East-side ocean flats, Current Cut, the Exuma bank if you keep going. Permit and bones, more weather than Andros.

Where

  • Current Cut

    channel gut · public structure · deep

    7.7

    Named cut. Current is the whole fishery. Not a beginner wade.

    • — channel gut on a outgoing tide is a classic match.
    • — In-play: Permit.
    skiffspinfly

  • Eleuthera east ocean flats

    hard flat · public structure · skinny

    7.7

    Ocean swell and wind. When it lays down, it is the shot.

    • — hard flat on a outgoing tide is a workable match.
    • — In-play: Bonefish, Permit.

Why — and who

  • — Tide is outgoing (modeled — no NOAA gauge on this water).
  • — New moon — spring tide range. Marsh and passes usually want the extra current of a spring.
