Located off the coast of Belize, the waters of Ambergris Caye are home to some of the best fly fishing for Bonefish on the planet. There’s a seemingly endless expanse of saltwater flats surrounding the island, most commonly fished from a boat (with a guide). But a DIY walk and wade shore fishing experience is also possible; those who know the right access points and hot spots can catch bonefish and other species (Barracuda, Jacks, Snapper, Permit, etc.) right off the beach. The bonefish is by far the most popular character in the lineup of flats species. They are eager to take flies, and renowned for their athleticism, astonishing strength and reel-sizzling runs!
When you only have a few days in Belize on vacation, you want to optimize your fly fishing time ... and there's simply too much water to scout on your own. I've done the scouting already and know where the best beach fishing hot spots are ... and where to go for solitude and an incredible saltwater flats bonefishing experience.
Whether you're a novice or not, this self-guided experience tells you exactly how to catch bonefish on the fly. It will guide you to specific coordinates where the best walk and wade fly fishing spots are, and how to reach them via non-obvious roads and access routes. I'll tell you how to get there, where to park, what hot spots to fish, what to use, how to fish them, and how to have the best DIY shore fishing excursion -- for a day or more, alone or with friends!
