Week In Review
A cold front bringing clouds and winds early in the week made sight casting more difficult than the previous weeks. It was our pleasure to host the first Orvis Bonefish Bonanza of the year.
What Guests were Catching
- Bonefish
Bonefish were caught in shallow water when conditions were good for sight casting, and the deeper bite in 2-4 feet of water kept the action going when it was cloudy or windy.
- Permit
Mark, Doug, and Nick all took home angler award pins for landing the always tricky to catch permit on a fly rod.
- Tarpon
Tarpon were tougher to catch this week due to wind and clouds, but several anglers got the opportunity to hook and jump the Silver King.
- Other Species
Snapper, jacks, barracuda, Spanish mackerel.
- Bone Fish Flies
- Christmas Island Specials in orange, pearl and pink sizes 6 & 8
- Permit Flies
- Spawning Shrimp, Tan Squimp in size 6 & 8, Mantis Shrimp
- Tarpon Flies
- Chartreuse, white, red and black, all black and black and purple toads and bunnies continue to work well.
