I read a lot of books, articles and webpages about permit and bonefish before leaving for my first trip to the tropics.
One thing I heard from many different sources is that once you start to fish for permit it will consume you. I tried to use the same dumb reasoning that pot heads use about…

i try to spin at least a few bugs every day. but once in awhile i’ll go on a more intense bender. wake up and sit down with blurry eyes and terrible breath to tie at least a few before i have coffee. then it’s make a pot and get back to it. the materials pile up all over the desk and i’m…

anyone with, say, $75k sitting around that would like to bid on this beast for me go for it. it would make a great 30th birthday and christmas gift.

for some reason, lately i’ve been thinking a lot about going fishing for bonefish. there is something really amazing about fishing for these guys. i think 90% of it has to do with the locations and the flats themselves, as i had just as much fun fishing for triggerfish, sharks, barracuda, on the flats, as i did for bonefish. but for some reason the bonefish are stuck in my mind.
i’ve been checking out potential places for a baby-moon and of course they all revolve around the potential opportunity to wade flats and fish for bones during “nap time”. i’m probably kidding myself that there will be such a time, but i’ll keep day dreaming.
in my web-surfing i’ve been checking out the destinations that flycastaway guides to. the two that look incredible (and incredibly expensive) are st. brandon’s atoll and farquhar atoll. i clearly need to figure out my web 2.0 business that will allow me the fund these two trips.
or i just need to befriend this anderson family and figure out how to piggyback on their trips (video below).
enjoy
