The first time Ralph fished with me earlier this year we didn't catch bonefish on fly but caught a nice shark instead. Today he brought his son Alex and the goal was to get him on his first bonefish on fly while Ralph would fish spin gear. Same as yesterday, not long into the trip Alex got his first take from a bonefish but the bone didn't stick. No worries, a bit later he was on and this time the end result was what we all wanted, Alex's first bonefish on fly. Along the way Ralph had quite a few bonefish eats but they weren't playing nice and wouldn't get hooked. Meanwhile Alex had another fish on and it came off right at the side of the boat and I seem to have taken in harder than he did as I held my head in my hands and said "Oh no, what the hell?" and his response was "No worries, I'm having a great time, this is fun." Thank you Alex! Not long after Ralph was on and landed a nice bonefish to brake the spin curse of the morning. The run back to the marina was nice with some fish under our belts and smiles all over.
