Kicked some bonefish ass

many cudas, landed 25-30 sharks 3-6' (lemon, spinners), drank 11 bottles of Nassau Royale. Fish on!
-Dave

30 fish in the last 2 days. Drank 2 L rum & 1 L Drambue (+beers of course). That's for 2, which is a better rate of consumption than the first lot!

I spent a wonderful week with Samuel Knowles. He is an outstanding guide; can find fish where you (I, anyway) would swear there are none & works incredible hard to insure your success. He has fished the area since he was a boy & knows the dozens of miles of cays & flats. In addition, he is a genuinely nice person & a pleasure to be with. There are always fish somewhere & he will find them.
-Fred Picker

I have fished with Sammy 3 times;
once with my wife, once with a buddy & once with my son. I can say that Sammy is an outstanding guide & a real gentleman. He is patient, has tremendous eye sight & works his tail off for you. We all caught good numbers of bones & had great times.
