I am interested in taking the plunge and trying to catch bone fish.

I have read Dick Browns book and he describes many places to go.

What would you more experienced bone fishermen recommend for a neophyte in this area of fishing. I know how to cast and have fished fresh water in lots of different places.

Where would you recommend going for the first trip -- in country of out of the country and do any of you have any recommendations for guides and outfitters in these locations. Part of my concern is booking with a hot shot guide and only pissing him off because I don't know what I am doing with these fish.

Thank you
