What’s All This Then?
The ranting, musing, and general pontificating of Davin Ebanks, a sometimes marginally self-employed bonefish guide who hails from the euphemistically titled “Grand” Cayman Island, of the former British West Indies.What they said...
“It was a great grin worth a thousand words, a shrug every guide should master, a grin explaining why in the same feeding lane some trout will take a nymph, some a pupae, and others only a #23 spent-wing midge tied on a hook hand forged in Kenya just after sunrise on a winter solstice.”

That was, indeed, a nice fish. Very nice fish. Beautiful place. Nice strip set too, which isn’t what you usually see on those videos.
But I gotta ask… is that double digit? I thought maybe 8 pounds, which is a fantastic fish.
There is some inflation, generally… no?
I’d say so. Based on my experiences, your guess is about right. Do like how they handled it so briefly, though. Nice.
