Tyler0420 Posted January 21, 2023 Report Posted January 21, 2023 Nice flys. Â Are you fishing bone fish? Quote
smerchly Posted January 21, 2023 Report Posted January 21, 2023 You have quite the arsenal of 'weapons' , hope you have lots of success As Tyler said ....bone fish /fly rod ? Quote
Dave Posted February 3, 2023 Author Report Posted February 3, 2023 Sorry for the none reply but I was getting ready to head out.Not the greatest photos because its hard to do selfies on a saltwater flats there's no place to safely drop your gear..Three diy outings and once with guide, 7 landed and one break off.Doesn't sound like much but wind was screaming and the diy trips are short due to ocean side tide..Plus a Cuban cold front one trip which made them fussier than they usually are, on top of the wind it was my only no hitter...Did land my personnel best Bonefish which blew off 100ft. of fly line and half my 100 yds. of backing...Guide assisted I landed 3 and snapped one off.That was lagoon fishing to super spooky fish..Spooky fish is an understatement when it comes to Bones.I was talking to loudly and a pod of tailing fish pulled off the shore😆..Damn I'm love those fish especially the big ones..

Bass-turd Posted February 3, 2023 Report Posted February 3, 2023 Awesome stuff, catching a bonefish on the flats is on my bucket list for sure  Are all your flies tied yourself? When you catch a fish on your own lure you made yourself it’s a totally different kind of satisfaction, the best!! Quote
Dave Posted February 3, 2023 Author Report Posted February 3, 2023 Yes Bass-turd all tied by myself.I'm stocked like a fly shop over here with more materials than I probably need in a lifetime.Everything from trout Euro nymphs to saltwater.. I've always had great satisfaction from being a start to finish fly fisherman..I try to avoid the fancy flys and concentrate mostly on guide flys.Still, its a time consuming hobby. Quote
Tyler0420 Posted February 3, 2023 Report Posted February 3, 2023 Awesome pics. Looks like you had fun. Sight fishing bones are definitely on the bucket list. Quote
Bubba14 Posted February 3, 2023 Report Posted February 3, 2023 Looks like a great time Dave! Where in Cuba were you? Quote
Bubba14 Posted February 3, 2023 Report Posted February 3, 2023 Which resort? My wife and I were at Memories Flamenco Beach in December. I went for walks on the beach daily and saw pods of bonefish each time, some numbering at least 20. Only saw a couple of people fishing, none having any luck. Quote
