Acklins Island, Bahamas OTF!

First trip to the Islands, and it was off the hook!!!
Already making plans for return trip!!!
2 days with the guides, my choice of days.
Other 4 days were DIY in the Kayak…
Unreal… Biggest lessons learned?
Learn to Back Cast better in the wind, 30mph + first
three days…
Biggest lesson?.. Never take off your stripping glove,
did that to re-rig and almost lost a finger on the second Cuda,
almost to the bone…:dizzy_face:
Hope y,all enjoy.

When I hooked the first one, the guide was hooting and howling about the party tonight? I thought you were not suppose to eat them. He said the flats cuda are great to eat, not the Oceanside cuda. Then a second one, he was so happy! So cool! got to help the locals…

Good luck on Andros brother…:sunglasses:

Awesome slideshow! Thanks for sharing and looks like a fantastic trip!
