Yes, you were supposed to get this e-Newsletter last Friday, but BoldWater Andrea (our BoldWater Journal and e-Newsletter Editor) was kickn' back in the Keys for some well needed F&R. (fishing and relaxation!!) So better late than never, we hope you enjoy this latest BoldWater e-newsletter.

Captain Joe Rodriguez sent us a pic of this massive tarpon caught on fly by client Kirk Holland about a week ago in Florida Bay. This tarpon was estimated to be 175-185lbs. If you want to fish with one of South Florida’s finest inshore guides, give Capt. Joe Rodriguez a call and tell him BoldWater sent you! 305-910-6309

Spring and summertime in Florida is tournament season. Here are a few samples of our most recent tournament shirt designs.

Are you ready to ruuumble?
Here is a tournament shirt design we did for the Indian River Area Fishing Report's Bluewater Brawl. This competitive tournament is one of the stops in the H.O.T. Fishing Circuit and is coming up July 16, 2005 out of Sebastian Inlet. For more information, visit their website at www.irafr.com.

H.O.T. Fishing Circuit

The H.O.T. Fishing Circuit's first official tournament in the 24 tournament series, The Fishin' Cove Offshore Shootout, took place last weekend out of Ponce Inlet. Up from about 50 boats last year, this year's 74 boats battled it out in partly cloudy conditions and strong winds.

Results and pictures are posted on the official H.O.T. Fishing Circuit website at www.hotfishingcircuit.com.

Jeff Miller of Team Black Hawk took First Place Wahoo and Top Boat with a 57.9# Wahoo caught aboard a 25 foot Black Hawk Black Fin.

Be sure to join Florida's hottest tournament trail and get yourself in the running to win big cash and prizes. The top four tournament scores count so everyone has a chance!
