went down for a long weekend and was able to sneak in some fishing. tried to book a charter for bonefish but jump dem bones was all booked up. ended up finding a shore guide who does hand line fishing and it sounded interesting so I spent the morning with him and got to see how the locals do it. after a night of drinking most of the rum on the island we met up at his honey hole at a gentlemanly 8 am. we walked and crawled through some mangroves for a few minutes and arrived at a tiny harbor loaded with bait. one throw of a castnet and we were loaded up with chum and bait for the day. small silversides and peanut bunker sized pilchards.
