Shop For Your Next Bahamas Fly Fishing Adventure
The Bahamas is known worldwide as a fantastic bonefishing destination with opportunities for permit, tarpon, barracuda, and other game species. Most anglers traveling to The Bahamas are going there to pursue bonefish, so the bulk of your gear preparations should be focused on the "silver ghost." With that said, depending on your final destination and the time of year, big permit and tarpon can be quite common. Depending on where you are fishing, wading can be the ideal method of pursuing bonefish for the benefit of stealth, so anglers should pack apparel and accessories accordingly.

Having extensively traveled and fly fished the world, we are the industry’s foremost authority on destination-specific equipment, gear, and flies. Over a week of fishing in The Bahamas, anglers will prioritize bonefish, but permit, tarpon, barracuda, and mutton snapper can be found. If you are fishing for less than five days, we recommend a bare minimum of twenty-four flies or a more adequate selection of thirty six flies. To be prepared for anything, we encourage you to select a hand-picked box of forty-eight flies.
A couple of large, tube-style flies and large popper patterns can be excellent for catching barracuda or sharks while on the flats.
