I fished the middle Caicos for a week in 1988 for bonefish, and if its anything like that nowadays that is one seriously fun thing to do. Not to mention the many cuda that come sniffin around close enough to see their eyeballs. For people who's never seen one, a bone fish is like a streamlined whitefish in 2-5+ pound range, almost invisible due to its platinum-translucent colour and with teeth replaced by top and bottom yaws of bone used to crush crabs they stir up from bottom. As PeterInBrat know, to hook one is like tying your line to a bullet. How a fish that size can take the line off your reel and fight like that is simply hard to believe.
Thanks guys for links and pix!!
Bonefish are also all around the FL Keys...
