Did anyone else cheer out when Rich yelled "it's a bone"? I haven't been this excited about a bone since prom night 20 years ago, awesome catch Rich!!!

Catching that bonefish really lifted your spirits, It’s funny how you can be dead tired after hours of not catching anything, but as soon as you catch one fish it gives you the ultimate boost

Listen man, I don't know if a lot of people appreciate what you do, but I sure do. A lot of folks don't realize how freaking tough it is to fly to another part of a country you know very little about and just take a kayak and not only fish in an unfamiliar area, but actually catch fish that you've never fished for before. I have a lot of respect for you man and your dedication to fishing. Keep it up man, so much fun as a floridian to watch a fellow angler have so much fun in our area

I know that launch spot!! Pretty sure that road was built for the smugglers to move "product" back in the 70s and 80s. Couldn't be more in the middle of no where. There's a deep channel just off that launch that I keep meaning to fish but haven't gotten to yet.

So stoked for you!! I lived in Islamorada for 3.5 yrs and worked those waters via kayak for all of them. I caught Snook, Tarpon and Permit, but can honestly say, don't know if I EVER even saw a Bone. I tried hard to scout them, but never had success. Seeing you achieve what I KNOW is SOOO DIFFICULT made my day!! I was as excited as you were. Nice WORK!!! Thanks for bringing back that feeling. Cheers!!

I remember growing up ... I used to watch the Walker's Cay Chronicles on the weekends. Bonefish became my 'grail' fish. It seemed like such an amazing adventure out on the flats. I haven't even gotten through your video yet, but I knew the word 'bonefish' was going to come out of your mouth before you said it. Glad you're chasing down that experience. I'll watch the rest of the video now. ;)

I caught two back in the late 70's when we took yearly family fishing trips to Islamorada. The largest was 4.2 lbs. and nearly spooled me on the first run. I was using 15lb. test on a Ryobi Silver Cloud 5. Probably the fastest fish on the flats. It hit a Mepps spoon with mirror reflective tape.

Congrats on your first bonefish. Thanks for taking us along with you on this trip. My dad took me bonefishing many years ago, with a friend of his who was a guide. You have to sneak up on them, watching for their flash of silver just out of the surface of the water. What a thrill, right?
