Description: Chris Dombrowski was playing a numbers game: two passions poetry and fly - fishing; two children one of them in utero; and an income hovering perilously close to zero. Enter at this particularly challenging moment a miraculous email: can t go it's all paid for just book a flight to Miami. Thus began a journey that would lead to the Bahamas and to David Pinder a legendary bonefishing guide. Bonefish are prized for their elusiveness and their tenacity. And no one was better at hunting them than Pinder a Bahamian whose accuracy and patience were virtuosic. He knows what the fish think said one fisherman before they think it. By the time Dombrowski meets Pinder however he has been abandoned by the industry he helped build. With cataracts from a lifetime of staring at the water and a tiny severance package after forty years of service he watches as the world of his beloved bonefish is degraded by tourists he himself did so much to attract. But as Pinder's stories unfold Dombrowski discovers a profound integrity and wisdom in the guide's life.
