Hooking Up Anglers Since 2011.
Ok, I realize the title sounds bad but read on.
Mike emailed me at the last minute asking if I was available Sunday afternoon. Ouch, that is the worst time to fish in Miami due to the heavy boat traffic and the water being pounded all day by boaters and fishermen alike but I said yes. We met up in Homestead after his meeting and we were idling out of the channel by 1:20pm. This was a fly fishing trip so we talked about it and decided to target easier species first in order to get him acclimated to strip striking and saltwater fly fishing generally as this was his first time in the salt. Incredibly, not only did we have perfect weather that kept getting better as the trip progressed but there were hardly any boats out. I took him to a wreck where he caught yellow jacks, blue runners and trigger fish on fly and practiced his double haul and strip striking. Once he had some practice and with an hour and change left in the trip we turned our attention to bone fishing. It didn't take long until he got his first take but the fish didn't get the hook. But the second fish, oh the second fish crushed the fly as we watched him wake behind the fly, create a swirl as he at the fly and made a blistering run around some obstruction in the water that almost broke us off. After a few minutes Mike's bonefish was in the landing net for a photo op and we ran back with big smiles. Wow, congrats Mike!
