It was a great week of fishing, and I plan on turning it into a yearly trip.

Belize Flats Fishing Report by Ben Stevens

FISHING REPORT

Angler: Ben Stevens
Date: January 11th, 2020
Trip Taken: Saltwater Fly Fishing in Belize
Fishing Consultant: Patrick Kissel with Outdoors International

We had a great time saltwater fishing down in Belize!

Stayed at the fishing lodge in Belize for a week and it was a great experience. There is so much opportunity around the area, either guided fishing trips or do it yourself opportunities. The lodge handled all of scheduling and were very willing to accommodate any request.

The lodge itself was very comfortable and clean, and also right on the waterfront.

The food was excellent and was almost all traditional Belize style meals. They also had kayaks, paddle boards and golf carts at the ready for all the transportation needs for your fishing adventure. Large numbers of bonefish around and also permit mixed in. Tarpon were around as well! It was a great week, and I plan on turning it into a yearly fishing trip.

There's a reason I keep booking this steelhead fishing trip!
Second time I’ve done this particular trip. The steelhead run was awesome! The food was even better than the first time, which is hard to imagine, and our guide is the best there is! If catching big fish is your thing I highly recommend booking through Outdoors International.

I expected big trout on this trip based on all the stories I've read over the years, and I was not disappointed! I broke my own personal best rainbow trout record at least SIX times on this trip, with the biggest being a 16 pound beauty.

I will be going again soon!
