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 Southern Belize, anglers can expect to focus on permit with some potential for bonefish and tarpon. If you are fishing for less than five days, we recommend a bare minimum of twelve to twenty-four flies flies. To be prepared for anything, we encourage you to select a hand-picked box of thirty-six flies.
