Belize

Game fish

Belize offers the fly fishers dream, an abundance of tarpon, permit and bonefish on pristine, clear water flats. This is one of the few places in the world where you can catch the coveted "Grand Slam" (all three of these highly sought after species) in the same day!

Bonefish: The bonefish grounds are 10 to 20 minutes from the lodge and the tarpon flats begin 20 minutes from there. Most of the bone fishing is done from the bow of a boat but there are 4 or 5 flats that can be waded. The bones run from 2-5 lbs. and are plentiful. The tarpon flats are 3-8 feet deep and are quite extensive, approximately 35 miles long by 15 miles wide.

Tarpon: Not all the tarpon flats are fishable everyday due to changing weather conditions and currents, but generally speaking, we have good tarpon fishing all year round (for the "El Pescador Monthly Fishing Guide" click here.) The tarpon run from 10 to100+ lbs.; the average winter fish is about 50-60 lbs. with the average summer fish being 90 - 150 lbs.

Permit: Permit are found on the bonefish flats, some of the shallow tarpon flats as well as in waves coming over the reef. Our permit range from 4-30 lbs. with the majority being about 8-10 lbs. and found in large schools. Jack crevalle, barracuda, cobia and snook are also found on the flats and in the surrounding mangrove lagoons.

Reef fishing: El Pescador clients can also enjoy fishing the reef for snappers, grouper, wahoo, mackerel, jacks, cobia, barracuda, king fish, rainbow runners, trigger fish and during mid-May to mid-August, tarpon.

Catch and Release: Permit, bonefish and tarpon are always released; some snook, snapper, barracuda, & grouper are kept for the table.
