Sorry for the lack of updates.  Here is a quick story with pics from our fishnut Jon Miller.




So after fishing the Blue River, the Colorado and Clear Creek all winter it was time to warm up.  Me and the wife headed to Cozumel Mexico for a few days, and I booked a trip online to try my luck at some bone fishing.  We met our guide at a church in town.  He was in a cab, and the driver told us to follow them so away we went.  A good half hour later down a rough dirt road we arrived to a beat up dock with a bunch of old boats.  The guide picked us up in his old boat and away we went on a 30 min ride.   This time me and the wife were wondering what the hell is going on.  Not many words were said yet and so after we arrived in the flats it was clear the guide spoke very little english,  and we spoke very little Spanish.  Things were not going well in the flats with the communication problem and the wife's sandals, and I was about to motion for him to take us back very frustrated.  He motioned for us to get back in the boat and poled us into a lagoon.  Motioned for me to get out and said practice.  I said yes Mr Meagi.  So I casted away clueless for awhile,  then bam! The first bone was on. I did as I've seen on TV cause i did not understand a word Mr Meagi was saying.  Fifteen min later, after fighting and running, my first bone fish ever was in my hands.  I kept practicing and it paid off.  Ended the day with 17 fish caught and 14 were bones from 12 to 18 inches.  I had that old man calling me good luck.  I think I exceeded my teachers expectations, as I had his head shaking a lot.  The wife loved the lagoon and the warm sun.  It turned out to be a day we will never forget.  We look forward to going back one day and I'll be sure to have Mr Meagi take me to another of his pristine spots.

Thanks Jon & Jen!!
