November 18, 2018 Report (Bonefish)

Local anglers David and Gerston wanted to check out the bay and learn a bit on how to fish it while focusing on snook, bonefish and permit. We got an early start out of Homestead and fished the creeks for snook but with a high tide, the snook were back deep into the mangroves and we didn't land any but caught jacks, ladyfish, snappers and barracudas on lures. With good visibility we hit the flats and things were slower than I had expected. However, I spotted a nice bonefish and the guys took a shot but missed. They reeled it up and when they went to recast, cloud cover moved in and I had them take another shot into the area and let the shrimp sit. Suddenly, Davids rod doubles over and his is on! After a nice fight David landed his first bonefish. The rest of the trip we focused on getting Gerston his but the conditions got worst and the fishing remained slow so we were done and headed in.
