Where in Mexico are good spots for a free-lance ( no lodge or

If you don't have a good boat and knowledge of the area your options
are extremely limited. Also, the local guides are not pleased about
Anglos poaching on "their" water without paying a guide fee. I
wouldn't bother to try. Sad to say, but quality flats fishing is a
rich man's sport.

The best place I've seen for DIY bonefishing is Eluthera Island in the
Bahamas. You can rent a car pretty cheaply and access lots of places.
Try the Gummy Minnow in Governor's Harbour.

Thanks for the info, rw

I need to find ways to occupy my retired guy time more fully, in
Winter. Sadly, a couple months a year in New Zealand or Patagonia
ain't for we poor folk neither.

BTW, I think I saw you going the other direction on the road near
Picabo in Sept ... I thought for a while "Where do I know that guy
from?" and eventually decided maybe it was you and I recognized you
from pictures. If so, my closest thing yet to a real world ROFF
