Here’s a great episode of The New Fly Fisher, with Tom and host Mark Melnyk traveling to southern Belize to fly-fish for the big-three flats species–bonefish, permit, and tarpon. They fish in a variety of conditions and types of water and offer plenty of advice on gear, tactics, and fish-fighting strategy.
For more how-to info on flats fishing, check out more than 20 short video lessons on the Orvis Fly Fishing Learning Center.

Hi Phil. We are a new fishing charter company out of Rio Dulce Guatemala for saltwater action off the Belize coast. Is there any chance you can help promote us in your blogs? Our website is up and will give you an idea about what we are up to. We want to enhance the fishing opportunities and make it known in the United States that this is a great way to get to the Caribbean fish and see more of this beautiful country at the same time. Our fishing trips are full service, from airport and back again.
Thanks for your thoughts, Kari Lyn, Business Manager of Zach Trips.
What’s the link to your website?
That was fun!
Mark refers to chaffing on the leader while reeling in the tarpon. What is he referring to?
Thank you!
