Bonefish On, Bonefish Off: Fly Fishing The Florida Keys!
Posted by greg on January 13, 2005
After several hours of Admin., Tom and I headed for Torch Key. We only had about 3 hours left of the day to fish and wanted something to show for our first day. The fly shop no longer sold Crazy Charlies, my favorite fly but offered us something very similiar, called a "Gotcha".
Tom had the first Bone on but he didn't let go of the line in time and was snaped off. I had a small Bone on and lost him in 3 seconds. Then we turned our attention to the mangrove snappers that seemed to like our floating crabs, brown or green. We caught quite a few of these delicious fish along with Barracuda, lady fish and a couple of ugly fish that I don't know the name of. Tom saw a shark fining not to far from us, he was more interested in the fish schooling in a depression on the bottom. Today is a new day and we are headed for a
new spot with less wind.
