Happy New Years Trevally Day - Part 5


Even though Trevally was the catch of the day, I did get a Bonefish along the way. I hooked this one between the Bluefin and the Yellow Spot.

I saw a school moving towards me and waiting for them to get closer. I cast to the biggest one in the group, but this one came racing for the fly. I actually felt this one take the fly in it's mouth - not something I get to sense (I usually see them chase and when they stop, I assume they have the fly in their mouth and then I strip set, and see if I have tension on the line).

It was nice to close out 2011 with a Bonefish and then open up 2012 with another. Although nailing the big one I was aiming for would have been even better - next time!
