6 LUMINARY ANGLERS, 1 WEEK ON THE ULTIMATE BONEYARD
HELL’S BAY BOATWORKS WAS THERE FOR IT ALL

Pirates of the Flats follows legendary news anchor Tom Brokaw - who will also narrate the series -- famous actor Michael Keaton, angling icon Lefty Kreh, acclaimed author Thomas McGuane, visionary industry leader Yvon Chouinard, and celebrated photographer R. Valentine Atkinson as they prepare to rendezvous with each other on the famed saltwater flats of the Bahamas. Their quest? The island's legendary bonefish. But these notables are fishing for answers, too. How can we save these last great coastal environments? It's a question that has been the heart of Bonefish and Tarpon Trust's mission since 1998, and is being pursued by some of the world's top scientists from the Cape Eleuthra Institute, Bonefish and Tarpon Trust, and The Bahamas. The series will answer this question as it documents the cutting-edge research and conservation being performed to preserve these species.
