NEWS FLASH FROM THE VINEYARD…

Two Atlantic bonito have been landed by different captains in the last couple of days. Both were in near shore waters off the eastern tip of the island. What that generally means is we can expect more consistent action in the next week or so. When they hit the inshore waters then the real games will begin. Bonito, or bones as we call them, become the sought after species for most all fly rodders and light tackle enthusiasts. Who knows; maybe in next weeks report we’ll have some photos of happy anglers with their bones in hand. Oh, and might I mention that I’m going to use specially rigged Arkansas Shiners for the bonito and albies as well.

Tight Lines and Singing Drags,
Captain Phil Cronin

Nice to be wrong! Fiqured they would not show. Past few years have been awful, When i first started fishing for the funny stuff I got spoiled, Even had a few slams ( Bonita,Albie, Spanish Mack) day's from shore. Best day on the Boat was like 15-20 Bonita on the fly. Then 1,2s and zero's like last year.

Some friends of mine have a house in OCT for 5 days ($50pp) that I bailed on, Fiqures.

Looks like a couple of road trips are in order, will be looking at how to mount Yaks to the pilot house. Stay at OB Marina one night fish State Beach Chappy Hedge Fence etc , Maybe camp on Nomans another night hit Gay Head\Menemsha , there was an article about Yaking there in on the water last year. Just need to watch for unexploded ordance.
I can Accomadate 4 People , 2 Yaks.
