Bone Fish Queen

Do you know about bonefishing? For aficionados, chasing and catching a bonefish is one of the ultimate fishing lures, pun intended. Books are written about it, stories and lies are swapped. Orvis and Cabelas make their fortunes partially off of outfitting the serious bone fisherman. Lucky for winter season Culebra, we have Chris Goldmark here, who will take you to where the elusive bonefish lurks, regardless of what you are wearing or what equipment you have. Don't have equipment? He'll supply what you need and that comes with instructions too.

Yesterday morning, our own Annie K (of Paradise Gift Shop and Ice Cream too!) tagged onto a trophy sized bonefish, and as photos don't lie, you can tell she's right up there with being darn happy about it! I think Chris was just as excited, which is about the most you could ask for in a fishing guide.

He's a beauty, Ann! Not sure how you did that without an Orvis jacket on, but you might make a nice sum selling that lucky bathing suit to some bonefish questing angler.

  1. Hee hee! I was reading this and thinking, "Perfect timing", regarding a promise I made New Years Eve to send a fly-fishing friend Chris' info. Then the bit about the swimsuit. Priceless! Of course a little tailoring might be required to accomodate his 200 lb. plus figure...
