Went wading on a sand flat for some jacks and ladyfish at the tip of GB and landed a cute little 10in bonefish. I pitched a pink jig to 3 shadows cruising that I assumed were all ladyfish and he peeled off from the group and ate 5 feet from me. Just thought you guys would like to know.

That is pretty cool. I guess he was a little small for one of those smoking runs. Still neat to catch one.

Nope, no pics. I didn't have my camera with me. I just found it funny that after spending 5 months in the Keys fishing literally every single day, all day, that I'm home for 3 days and I still catch bonefish. I guess he followed me home.

I'm pretty sure I saw a bonefish once while sightfishing for pompano off the pier. Speaking of strange fish, my buddy caught a juvenile african pompano at bob sykes yesterday

Bonefish, permit, tarpon. I would have never given it a second thought here. Bring on some more global warming. Gonna leave my truck run all day now, put the earmuffs on the skeet and wait for peacock bass to show up in the in the bayou. This place gets better every day. Really cool, thanks for the report.

Thats really cool. I've always sat on my dock on a calm day with clear water and thought about how good the sand flats where I live would be for bonefishing if we were further south. Who knows, maybe more will show up and I'll catch some off my dock!

way off topic, but you guys should see the locals here in Milton catch mullet with worms and a cane pole!  It's a cool thing to see.  They use dog food to chum up the mullet and then use a worm on a hook.  Fun to watch.

Its possible.It would be nice to have a picture. I dont dought your word. Just a therory. With this so called global warming going on maybe that southern waters are getting to warm and fish are migrating north for cooler waters. I moved here in the 80's.I would always hear in the summer of tarpon being cought,this is not unusual. Now I see permit pix posted. Now a bone fish being cought and alot more manaties being sited. I'm surprized we havent got a report of a snook being cought. What do you all think?

I'm pretty sure if he's been fishing in the keys for the past 5 months he knows what a bonefish looks like.

Now, That is cool.  Just out of curiousity, what kind of jig did you catch it one.  You posted it was Pink and that made me curious......

Now Garbo, do you want the truth or do you want me to tell you what you want to hear
Sadly it was not caught on a Connor's jig, just a Bass Pro one.
However, you can definitely add tripletail, yellowjacks, bonnetheads, numerous species of snappers, and loads of schoolie dolphin to the list of things that will eat a Connor's jig

It would have been cool.  He has the request for pink more than any other color.   Let me know how we can get together someday and I will trade out some for those Bass Pro one's.  

Thanks for the plug, He does tie a beautiful jig.

It's not too far fetched. 

There was one caught at Phillips Inlet in Panama City 3 years ago in October.  The guy was surf fishing with Sand Fleas.  The Bonefish was a fairly large one it weighed about 6lbs.  I saw the fish, and it was a Bonefish. 

Jerermy Lindsey caught a Permit last fall near the old house on Shell Island in Panama City.  It was a small Permit but not a juvenile, I think it was about 8lbs.  He has caught more Permit than you would think.  If I am not mistaken Jeremy Hogue caught a Permit last year, and posted a picture of it.  Lindsey has hooked some (Permit) that were more than he could manage with Pompano tackle. 

It would have been cool to see a picture, but I don't question that it can happen. 

But truthfully the first thing that came to my mind when reading the origional post, was that was probably the first true "Sight Fished" Bonefish caught in the panhandle.
