Nice job getting the bone after 5yrs trying. That's gotta feel good. Burger looks good too.

I comend you pacience and congratulations. Bones on the fly if an achievment any where but here in so cal you might be the first. I've caught em on plastics and bait be don't think I could wait 5 years. Have you caught bonefish befor? That first 5 seconds after hookset is like nothing else we have around here. You rock. Mike

makobob · 07-29-2013, 06:46 PM

That's a lot of work for one fish, but you will cherish the memory forever. Congrats!

Yeah it does. I would have thought he still would have given you some good runs. I got some big stripers out in Maine last summer on a 9wt, short runs, but got the blood flowing none the less. Hard to beat game fish on the fly.

I have never really targeted bones, but as a kid they were one of the fish I always dreamed of.

Oh, and happy B-day!

LDO10 · 07-29-2013, 08:42 PM

Congrats on the bonie. I'm lucky to have caught some when I first got the PA on plastics. A blast.

JeffB · 07-29-2013, 10:17 PM

Very cool!

todd one · 07-29-2013, 11:51 PM

Nice job! You're still fishing the fly rods, huh. I remember you surprised me with the legal Halibut on the fly.

Aaron&Julie · 07-30-2013, 02:29 AM

Congrats on the 1st on the fly.

blitzburgh · 07-30-2013, 07:44 AM

Nice Dude!

walrus · 07-30-2013, 08:36 AM

Congrats. 5 years is a lot of effort.

Was it the fly presentation or the the secret burger scent?
