Who's going fishing
Anybody going south to fish this winter?
The last few years I've gone to Turcs and Caicos for some bone fishing. Before that I'd be in SW Fla for some snook and redfish...I'll be spending this winter wishin' about fishin'.

I was suppose to have an event in FL to travel to. Was planning on spending a couple extra days and hunt for some Redfish. Event canceled though.

Going to Barbados with the Mrs next month for 2 weeks. Wifey said "go fishing if you want to".
But i don't know what they have to offer there. I ain't spending big bucks to catch small fish and get high fives from the crew !!!!!!
Might do the Keys again this spring (maybe).
Have not had a tarpon on the line in quite a few years.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.

I would love to try bone fishing. Who should I contact down there and do I need to bring any gear or do they provide everything?

Try this site http://www.turksandcaicos.tc/fishing/index.htm
I fished with this guy http://turksandcaicosbonefishing.com/, he was very knowledgeable and poled his ass off. We got lots of bones and had one cast at a pair of permit.
If you have a rod case I always bring my own rod/reel. Plan a day trip to Northwest Point, it's the least inhabited and most beautiful part of the island. You'll need to rent a Jeep for the day as the trail to this part of the island is pretty washed out. I haven't fished there, but there lwas some fishy ooking spots both at NW point and along the road there. If you go, bring plenty of water, there isn't anywhere to buy anything once you get off the paved road, don't forget you fins and snorkel. There's very good diving/snorkeling right off the beach many places on Provo. Have a bunch of conch fritters and conch salad for me!

You must have some reliable holdover spots nearby. For me, winters for rod building/repairs and as Spring gets near, some early recon. I used to go ice drinking errr ice fishing, but the ice on Cape is not very consistent. Good luck to those brave souls on the ice and to those who can find a Striper when the snows flying.
