Hey Steve,

If you happen to check in here and have a half day to kill, take your wife to Stingray City. What a hoot.

Steve,
Can't wait to hear how your trip went. Stay safe and have a great time!

Did pretty good today. Things started slowly. I began at a spot that I had found bonefish on Friday during a (non-fishing) scouting trip. Saw only one tailer, then moved on. When I got to my next spot, the sun was behind clouds and it was tought to see. I outwaited the clouds. When the sun came out, I waded out and just stood at the edge of a sand hole. I looked down and saw two bonefish near. I flicked the fly out, but neither saw it. Cast again, hookup! This was a small bone, about 2 pounds.
After a quick photo and release, I was ready to go again. Saw another fish, made a cast and hooked up. This fish was a little bigger, about 4 pounds. Good fight and long run.
Saw a couple of schools of fish, but couldn't get close enough. Sun went behind the clouds for an hour. When the clouds moved, the tide was too high. I was fishing on the northeast side of the island.
Tomorrow, I plan to hit Palmetto Point. Might try small tarpon on the northwest side.
Photos when I return.
