To fly fishermen the Bahamas means bonefish. With over 700 islands and cays spread over 300 miles, the Bahamas contain endless miles of accessible flats with great numbers of bonefish. That’s what you go for. What brings you back are the sun-drenched beaches, the turquoise water, balmy breezes, the conch chowder and warm and welcoming Bahamian people. We have hand picked from among the best Bahamian bonefish lodges and are proud to offer:
Peace & Plenty Bonefish Lodge: Located on a peaceful peninsula ten
miles south of Georgetown, on the island of Great Exuma, P&P offers some of the best
bonefishing in the Bahamas. The fine white sand bottom and crystal clear water make this
ideal for wading or skiff fishing. Large schools of 3-6 lb bonefish provide plenty of
action for even novice fly fishermen, with occasional shots at larger bones, permit and
barracuda. Bob Hyde the fishing director at Peace & Plenty has hand picked and trained
a staff of quality flats guides. In addition to local knowledge, many are patient
instructors who can help you hone your skills. Cost: $2,221-$2,361 per week from Georgetown,
Exuma. Shorter stays available
North Riding Point Club: An exclusive new lodge on the south side of Grand Bahama that is sure to become a favorite. NRPC sits on a spectacularly beautiful, remote beach just a short drive from hundreds of square miles of virgin flats – home to large bonefish that have seldom seen a fly. Fish from trailered 16 –foot Dolphin Super Skiffs equipped with leaning posts. Stay in one of three deluxe seafront cottages, dine on gourmet food and if it all gets to be too much - take a massage. Cost: $3,080-$3,350 per week from Freeport
Andros Island Bonefish Club: If you’re after big bonefish, sooner or later you’ll fish Andros Island. The North and Middle Bights of Andros are known for their vast flats and large numbers of 5 to 7 pound bones and on most days you’ll see fish over 10 pounds. Situated at the mouth of Cargill Creek, on the east side of the island, AIBC has become a favorite with serious bonefishermen, offering clean, comfortable, air conditioned rooms and a menu featuring fresh seafood. Their experienced and knowledgeable native guides fish out of Dolphin Super Skiffs with poling platforms and 40-hp motors. According to Lefty Kreh who has fished all over the world, if he had only one day left to fish, he would spend it at Andros Island. Enough said. Cost: $2,415 per week from Andros Town with shorter stays available.
Tranquility Hill Lodge: Also located on Andros Island, Tranquilty Hill is gaining a reputation as popular bonefish lodge due in part to their outstanding guide staff, led by Ivan Neymour. In addition to being excellent guides most are accomplished fishing instructors that can help improve your score. They are flexible which means you’ll fish the best times and tides. You’ll fish the famed North and Middle Bights and ocean flats from Bowen Sound to Moxey Town. In addition to bonefish there are permit, tarpon, barracuda, snapper and sharks for a change of pace. Cost: $2,034 week from Andros Town. Shorter stays available.
