Cocos Jan 2017

Post by Tigh28 » Mon Jul 31, 2017 8:03 am

Beginning of this year I had a second trip back to Cocos and put together a bit of footage from the trip. Such an amazing place and a place that really got me hooked on fly fishing. The video goes for about 10 mins and the fly fishing is at about the 7:20 mark if you want to skip the other stuff. Set the video to HD in the settings for good quality. Hope you enjoy.

Great footage. Thanks. We've got a trip booked in December, can't wait. Any advice on a good spot for bones? Cheers in advance.

Stephen, the bonefish weren't to hard to find at the right tides..... The humpies were easy to find and I did manage to hook one and the last I saw of him was heading out to sea.....
