I was looking forward to fishing with long time client Maria and throwing a fly with her.  We started off focusing on bonefish and 5 minutes into the trip she hooked and landed a tiny 10" bonefish, so cute and a great sign of the health of our bonefishery.  OK, cool start but let's get an upgrade.  Ha, we had to work for that upgrade!  Finally the tide turned and under perfect conditions I set up on a spot I like but hadn't fished in a while.  I had a good feeling about this spot and it lived up to its history.  School after school of bonefish started to move through and Maria kept getting solid shots.  After too many shots and casts that should've rewarded her, it finally happened.  

A school cam in perfectly at her 11 o'clock. I point them out and tell her to cast at 11 o'clock.  She makes a good cast but it was off by a few feet and by this time the school pushes towards her 12 o'clock and moving straight at us.  I tell her to pick up the fly and just roll cast at her 12.  She did just that and dropped that fly right in the face of one of the fish in the school.  I thought they would blow out but they didn't and as Maria stripped the fly we watched the big bonefish chase down the fly and eat it a few feet from the boat!  What???!!!  Awesome!  Oh, and the big bone starts to smoke the fly reel and got deep into the backing twice causing me to have to pole after it to recover some line.  After an awesome fight Maria released her biggest bonefish to date, a solid 10-11 pounder.  Wow!   The rest of the trip was pretty and slow but the fish of the day was taken care of and anything after would have been icing.
