Bahamas Day 5

I'm falling behind on my posting so I am going to make this a pictorial post.  Let me just say that on most trips there is usually one day that stands out as the trip maker...that would be this day. ET guided hard and with his pushpole magically pushed the skiff from bonefish to bonefish while keeping us in a circle of high sun and great visibility.  On one occasion as a shark was tracking a bonefish that CA had hooked and was fighting, ET splashed his pushpole and confused the shark into tracking the pole instead of the fish....when the shark was within range he gave it a quick prod with the pole and sent it scurrying.  CA landed the fish and I jumped out to of the skiff to get some photos.  ET kept his eyes open and repeated the shark prod again while I was ignorantly knee deep taking shots...Mad guiding skills. 

Perfect
