Week In Review

The weather conditions could have been better this past week. We had a few days with strong winds and a few other days with perfect weather. You can never tell what kind of weather we're going to have here on the island. But that doesn't stop us from catching those fish out in the water. At the end of the week, we caught a good number of Bonefish, Permit, Tarpon, and other species such as Barracuda, Jacks, and Snappers.
