Have you ever heard of Bonefish? Translated as "bone fish" or banana fish. Its scientific name is "Albula vulpes".
The Rodmaps team had the chance to cross paths with them in Mexico in 2013, on the island of Socotra in 2014 and in Belize in 2016.
Bonefish are modestly sized fish that can grow to around 1 meter in length for around 10 kilograms maximum. This fish has many distinctive signs, such as its color which turns between white and silver.
It is therefore very difficult to see when the reverberation is strong. We advise you to equip yourself with a good pair of polarized glasses. It is a fish that feeds on the bottom, in constant search of crustaceans, larvae, shells and small fish. Its upper jaw is larger than the lower part, which is perfect for finding all its prey.
The first step is to fish the right areas. Usually this fish loves to search the sandy shoals near the coast. Discretion is the key word for its research.
For most bonefish, light rods will be enough to surprise them, since you have to fish with small lures. We advise you to take some models of our travel rods:
