Episode 58 - ALEC GERBEC - Fly Fishing St. Brandons Atoll

On this episode of WAYPOINTS, Alec is joined by host Jim Klug to explore the intricacies of fly fishing at St. Brandon's Atoll, one of the most remote trips Yellow Dog offers. In May 2024, Yellow Dog's Alec Gerbec had the opportunity to visit St. Brandon’s Atoll, located 268 nautical miles north of Mauritius in the Indian Ocean. The trip spanned from May 7 to 17, 2024, featuring seven full days of flats fishing, with additional days allocated for travel between Mauritius and the Atoll. The week was a tremendous success, with the group landing a total of 272 bonefish and 5 permit. The average bonefish weighed around 7 pounds, and they even caught three 13-pounders.
