Flyfishing In Saltwater Back Issues???

[wildbows]

I was wondering if anyone collected their back issues of Flyfishing In Saltwater? I've been told there are three issues that have in depth articles on Roatan. I am going there this winter and will be doing allot of D.I.Y for Bones and Permit and these magazines are apparently very informative. I contacted the Publisher and they only go back 3 years, so they recommended E-Bay and that fell short as well. So, here I am. I'm hoping someone can photo copy or scan them and mail it to me. I would certainly cover any costs that may be involved.

1) Flyfishing in Saltwater vol.6 no.5 Sept/Oct 1999 #47540

2) March/April 2000

3) Saltwater Flyfishing wrote an article about Roatan and Utila in 2001.

This is all the info I have.

Fingers crossed,

Wildbows,

I'm holding the March/April 2000 edition in my hand, but I don't see anything specific about Roatan in it. There is an article about fishing the Yucatan coast... is this the article you're looking for?

The issue has Lefty on the cover in a flats boat with a massive tarpon.

PM me if you want the mag, I'll send it to you...

Thanks Chuckster, I do appreciate it but it's Roatan I'm specifically after. It sure is a difficult place to find D.I.Y. info on. One guy told me he was going to mail me copies of each article but he seems to have vanished. Please let me know if you run across it.

Best regards,

I looked through all of the copies that I had and that was the closest related article... sorry.

On the bright side, I came across some great fly patterns in the process, so I have something new to work on this weekend at the vise!

Good luck and have a blast on your trip!

You might check Juro Makai's site as well ( he posts on RT a lot); those guys always seem to have info on out-of-the-way places. --127-3-

Titleguy. I Googled Juro Makai and only came up with the odd message about him, but no web site. Do you have the address?

Thanks in advance,
