Tip
Tip: On a beachside flat, fish can be reached from the beach without a watercraft, and bonefish are a realistic do-it-yourself target, while permit are a more difficult target
How to do it: Fish beachside flats on foot for bonefish as a realistic independent target, recognising permit as harder
Mistake it fixes: Assuming all flats species are equally accessible on foot
Why it works: Bonefish on beach flats are accessible without a boat, while permit require more skill and often a boat. Setting realistic targets improves trip success.
When it matters most: Saltwater flats, beach fishing
