A solid number of GT’s were decieved throughout the week with three caught by honeymoon couple John and Bessie Hudgens on the last day of their trip making for amazing momories. Like the GT’s the rest of the species were out in great force allowing for Tappani Henriksson to achieve something that he will no forget for many years to come. A“Trigger & Flats Slam Combo’”consisting of a bonefish and GT, two moustache triggerfish, one yellowmargin triggerfish and a Picasso triggerfish. Another high point and congratualtions goes out to John Dale who managed to land a majestic trophy of an Indo-Pacific permit measuring 63cm whilst on on Tam Tam flat.
It’s not often that we get to show how our consevation efforts have protected these amazing atolls. Professor Andy Danulchuk & Dave Peterson visited us to begin preliminary research on a a couple programs we will be instating in partnership with the Bonefish & Tarpon Foundation as of next season. To say they were asounded by how well preserved the fishey is and undesrstatement and firmy ciments the importance of conservation going forward.
