ALPHONSE ISLAND FLY FISHING REPORT (29 JUN – 06 JUL 2024)
ALPHONSE ISLAND FLY FISHING REPORT | 29 JUN – 06 JUL 2024
Another fantastic week has come to a close in our explorer season. Great tides matched with decent weather provided some excellent fishing on the St. Francois Atoll.
The bone fishing was consistent as usual, with a total of 76 landed for the week between our 6 anglers. Greg Ghaui managed to get stuck in, landing his first bonefish amongst many more for the week. There was also a good amount of GT and triggerfish action for the week. Greg managed to catch his first GT of 96 cm up in the Cosmic Lagoon.
Father and son duo Pieter and Alex Du Preez had some great fishing as well, each bringing a GT and a yellow margin trigger to hand. Fantastic achievements, gents; well done!
Nick ended up having a special trip with two GTs, one of which taped out at 102 cm, the biggest of the week. These were paired with a lovely moustache triggerfish and a bonefish on the same day, making it a fantastic Flats Slam.
Our Angler of the Week award most certainly went to Brent Poultney. Brent had an incredible week, landing five GTs and a big moustache trigger of 54 cm. He also managed to entice the only permit of the week: a stunning 59 cm on Tam Tam Flat. Congratulations, Brent!
Thank you for a great week, everyone. We hope you enjoyed yourself, and we hope to see you all back soon!
