A picture

A picture says more than ......................
Six weeks ago I got a mail from Thibaut, a Frenchman who lives in Canada.
In the mail he told me that he is an very experienced fly fisherman and also a photographer for fishing magazines .
To make a short story long; I invited him to go and fish with me and maybe he could make some pictures for my site.
So when we went fishing last week, he told me that he caught a nice bonefish at Malmok, but didn’t take a picture.
The morning we left, the weather was really bad and we couldn't find many bone's .
Late in the morning I did hook one, but because I fished with 8 pound test (wanted to show off ) I lost the fish!
A little disappointed we went home and decided that we had to go one more time.
With some help from my colleagues at work I was able to change my working schedule to fish one more day.
Again the weather wasn't helping and after trying almost every spot on the island we went and found a place with a beautiful Grass flat.
So I can tell you what happened or I can just show you!











Congratulations and welcome to my Club!
Thibaut has his own website on fishing.

After the rain comes...........

After the rain comes ..........
It has been a few weeks since my last update.
The reason for this was that the fishing was not so good and my busy schedule.
The weather was really bad lots of rain and cloudy day's witch make believe that there could be a connection?
Am I wrong to think that bonefish might not like to come on the flats when the weather is bad?
Maybe they use the sunlight to find food on the bottom just like we do to spot them?
If you have any answers on these questions please let me know!
So after a few bad day's of fishing the sun came out!
The last few day's the weather was getting better and the fish start coming back!
Yesterday I went fishing with John and his friend .
The morning started slow (cloudy sky) and we only saw 2/3 bones but could not get close to them.
After a few hours we decided to chance location and went to a turtle grass flat.
the same cloud followed us an we went to another place more north where the sun was shining.
In the late morning we went to a small flat as a last chance and we couldn't see any bone's,
so we decided to do a little blind casting with different flies and ..........................bang !
There it was a beautiful bonefish caught on an big clouser!
John was smiling and we had a few more bites (lost them) .
The whole thing makes me think about the weather conection.
The raining season should be over now and I am looking forward to the better fishing day's!
Greetings and tight lines .
