Pittsdown Point Fly Fishing Vacation

Pittsdown Point BonefishThere is little tourism travel at Crooked Island and, due to its remote location and limited scheduled air service, the fishery there has been virtually untouched. This is a legitimate flats wilderness that has seen only a comparative handful of bonefishermen to date. Waves of uneducated, schooling bonefish averaging 3 pounds stir up the flats and willingly sample well-placed flies. Larger singles and doubles from 6 to 8 pounds work the edges providing more of a challenge, but they too are generally very accommodating.

Pittsdown Point Fishing

There are only four bonefish guides available on Crooked Island which makes for quiet, unspoiled flats. Fishing Pittsdown PointLarge schools of 3- to 6-pound bonefish roam the expansive flats and are surprisingly willing to sample the angler’s artificial offerings. Cruising singles and doubles are often spotted giving numerous opportunities to cast for larger fish. Standard bonefish patterns work well here; Crazy Charlies, Gotchas, and various crab patterns in flats-bottom matching colors should fool these cooperative fish. In addition to the vibrant bonefishery, near-shore fishing can be productive with hard-fighting jacks, grouper, snapper, mackerel, sharks and barracuda leading the list. Further, the offshore fishery here has proved fertile, producing three species of tuna plus wahoo and dorado.
