Editing Room

Mr. Producerman cleaned out the hard drive and found some extra footage that didn't make it on TV the first time because we had too much. He likes to call this episode "Bits and Bites." For example, y'all didn't get to see what all happened on Day 3 of our trip to the Dry Tortugas, when it was finally grouper season! Some more footage you get to see this time is from a day I was doing R and D on the new Gen 2 rods over in Canaveral. I was on a "solo mission," but I decided to bring along my cameraman, 'cause he likes to fish too. I hooked into a nice 15 lb tripletail on the 7'2" . . . can't wait to show y'all this fight. There's still a few more fish fights you didn't get to see so check out this week’s episode “Bits and Bites” – Friday at 10:30 a.m. ET on Fox Sun Sports (replays Sunday 9:30 p.m. ET / Tuesday 6:00 a.m. ET).

If you're near the Tampa Bay area this weekend, stop in to the Tampa Boat Show at the Convention Center and say hello to the folks over at the Central Marine Service & Boat Sales booth. They're the Skeeter Boats dealer in town and will be showing off the new 2014 line of XS bay boats and giving demo rides in the new SX240.

I'm heading to Louisiana to prefish a tournament, then I think I'm going to get lost in the woods for awhile and do some hunting. Mr. Producerman and Trice are heading to the Blue Ridge mountains to do some hiking and recharge because we've got a busy and exciting 2014 season coming up and we'll be back on the water shooting shows before we know it!

Tune in to AF this weekend. If you miss it on TV, you can always stay connected in the Mogan Lounge, on Facebook, YouTube and Instagram. If you don't have cable, you need to get Roku . . . AF is now in the US, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland and the rest of the Roku universe too!

Until next week . . . tight lines,
