Edward Johnston's recent trip the Turneffe Island Lodge was quite memorable. Edward Johnston caught his first permit on the fly 20 years ago fishing from the Turneffe Atoll and now 20 years later, Edward Johnston caught his 101st permit on the fly again at the Turneffe Atoll, but here is the really cool part, Edward caught the 101st permit with the same guide as the first one. The whole story will be published here soon!
