This month is flying by! The fly boxes are filling with puffs and shrimpfs and crazy charlies and gotchas and clousers… the bags are already packed with my fishing clothes… the tides have been checked and rechecked… the travel arrangements have been rechecked 36 times.
And yet my trip is still three weeks away. Three weeks from today, I will be shin deep in a Carribean flat searching for bonefish treasure!!!
AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRGgggggggggggg!!!
Any last minute “hot” patterns?
Any last minute travel tips or plans?
Eleuthera awaits on the 23rd arrive at 2:40 pm, I hope my pink puffs and crabs work. I’ll be walking the beaches from sunrise to sunset. Stopping for a Kalik and some nourishments on the way.
Acuna, the velcro crab is an easy tie, might want to put a weed gaurd on a few in green for the turtle grass
I’ll be at Unique village

I look into… my fly box, and think about all the elements I should consider in choosing the perfect fly: water temperature, what stage of development the bugs are in, what the fish are eating right now. Then I remember what a guide told me: ‘Ninety percent of what a trout eats is brown and fuzzy and about five-eighths of an inch long.’ - Allison Moir.
I wonder if he ever fished Saltwater
