Son Steve and I would like to fly fish the AC flats for Bone fish and deeper water for tarpon in November. I'm new to this board and have yet to visit your island. And, honestly, I've found it a little strange that I have not found a significant number of posts about fly fishing on this BB. Does no one on AC fly fish? Are there no fly fishing guides there? Is there a fly shop on the island? We would just like to try some new waters this fall. If there are "real, honest to goodness, fly fishing guides there", perhaps some of the locals and lurkers on this board will share their experiences with me. Guide names, contacts, and your opinions of the trips they provided to you would truly be appreciated.

I enjoyed fly fishing with Tanisha Tours. They can be reached at Tanishtours.com or [email protected]

Lots of bone fish, tarpen, permit etc. Do a search on the top right side of this page (just under "post a poll" button) and type in "fly fishing guide". That should help you

El Pescador is one of the most famous fishing lodges in the world, located on AC, with some of the best tarpon and bonefishing imaginable; fly fishing is the preferred method. Contact them.

Many thanks 2Miles,,. You are right. There is a plethora of great info there.

In November Captain Jeff will be back here. Not sure all the types of fishing he does, but it would be worth your while to ask him. [email protected] is his email

please do use my board name capt jeff ,I am not a guide just a fishing gringo.however there was a guide down here from the midwest for a few winetermonths and I guess he is a capt of sorts but I have been using the name capt jeff for three years on the board !!!! this guy just started fishing charters here just to clear the air.there is another jeff out there ..also look up fishingsanpedro.com steve books local guides who fish here all year round ...tight lines to you..

and anyone familiar with AC can tell you there is only ONE Capt Jeff ( the non-guiding gringo) and he is THE MAN!!!

klcman thank you.just wanted to set the post right .while his name is jeff and he has a boat ,he is not me.I am the living the dream capt jeff !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, wait un momento...I thought I was DA MAN?? For flyfishing...I would contact Pete Graniels brother on the lagoon side near the old soccer field. I can't remember his first name...just ask anyone on fishermans row. He is good. Flys can be had at a premium at El Pescadore Lodge. Flyfishing guides always have their own flys...they know best what works best. A 7 or 8 weight rod would be fine for the bonefish, but you'll need at least a 10 for the tarpon. Don't forget going for the grand slam. Catch a permit...the boney and tarpon will be easier. Good luck!!
