Matt Ward ​On Thursday, Mark Ward, Alex Wyckoff, and myself took advantage of a day off from running charters to do more fishing.

Chris Colbert I had just got out of school and was one day away from turning 15 when I got to go fishing with Ryan Collins. Ryan is my cousin, and for years we’ve been sharing ideas about where to fish and what to use, but we had never gone fishing together. I was fine with …
