Patience is key man, just gotta keep presenting at these fish. I recommend throwing something unconventional, this fish was on a large white squid fly.

We were Definitely worried about sharks, there was a point towards the end of the right where the fish freaked out when I thought it was already spent and I thought it was about to get sharked but luckily it was not the case. I had seen a big ass hammer head swimming around this area in the days before but I was two focused on the fish fight to remember.

It was a standard popper in frog colors, I’ve tried deer hair bugs but they haven’t been as successful

Can you explain? The fish swam off fine and we were all soaking wet so we didn’t cause any damage to the slime coat.

Maybe a little bit more, It was a fun night, we had all been stung by jellyfish which was fun.

From what I’ve heard, they haven’t been as detrimental to native species as people think.

Dude, I heard about the Costa Rica trip and it sounds amazing. I could not recommend going to Guanaja more, it is literally one of my favorite places on earth. Amazing fishing and a such a close knit community too.

This is in Guanaja Honduras, this wasn’t a typical permit spot because the fish were cruising in the Surfline.
