That is the sort of friend to have….Does he have a colleague who does the same in Andros in the Bahamas - I'm fly fishing there in 3 months - primarily for these...
Oh man, catching bone fish in the Bahamas sounds like a blast.
I wish he had colleagues doing work in areas like that, but the department he works with focuses mostly on Michigan and the surrounding states.
And great pics Giles. I'm gonna have to go through and see if I can remember where all my diving pictures are stored.

Thought this thread needed some love and attention…
This is what happens when a shark intervenes when playing a Bonefishh..
OK. So let's see what we have here….
Phillip picks us up at 07:45 sharp....
bens first bonefish…
Me playing a shark….
Ben playing same shark…
Said Shark…
Ben fights Barracuda
..The 'Cuda in question…
Walking the flats…
Nurse Sharks….See later Vid...
Mein Gott, I hope we can dodge that weather coming in…We didn't and got soaked through...
Very wet IHV-03 after we made it back to the dock…
It's nurse shark mating season here and we came across this "mating ball" of 4 male and 1 female (lucky girl)….
Today, I had my largest Bonefish of the trip thus far. It was my favourite style of fishing, super skinny water, large single fish cruising and feeding. Casting has to be pin point accurate without the line or the fly disturbing the surface when it lands. Any false move and the Bonefish are over the horizon…...Then you have to chase the fish to ensure that the line does not get abraded on the mangrove shoots....I had the camera in my pocket for the first part of this encounter, so join me half way through....
This is a big one, better give chase....
Nearly done…
Yep, that was worth running around for…
Holy ghost…
Bye bye….

I will be doing a two day fly fishing trip with my mom when I am back in California next week. No clue where or when. It is all up to her as she is the pro, not me. I will be taking a shit ton of images as she is not allowing me to bring my phone, computer or any other electronics besides a camera…

If this does not sound too perverted (well, I know it does - in SOOOOO many ways), I want your mothers babies…...

What sort of fishing, Lando?
Fuck if I know. With a rod, water, and fish. Honestly, I have been fly fishing maybe once or twice in my life and know shit all about it. It is definitely a activity which intrigues me and that I have been meaning to get acquainted with. My mom is SERIOUS about it though and I am sure I will learn a lot. As soon as I have some more details I will post them up in here.

yea, hunting for sport doesnt really jive well with me. Sustenance is one thing, but just to mount a stuffed head on a wall is just sad.

It's a super complex question. I mainly fish for sport and i put the fish back. Sometimes though (like tomorrow morning I hope) I go Sea Bass fishing and anything of a half decent size will be on the table super-quick….
I dont see anything wrong with that. You do your part. Its the assholes who wear polarized glasses and snag/ intentionally foul hook salmon that bothers me. Im a catch and release guy myself, but Ill eat a trout every now and then that I caught. I think humans fucked up way long ago, we no longer have the option to think any other way other than sustainability. Anyone who doesnt is just a jerk.
But, back to Russell, I cant recall,100% but did I see elephant hide and rhino hide as options to have boots made up? Thats seems odd, considering their dwindling numbers….
