Everything You Need To Know About Bonefishing Cat Island Bahamas

By Brian Butler


If you enjoy trout fishing, then you are really going to love the challenging of fishing for bones. Bonefishing Cat Island Bahamas is incredibly challenging and fun. These are among some of the smartest fish that you will ever come across, which makes the real hard to catch. Also, it isn't possible to succeed by using your old trout fishing skills. You will need the tips that follow if you want to attract, capture and haul in these amazing fish.

You may never have thought of fish as being able to smell, but bonefish are actually quite good at picking up on fragrances. Thus, if you are going out on the flats, you might want to carefully wash your hands in some of the dirt and gravel that surrounds the area. This will allow you to blend in.

You shouldn't smoke any cigarettes or cigars, use scented products or spray on cologne. You also want to wear cloths that match with the natural elements around you. Leave your bright, Hawaiian shirt at home and opt for muted, neutral tones instead.

When packing your gear, throw a quality pair of wading boots in. Right before you start heading to this location, take some time to wear these around and break them in. This is so you do not get blisters while you're actually fishing. Bonefish are very easy to frighten off and this means that you can spend tons of time simply wading and waiting.

Given that these fish have a nice metallic color, they can sometimes be difficult to spot. If you are heading out with a guide, make sure to take direction from him as best as you can. Trust in his ability to spot the fish, given that he will have far more experience.

When bonefish are feeding, this is a great time to cast. Try to drop your fly right in front of them. Once it sinks to the bottom, drag it gently across the sand using short, controlled movements. This creates the illusion of a feeding shrimp so that hungry bonefish will snap it up without suspecting that they're really biting down on your fly.

When you're on the flats, always be sure to keep loud noises to a minimum. Bonefish are very intelligent and this is a large part of the reason why they live to be so big. Whenever they suspect a problem in the area, they will immediately start swimming the other way. This is why it is important to avoid dropping things on the boat bottom or stomping around loudly while you are in the boat. Also, be cognizant of the fact that the wind is going to change directions regularly. This means that you are going to make casts according to the direction and speed of the wind. You can get the best results by standing in and away from the wind while practicing your casts at home.

Stealth is always your biggest ally when bonefishing. Be quiet and do your absolute best to blend in with the scenery. If you are able to sneak up on a fish and present your fly correctly, you will have a good chance of hauling a healthy sized bone in.
