June 17, 2006 By: Marshall Cutchin

Whether it’s Mexico’s Yucatan, the Bahamas, the Seychelles, Christmas Island or Los Roques, traveling anglers enjoy an embarrassment of riches compared to what was available just 40 years ago. As a class of sight-castable and catchable gamefish, bonefish have helped define destination fishing. “The proliferation of specialized lodges and the availability of excellent equipment combined with increased focus on conservation and the expansion of regular jet service put the bonefish belt within reach of thousands of travelers armed with fly rods, sunscreens, and polarized glasses.” Joe Doggett in The Houston Chronicle.
