Capt. Rupert Leadon Passes

Captain Rupert Leadon of Andros Island, Bahamas passed away last week. He helped pioneer bonefishing on Andros Island and in 1984 purhchased the property of a former sisal plantation from the Bahamian government with a dream to build a bonefish lodge. Shortly thererafter, he erected Andros Island Bonefish Club which has been around the longest on Andros.  I’ll remember the day spent with Rupert fishing Andros’ famous West Side and the almost nightly “Rake and Scrape” performances with his favorite saw.  Thank you Rupert.
