Week In Review

We have been enjoying our normal tradewinds this week, which has shown in excellent fishing due to an influx of sargassum that had a lot of fish working the reef side of the islands. We found fish consistently and generally had fish to work all day out there. They weren’t as consistent about eating, but life can’t be perfect! All in all, a great week to be in Belize.
