Default Bonefish brain teaser

Real story. My father was bonefishing in Florida a few years ago out of a lodge. The day trips are guided. Each pair of fishermen go with a guide, who stands behind them on a 3 foot platform poling the boat and spotting bonefish. Bonefish are nearly white, and the flats they frequent are white sand. It is very hard to see one directly. So, the guides look for shadows cast by the fish, then call out the locations for you to cast to. If you catch five bonefish, you've had an excellent day.

One day it was overcast and gray. Of the 13 guides, not one saw a bonefish. Only one fisherman caught any. He caught eight, all of which he spotted himself.

What was his profession?
