Carl and the crew at On The Fly, of Once in a Blue Moon fame, have a number of new film projects in the works. Their latest project takes them to Aitutaki in the Cook Islands to follow the story of a young local man as he hangs up his bonefish nets to become a fly fishing guide.
According to Carl there are very sizable bonefish in the beautiful lagoon on Aitutaki, but they've been subjected to fair amount of pressure by local netters over the years. The hope is that through this film project a few more of the locals can be encouraged to hang up their nets and help manage the resource in a more sustainable manner. This change would see the creation of valuable jobs and much needed income for the Island and decreased pressure on the monster bones of Aitutaki!
