Shop For Your Next Southern Belize Fly Fishing Adventure

Southern Belize is known as one of the best destinations in the world to target permit. They are commonly found tailing, one of the most exciting ways of targeting this difficult game species. Primarily a permit fishery, there are limited opportunities for tarpon, bonefish, and other species. The flats of Southern Belize are covered in coral, sea fans, and sea grass, so strong, durable wading boots are a must, and flies with weed guards are recommended.

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.

  • How Many Flies? Three to six of the staple tarpon patterns such as the toad, cockroach, or big-eye tarpon are recommended.
  • Sizes and Colors? The common colors of grizzly, black, purple, and chartreuse work well in sizes 1/0-3/0.
