Perfect conditions for a tailing orgie in the inner pool. Would the bones come?
Indeed they did, the whole flat was packed with tails flashing in the setting sun. Here's two of them.

A school of bones came at me, as seen in the right of this pictures. Sometimes it can be almost too easy out there..

Definition of good day?
How about spotting two aggressive tailers close to shore in the wee hours of the afternoon, and all you do it snap a quick picture and bid them farewell. See you guys tomorrow.

The flat fisherman's essentials; a chair, cold beer and a stupid klunky overweight camera.

A cloud made the fish spotting difficult from 4.42pm to roughly 4.43pm. Yes, it sucked.

A truly fantastic day, the storm had passed, the clouds kept their distance, and my backpack was filled with Kalik. What more could one possibly want in life?

A single prowling the shoreline for crabs. Instead of casting for it, I took some pictures and studied it for a good 15 minutes.

A truly fantastic day, two fish searching for food about 30 feet left of the dark spot. One of them would soon be hooked.

Purka was packed with bonefish. A shark got interested in the bone I was fighting, but for reasons unknown it quickly took off without going in for the kill. What a day!

Purka was packed with bonefish. Not the greatest picture, but with some imagination you might see the school in the right side of the picture.

Purka was packed with bonefish. Here's one of the many bones of the day, perhaps not a monster, but solid girth and conditioning.
