February and march are big bone time in water cays
Looking for the best time to wade for big bones, those double-digit monsters flats anglers dream about? Or do you prefer staying busy and casting to lots of feeding fish in the 3- to 6-pound class? Try Feb and March and you can have both. Why? The big boys like cooler water. They stay on the flats longer, and you'll find the largest numbers of big bones on flats with easy access to deeper water on the oceanside, and on the west side out on those massive sand banks. The same holds true for numbers of fish feeding aggressively,
The Water Cays has both, nearby ocean, and wide open access to the Grand Bahama Bank. Plus the area of wadable flats is seemingly endless. There are many flats you can't come close to covering in a single tide. Too many tailing fish to cast to, and just too much area to cross as the tide rises.
Nice problem to have; too much good water to fish. And which tide do we prefer? First of the incoming for wading across large flats, and last of the falling for setting up at ambush points between the many cays. But hey, its all good, and as the tide gets up you head back to your skiff and your guide can pole along cay shorelines and bays that had gone dry earlier.
Fishing the Water Cays usually requires long runs from lodges on the east side of the island, but with Eleven's Mothership anchored nearby, you can be on the flats earlier and stay later. On the Eleven Mothership our exceptional team of Bahamian guides are led by Captain Marvin Miller and Captain Ornald "Shine" Greene. Ready to book the most exciting and unique trip in the Bahamas?
