Sweet Waters Adventure is a destination travel company specializing in sporting and lifestyle adventures. At SWA, nothing is canned.
We view lodges through a different prism than most travel companies; we see them as an extension of our business and forge a harmonious relationship between them and you. Our mutual success, and your enjoyment are tied together in a collaborative knot. Our forte involves very selective genres of travel including: fly-fishing, wing shooting, and family adventure travel throughout the world. When yo
u explore our website, you will notice that we do not represent hundreds of lodges. Personalized, hands-on service requires intimate familiarity with the lodge and the customer, which becomes our most important mission. For this same reason, we are able to create lasting relationships with our customers. We want you to become a member of our family and that can only be achieved by the satisfaction you derive from our custom excursions. We do not just go through the motions – we go over every detail and make recommendations to ensure each trip will become the adventure of your lifetime.

Our only native stork in North America, the Wood Stork is a large, heavy-billed wading bird that is found throughout swamps and wetlands across the Southeastern United States.
Although this stork doesn't bring babies, it still has a very crucial role in the Everglades. The Wood Stork serves as an indicator species for the health of the Everglades ecosystem.
Indicator species serve as excellent messengers of the past, present, and future because their specific habitat requirements are so closely associated with one particular environment.
The quality and quantity of the required environment directly determines the well-being and the number of that species. Since it is much easier to count and record the biology of one or more indicator species than it is to measure the more complex workings of an entire ecosystem, close monitoring of carefully selected species provides important information about the health of the entire system.
Can you think of any other indicator species in the Everglades?

The Fishing Nut's second opus is already available for pre-order. We can read all about him and his colorful set of fishing buddies being outwitted by salmon, steelhead and permit all over the globe.
The full title of the tome is:
A Tale of Three Fish: A Lifetime of Adventures Chasing Atlantic Salmon, Steelhead, and Permit
The first book, detailing his misadventures as a young lad on and near the water is also still going strong. A number of folks who've read it have likened my fishing nut to Tom Sawyer; one or two came up with a mix of Tom Sawyer and Lord of the Flies. All I can say is, it explains a lot. 😜 Mostly, though, I think folks are enjoying it so much because it brings back many fond memories of their own. 🏄🐟🦩🌴

The Fishing Nut was interviewed for Lunker Dog's Reel Guy podcast, where he tells it straight about fishing, growing up in South Florida, conservation, and married life as a fishing nut. According to Lunker Dog, "Jim steps up his game and gives us almost two hours of more Reel Guy stuff than we could get through. A true pleasure to have in the studio."
That so? What I heard were some diggs on his perfect, never quirky, always patiently loving wife. You decide.

The 'Fishing Nut' and your intrepid host for many a SWA trip finally published his first opus relating much of his ill-spent youth through his adventures fishing up and down South Florida's coasts and in the Glades. His Sportsman's Widow (Sandra Stenson ) put her two cents in behind the scenes, of course. If you miss the Contemporary Sportsman with vignettes from the Widow and Nut, you're gonna love that book.

Jim Stenson’s new book “South Florida’s Fishing Paradise: Early Adventures from Lake Worth to Florida Bay to Boca Grande and Back” captures the Nirvana of light tackle fishing in its prime (the late 60s and 70s). The tales stretch from Palm Beach to the Florida Keys, from the Everglades to the Ten Thousand Islands as author Jim Stenson chronicles his fishing adventures on rivers like the Manatee, the Myakka, the Peace, and the Caloosahatchee, as well as on beaches, spillways and dams.
As on any fishing adventure, you will meet colorful characters like Fat Wally, Dick Clevenger, and Frank the Net (as rugged and eclectic as his ‘66 International Harvester) who each took the author under his wings in often somewhat eccentric ways. Others, like Dennis Hart, Walt Winton, Mark Riehmann, Pete Stroble, Dick Clevenger and Ray Moss (a.k.a. Fertile Myrtle) leave their mark and become the author’s life-long friends.
You can purchase “South Florida’s Fishing Paradise: Early Adventures from Florida Bay to Boca Grande and Back” at Amazon, Books A Million, Barnes and Noble, or at your favorite bookstore.

A hosted trip is when Sweet Waters Adventure creates a custom trip and then "hosts" that trip. We choose the fishery, the lodge and the time of year.
