Whether or not live bait has a place in flyfishing is up for debate, but what's not up for debate is the incredible strength, agility, and skill of the Carnaderos. It is a craft that they take great pride and sport in.

In the first pic Iván and crew are schooling the baitfish (probably ballyhoo) together, before he will through the 10 - 12ft (~18lb) net while the boat is still in motion. It's an impressive feat to watch. Catching ballyhoo takes more than double the effort as sardines. To throw and haul this net over 100 times a day, is hard to comprehend.

We were incredibly lucky to have Iván (Cebollo) as part of the team this year. He takes the craft seriously, and is an all around upstanding person and respected member of the community.

Catching and selling sardines here is permitted and regulated. An upside is that it places value on a healthy sardine population for the local communities and ecosystem, versus the commercial fishing boats that decimate the populations with little oversight, and use the sardines in the least resourceful way possible (dried and ground up for livestock and dog food).

We refer to using live bait as one of the "tools in our toolbox", but not the only one by any means. We also walk the beach, blind and sight cast the island and reefs, throw and troll teasers... we do it all. There really is endless opportunity in a fishery as diverse as this, and we are excited to continue to hone our skills with our crew of deeply experienced and committed Captains and Carnaderos!
