Bonefish

Bonefish, tarpon and permit are sport fish that we catch on the flats of Florida and the islands. Our custom built Hell’s Bay Marquesas flats boat; “Little 7” is about the best you can get for fishing for these fish. Typically we fly fish for the flats fish but conventional spinning light tackle gear is also possible. Flats fishing is like hunting and fishing combined and polling across the skinny watch sight fishing for these hard and wary fighters is some of the best excitement in light tackle fishing.
