There's a stiff wind in your face as you squint in the sun trying to see what the guide sees. "Bonefish at 12 o'clock about 90 feet, do you see it, mon?" You don't and keep squinting, your hat pulled low to keep the sun out of your eyes. "Bonefish at 11 o'clock 70 feet out. Come on man, do you see it?" As the guide is calmly shifting the skiff into position, this time you spot the fish, "I got, it," you reply.
"OK, Mon, Bonefish 50 feet at 10 o'clock. Cast when you're ready."
Cast when you're ready. And with that you drop your fly, roll out a cast, false cast once, and then...
Welcome to the bonefish flat.

Trip Report Out Tomorrow
I've been working on this trip from Long Island, Bahamas, but I'm not quite done.
I should have it ready for you tomorrow so you can take a Friday work break to check it out.
In the meantime, enjoy this photo from flats.
The sun is going down on the flat's at Deadman's Cay.
That's a pretty impressive shot. You even managed to make that boat hull work for you.
