Man those are some awesome photographs! I think the shot " guide poles against an angry sky" is my favorite. Sure like the thought of being able to pick up some Cubans ( cigars ) in the way to fish. Looks like a heck of a good time.

Nice photos. The great people of the Islands make a trip there very special.

Polling against and angry sky is by far one of the best pictures I have seen in a while. that shot really tells a story right there!

Thanks you guys, the trip was unforgettable, we did venture out to a near by island, Sweetings Cay, to hang out at the local bar with the locals
That shot is one of my favorite as well. TS Kate gave us those beautiful clouds. Its mind blowing how much bigger the fish are in the Atlantic than the ones are in the Yucatan. Im hoping to host a trip there in Nov. 2016

Jose told me it was the trip a lifetime, and he definitely plans to go back. I wish I could afford to go too, but it just won't fit into the budget. Sure would be great to fish the Bahamas again, and it'd be great to see Joe at the Lodge. For anyone interested in making it there, Jose said they are putting together some package trips to DWC. Well worth a look.
