This is not a striper question, but I know many people on this forum have wet a line in faraway places. I am going to Mexico for a week at the end of this month, and have scheduled a flats fishing trip to Cozumel. We will be targeting bonefish, permit, barracuda, and maybe baby tarpon as per the guide's web page. This will be spinning, not fly fishing.

The guide will obviously provide all the necessary gear, but I thought I would take along a few artificials to try if things were slow. Does anyone have any specific recommendations? Should I presume that anything imitating shrimp and small crabs would be a good bet? Should I try a Hab's needlefish???
