Since late last week, I’ve been at El Pescador in Belize to help owner Ali Gentry and her staff celebrate the lodge’s 40th anniversary, which is a pretty big deal. We got in three great days of fishing, although not always catching, and enjoyed a little tropical paradise while The Big Chill set in back home.

For those of you who aren’t weekend readers, here are my posts on our adventure:

Belize, Day 1: Oh, the Things You Learn on the Flats!.

Belize, Day 2: A Slammin' Day on the Flats.

Belize, Day 3: The Needlefish and the Damage Done.


The bonefish on the flats around Ambergris Caye are just gorgeous.
