Lefty’s First Bonefish

In a piece recalling the great depression and being invited to Cuba during the revolution of 1959 to write about the fishing opportunities, Lefty Kreh tells the story of catching his first bonefish on the fly. And at 10 pounds, he says, strong and fast, “It was at that moment when bonefish forever became my favorite fly-rod target.” Via Fly Fishing in Salt Waters.
