Belize Fishing Reports - Ambergris Caye
February 2, 2020
Last week fishing was mixed with an average bag of bonefish, a variety of Snapper species, and one large permit of 30 Lbs. Wind and cloud cover made conditions a bit tough at times.

Fishing improved with more favorable weather conditions. The fish were more aggressive, and Bonefish were around in good numbers.

El Pescador hosted few anglers last week so the fishing was light. From February onward, many more flies will be presented to fish on the flats. Unseasonal rain and cloud cover made fishing tough.

Last week, El Pescador hosted two large "family and friends" groups. Our big group was a wonderful family of 18 from Wisconsin ( Great Green Bay Fans !) In this party, Luke took an excellent 30 Lb Permit! In our "Boston" group, Chris & Tyler took good Permit and Bonefish, respectively.

This has been a great week for Permit, with almost all anglers hooking up. Several with multiple Permit during the stay. A Permit was even caught from the dock. Tarpon fishing has been a little tricky with lots of sightings, but not many landed for the week. Bonefish have been plentiful, and several really large fish caught.

Anglers continued to have plenty of shots this week with a lot of good eats and tarpon coming unbuttoned on the first or second jump. El Pescador advises anglers to practice strip setting and putting away the trout set before venturing out. In all, it was a great week for permit and the tarpon seem to be more willing to be fed flies!

Sight fishing was tough with clouds and a few rain days, making it hard to see fish. That did not stop one angler from a Grand Slam, and a few others almost achieved it as well. Bones were receptive and available regardless. Anglers had no trouble getting into them. Those seeking Permit had their work cut out for them, but three landed. Tarpon available on the flats, and the back lagoon enticed and rewarded anglers. A good number landed, and more jumped as always the case. Lots of smiles during the dock walk at the end of the day.
