Giant trevally should be the day — flood St François and the lagoon — bones first, then a GT on the rim. Work the leeward shore — fly gets harder.

20 mph SE · rain · incoming

Where

  • St François flats · 6.5hard flat on a incoming tide is a classic match.
  • Alphonse lagoon · 6.1hard flat on a incoming tide is a classic match.
