First Bonefish Of March


Angler Kevin Ludwig of Massachusetts landed this small but very welcome bonefish while we were poling the shoreline flats of Ensenada Honda this morning. The sky was overcast and the wind was steady at fifteen knots. This fish was feeding in very shallow water and hit a Puglisi crab pattern as it was leaving the flat.


We're currently in a falling tide pattern this week and that makes bonefishing very difficult. Quick and accurate casts are the only way you're going to catch one fish these fish down here right now. Big single bones are never an easy target, and that's what we primarily have on Vieques. Fortunately Kevin was up to the task and was on target when it counted. Practice your casting before you get down here and you won't be disappointed.
