Well, counting the days until my dad and i depart for x-mas island. I'm putting together lists for terminal tackle, and was wondering if anybody who has fished there has any suggestions? Planning on taking the average bonefish flies (crazy charlies, gotchyas, x-mas island specials, i've been tying them in 4's and 6's with pretty big eyes), leaders i was thinking 9 footers tapering down from 8 to 16 pound, plus wire leaders for cuda, and some bigger tarpon/billfish leaders for GT's, and all the offshore fish, and for flies i've been tying whistlers, but should prolly pick up some other big baitfish patterns and poppers. Anybody had any success there on milkfish? algae flies? Is a stripping basket an assett to have along? I've searched the web for LL bean's discontinued stripping basket with no success. Thanks in advance -Loren
