May 12, 2015 Report (Bonefish)

Local resident and regular client Steve hopped aboard for round 2 of tarpon fishing. Although there were fish around they weren't feeding so off to the flats we went trying to hide from the 20MPH winds with fly rod in hand. I pulled us in to the leeward side of a key that I like for bonefish and sure enough, here they came! School after school came through some of the schools were our average fish in the 8lb range with some a bit bigger but there were big schools of small fish in the 1-2lb range. I can't remember the last time I saw so many little bones. What a great sign for our fishery! On one of the schools Steve made a cast into the middle of them and in short order he was hooked up. Releasing the little bonefish as changed strategy and targeted some mutton snapper for dinner and mission was accomplished, bonefish on fly and fresh mutton snapper fillets for the table. Can't beat that!
