BUMPIES, TRIGGERS BONES & GEETS WERE ALL ON THIS WEEKS’ SCORECARD

Bumpies, triggers, bones, and geets were all added to this week’s scorecard as seven guests joined us at Farquhar Atoll. With the weather playing its part for most of the week, some fantastic catches were had throughout.

Charles Tyson had a great week as he landed three decent giant trevallies as well as a good number of bonefish.

The Father and daughter team of Anthony and Sofia Mar also had a great time. It was Sofia’s first-time saltwater flyfishing and she relished every opportunity given to her. She ended up landing her first bonefish, giant trevally, and ending the week with a fantastic bumphead parrotfish.

Anthony also racked up the bones and managed two moustache triggerfish. He, too, landed a Bumpy making the two of them with the only Bumpies of the week.

Patrick and Isabelle Lanier enjoy their week with multiple bonefish. Patrick with two enormous moustache triggerfish measuring 51cm each. Sadly Isabelle hooked and lost her triggerfish.

We had the film crew from WildFly join us this week, namely Gareth George and Grevin Price. Gareth had an incredible week with four giant trevallies to his name. He also managed a Flats Slam comprising of a moustache trigger, bonefish, and giant trevally in one day. Grevin also managed the same Slam on the same day. Sadly, they both lost all their Bumpies that they hooked into throughout the week. Grevin, again, unfortunately, came unbuttoned to a milkfish on the last day.

Despite the south easter wind picking up towards the end of the week, overall, it was a fun-filled time with many good stories around the dinner table.
