Dave-
I will definately provide you and The Board with a full report.

The Christmas Is. GT fishing is some of the best in the World (plus Bluefin Trevally are very prolific down there).

If you go to Christmas and want to focus on the GT's, book a week with Moana ($300/day-he also offers week packages). Moana is famous for being of the best GT guides in the World plus he also has the only center console boat on the Island.

The VAST majority of the GT fishing on the Island is done while wading the flats or trolling from the outriggers. However, Moana can easily manuever his boat along the edges of the flats to allow for the angler to cast at big GT's cruising the dropoffs (plus his boat allows for easy following of the big ones).

A good freind spent a day with Moana in October and they ran into numerous GT's (on the fly) and landed one over 50#'s.
