Boat Sailed Jan 12, 1974 Fair fishing day as he left camp early (7:45 AM) for Ascencion Bay. Arrived on same grounds where we started yesterday but found very little bonefish activity. Conditions of water and calm air seemed perfect, but no fish. Up to about noon I hadn't caught a fish and was pretty discouraged. Then rather abruptly the flats where we were cruising erupted with tails. Some individuals were obviously bigger as there were several cruising alone or with only one other companion. I hooked three of these "solitaries" and landed two of them, of 22'1/2 and 23'1/2 inches - much the biggest fish I had seen. The latter fought for over 35 minutes and at one time had nearly all my backing out (150 yds.). Cedric from as his wife Joanne stopped by for the landing and took some photos. After a late lunch we looked around and all the tails had disappeared. He reeled about two hours. He went then to the String of islands in the middle of the Bay and I caught two more bonefish, ordinary size. Woody ended the day with six - nothing unusually large. He went home early to grab a gray out bill with Xavier Borges. He was too early for the assembly of nesting birds but had a nice look at the flamingos. Home to California early January 13.
