Benri and Tommy were guiding up Fresh Creek yesterday and said they got into lots of fish. It was cloudy in the morning but dead calm so they found quite a few tailing fish. Mid day the sun appeared and the sight fishing was good. Herman was in Bowen Sound and they did quite well there also. As for me I just took a short walk past the marina around the point from the old light house. I was basically just going for a walk but thought may as well take the fly rod along just in case and I’m glad I did. It was low tide and the wind was from the west so conditions there were perfect. I got into a school of about fifty and got two out of that before a big cuda came and joined the action and that was the end of that. As I was walking back along the little beach by the cannons I saw three big bones cruising close to shore. I quickly stripped some line, made the cast and the biggest one gobbled it. It was 27 inches and I figure about 7 or 8 pounds.
Going to Florida today for a week and then be back for more adventures. Got to get that peas and rice taste out of my mouth for awhile.
