For many anglers out there, fly fishing for bonefish is at the top of the bucket list, although getting started can be a bit overwhelming at times. After all, not all of us are fortunate enough to have a bonefish flat in our backyard! However, like anything worth doing, quality instruction and practice makes all the difference, and we’re here to help break the learning curve!
We hear it all the time, ‘I’d love to go bonefishing someday, but I think I need to get better before I try that,” or “I’ve fished for bonefish a little before, but I didn’t really know what I was doing.” Well, wouldn’t it be nice if you could learn the ins and outs of flats fishing from a seasoned veteran in one of the most productive bonefishing destinations in the world?
