalfly compound 1 still exists and we will surely be back to continue our plight. Butters and Gracie will be holding down the fort while we bask in the warm winter Florida sun admidst turquoise blue waters and miles of gingerly salt flats. Ahhhh….So nice.
