You'll love Tobago, for all the reasons Polite has mentioned. My own experience is of fishing at the beginning of June, so not much help for January. However, the beaches don't change through the year, only the inhabitants!. Fish like Jacks and Barracuda are year-round, as are the bones - the few that there are. I actually saw quite a few, but getting a fly to them was something else! You might do well to have a session with a guide, and Kester Herbert stands out as the premier guide on the island. He certainly know his stuff, understands fly fishing (enthusiastically) and is an all round good guy. Worth every penny. The My Tobago web site is essential reading, and Mike Ladle's saltwater diary has some entries concerning Tobago, and is well worth a look. By the way, if you stay in the lowland area, you know you MUST go to Sunday School.
