FROM THE CLIENTS: BELIZE PERMIT CLUB

March 6, 2017

IT’S PERMIT O’CLOCK

Here at Yellow Dog, we strive to position anglers throughout the globe in the right fishery to meet and hopefully exceed their expectations. We provide the firsthand knowledge and unbiased information to do our best in matching anglers with the right fisheries, destinations, guides and timing for a successful trip.

With that in mind, we wanted to provide a quick update on Belize Permit Club. BPC, as we refer to it around the office, is our newest addition to the lineup of offerings throughout the diverse country of Belize. BPC isn’t for everyone — it is a destination for the hardcore permit angler. The operation and guides are about one thing and one thing only, PERMIT. This operation isn’t about scented soaps, high thread count sheets, and white-glove service. It is about providing comfortable accommodations in a prime location to access one of the most productive permit fisheries throughout Belize which — as a country — is arguably the permit capital of the world. We are not surprised to hear from our anglers traveling to Belize Permit Club that Wil Flack and his crew have been exceeding expectations in its first year of operation. Below are a few testimonials from satisfied permit anglers who have visited Belize Permit Club in its first year of operation. If you are interested in a trip to chase these black tailed devils contact us immediately, Belize Permit Club has limited availability remaining for 2017 and prime 2018 dates are starting to fill.

Permit in water, caught while fly fishing in Belize.

“It was great to meet both Wil and Michael. Both were excellent guides and we had a great time on the water with them, despite the tough weather. Both were patient, and great at explaining things. Michael was quiet and laid back, while Wil was wonderfully intense (in a good way). Both had serious boat control and boat handling skills, and great vision for spotting permit. Being Canadian, Wil kept trying to play Celine Dion for us on the boat which was a little weird, but it was his boat, so we weren’t going to question him (just kidding – no one was harmed with the playing of Celine Dion on the trip). We had a great week, even with the tough weather and conditions. Wil’s passion for his new venture with BPC was evident throughout the week and it was a true pleasure to experience! The hospitality extended by he and his team made for a wonderful holiday, and the lodge’s small / intimate setting and permit focused fishing program was exactly what we were looking for. As far as the permit were concerned, we left with some unfinished business and will definitely be looking to return.”   — Pete

“Just wanted to say a big thanks to you and your team in Hopkins — Michael is a top guide, young Daniel for all his hard work cleaning the boats and keeping the Lodge spotless and Mindy for keeping us well fed.  And yourself for all your leg work and hosting us and the great lodge you have set up down in Hopkins, super comfortable at the end of a long day chasing permit on the most perfect flats and cleanest water in Belize. It was amazing how many tails we came across and this enabled Chris and myself to get the job done and cradle one of the toughest fish to catch on fly. Can’t wait to fish again.”   — Eugene

“We couldn’t have been happier with our experience with Wil and his staff. From the fishing to the food, everything was top notch in the most unique and special permit fishery I’ve experienced. We can’t wait to get back to BPC and on the bow of Wil’s boat and add another permit notch to the belt.”   — Carson
