In October of 2009 we headed to Mexico to film at Casa Blanca and Playa Blanca Lodge, in hopes of creating a segment for the Fly Fishing Film Tour. Over the course of 10 days we (cameramen Joey Macomber and RA Beattie) documented a group from Ketchum on the Fly as they searched for Bonefish, Permit, Tarpon and Snook on the fly. We had a great shoot and captured stunning media of Bonefish, Tarpon and Snook, but the Permit eluded us…
In December we had an opportunity to return to the lodge to finish the shoot. Again, things looked bleak as a bad northern storm pounded us all week. On the last two days of the trip, however, we were granted a bit of sun and a break from the wind and were able to get out on the flats. During this time Casa Blanca’s Eric Carvalho landed a beautiful Permit on film, then went on to land one of the largest Snook I have ever seen.
