Most saltwater anglers know how hard it is to catch a bonefish.

They are finicky fish (they are scared of their own shadow), not to mention they have an uncanny ability to find habitats that basically mirror and camouflage the bonefish from predators and anglers.

So when we came across this amazing bonefish video by Patrick Rhea of LivitFilms, we had to post it.

Not just for the great footage of the backcountry Bahamas bonefishing action, but for the amazing job with this 2-minute film. For those of you that are into videography, you will certainly have an appreciation for Patrick’s work like I do.

This amazing video footage shows a massive school of bonefish offshore for a mating ritual in The Bahamas.

Dr. Andy Danylchuk (UMass Amherst), Dr. Aaron Adams (Bonefish & Tarpon Trust/Florida Institute of Technology), Dr. Jon Shenker (Florida Institute of Technology), and Zack Jud (Florida International University) performed a study about spawning habits of bonefish.

In the study, they confirmed that bonefish form massive spawning aggregations at very specific locations during specific lunar days.
