Difficult--Very, Very Edition
From what I hear, Permit are one of the most difficult fish in the sea when it comes to getting them to eat. When you see this many shots in front of you and still come up empty handed, I can believe it. This is when you probably blame the guide for giving you a lousy fly...and the guide probably blames you for being a noob.

Belize Bonefish And Permit
For you die hard fly fishers, the spinning rod gets put away fairly quickly. There's some neat underwater footage in this piece. I especially like the hermit crab.

Although there are some slow bits, the sailfish portion is worth the wait. See what you think.

Earmuffs
There's some sweet footage of tarpon and permit here but at 2 minutes and 48 seconds there's a piece you've got to see. Somebody musta peed on buddy's cornflakes for the reaction he has to losing his monster permit.

All Aboard--A Tarpon Tale
In those tight quarters I wondered if he was gonna land this baby poon. I never considered the fact that it might land itself.

Tangled
This one reminds me of my last steelhead. I set the hook with a moderate amount of slack line still in hand. As the fish starts running down river the line loops around my finger and knots itself on. I ran downstream continually trying to flick the loop off my finger hoping to keep the leader from breaking. Eventually I managed to free the line from my finger and land the fish. This video from 406 Productions makes my little episode look like child's play.
