Yet again I had to share the flat with a bird, more specifically a long-beeked bush-seagul, which belongs to the parrot family of birds.

A couple of barracudas were nervously standing in the middle of the shark infested bay.

To salvage a poor day, I head for another flat in the afternoon. The low but bright sun made the tailing fins obvious.

Everything appeared to be perfect.. Except for a slight snag with the bonefish that for reasons unknown never showed.

The good weather came back as the other two fishermen left, and once again I started on a long trek out in what appeared to be perfect conditions.

The bad weather continued on Wednesday. Two new fishermen stopped by for a few days. Their timing for this quick trip sucked.

Conditions were perfect for a long trek out to the open seas on a rising tide, or at least so I thought.

The day started out great with clear skies, but in less than half an hour dark clouds and hard rain surrounded me. Visibility down to a few hundred meters.

I finally managed to get up early and fish on a rising tide.

After the last few days poor hookings and snapped leaders, I came prepared with fresh flies and 20 lbs tippet.

Upon reaching the chair island, the clouds had almost cleared.

Yesterday's endless waves of tailing bonefish were sabotaged by a few sharks, and the spooked bones gathered in a school and panicked around, well out of reach.

Yet another hungry bonefish was spotted. After four strong runs, it was rewarded with its freedom.

Monday started off with light showers and thick clouds, but it soon started to clear. However, spotting fish was far from easy in the dim light.

The regular afternoon tailing was limited to a handful of paranoid bonefish today.

No wonder it appeared to be constant high tide, I was carrying half the bottom home in my rather crappy wading boots.

One shark helped itself to the tail-end of the bone, and I fought the other shark with the remained of the bonefish for a few minutes. A 5 foot shark is a lot stronger than any bonefish, and not surprisingly my 1x tippet didn't last long.
