Yesterday David and I met up at the marina for the first of our two day trip. But, it was pouring rain and the wind was howling at about 25 MPH, pretty tough for fly fishing. We called it a day and met up today instead with his buddy Clay. The forecast was way off again today for, for the better with cloudy skies but no wind and no rain. We focused the first half of the trip on bonefish where the guys each caught their first bonefish on fly, yes! Using a heavy shrimp pattern and a slower strip than normal in order to keep the fly deep in the unusually high tide we scored and missed a few more bites but the trick worked and the guy's patience paid off as we had two bonefish in the boat before the first hour of the trip. Once that slowed down we made a long run to cast net live pilchards and then live chum a wreck. This was fun and a great way to wrap up an already great trip. The first couple handfuls of live pilchards produced constant explosions and the guys wore themselves out catching yellow jacks on fly with awesome surface explosions on baitfish patterns and gurglers. I love it and the guys did too!
