Great Belize Fishing
Even though they do not have much fancy equipment, these locals had their whole lives
to spend mastering their skills. They can lead you to a good catch! Snook, tarpon, jack
and machaka (a local species) can be found in the Placencia Lagoon. Fishing is best late
in the evening or very early in the morning.

Half an hour away by boat is the Monkey River. It is another spot for snooks, tarpon and
jacks. For those who have serious passion for permits, Punta Ycacos is the perfect
place. The mangrove lagoons of Punta Ycacos houses big permits. Tarpons can be a
good catch here too. The lagoon can be reached by water. It is an hour and a half away
from the ports of Placencia. It is recommended to camp in the area for the best
Belize
fishing
experience at Punta Ycacos.

To cap off your fishing adventure, another
Belize fishing spot is the Glover’s reef. It is
about 70 miles southeast of Belize City and about two and a half hours away from
Placencia by boat. The atoll was named after the pirate John Glover. All cayes except
North East Caye have been considered as conservation areas. Species that can be seen
within the reserve are tuna (black-fin and yellow-fin), king mackerel, barracuda, jacks,
grouper and snapper. Permits can also be seen in area coral flats alongside bonefish.
There are rules, however, when fishing within the reef.

Outside the reef, anglers can still enjoy their Belize fishing adventure. Here they can find
snappers, grouper, tuna, barracuda, Wahoo, mackerel, marlin, sailfish and Dorado
among many others. Truly, Belize is a heaven for sport fishing!

If you are up for a spectacular fishing adventure, Belize may be
just the place for you. A mecca for anglers, the waters of Belize is a
host to many species of fish. It is home to bonefish, tarpon, snook,
jacks, barracuda, grouper, snapper, sailfish, marlin, bonito and
African pompano. Anglers can even push their luck on one of the
great catches – the elusive permit.
One of the important stops for a great
Belize fishing
adventure is the Placencia
village. Placencia village is located at the
end of the Placencia Peninsula which
can be reached either by air or by road. A
number of boat dock, dive shops and
tour guide services can be found here.

Long before, Placencia village was but a
fishing village but when tourism started,
many locals concentrated more on
guiding tourists. Placencia fly fishing
tour guides have been well-known to be
the best guides in Belize.
