specifically for the saltwater fly fishing enthusiast and features the work of
gifted outdoor writers, photographers, and illustrators from around the world.
It provides vital “how-to” information, time tested tips, tales of exciting
travel destinations and conservations news. With a circulation of 53,905,
Saltwater Fly Fishing combines an extensive knowledge of the sport, a
familiarity with the world’s great saltwater destinations and a strong
conservation ethic.
On their trip to Belize, Mr. Mazur and Mr. Jennings first spent four nights in
the southern part of Belize where they were able to go fly fishing at sea and
river fishing. This gave them the opportunity of having the experience of not
only enjoying the sea breeze, but also experiencing the calmness of the river.
They spent the remaining three days in San Pedro, Ambergris Caye, where they
were able to fly fish the flats around Ambergris Caye for Permit, Bonefish, and
Tarpon (The Belize Grand Slam).
"Belize is well-known for its fishing activities and fly fishing has become a
top sport for anglers to engage in the blue pristine waters of Belize," comments
Director of Tourism, Mrs. Tracy Panton. “Visitors from abroad come to Belize to
seek the excitement of jumping a tarpon or seeking out the elusive permit
amongst other species of fishes. With this mind, most fishing in Belize is
catch-and-release as we make this a standard practice to give anglers the
opportunity to experience the breathtaking thrill of a splashing strike.”
Participating private sectors included Almond Beach & Jaguar Reef Resorts,
Machaca Hill Lodge, El Pescador Fishing Lodge, and Turneffe Flats.
