The first mangrove islands of the

The first fishing trip just 40
minutes after arrival

Playing my first ever bonefish, hooked behind me almost in the
mangroves
Landed, photographed and
released again!
Our first Caribbean sunset,
very short but powerful
A warm welcome when returning from fishing
The next day a new location and trying a heavier rod
Our guide was right ....wow.... another
fish that I never caught before
Another location for bonefish
in shelter, perfect for Ina to give it a try
This time Ina hooked her first
ever bonefish
What a nice size for her first
ever bonefish and what a fight............

Hunting for the big one!
After nearly 2 hours in awe drive we arrived at wreck Island by our
small but very safe skiffs
Must be indeed a very
dangerous place with all the different ship wrecks around
One of the boats for divers at
JDR
No problem to catch
a horse eye jack while wading and actually fishing for bonefish
A good fight with light
bonefish tackle
Finally
One of my most favourite
fish......... took over 200 meters of backing
One of my strongest fights in
JDR
