If you are looking for a day of relaxation and fun, but don’t want to break the bank, there is no better way to spend it than fishing inside the reef.You don’t have to go far to fill the cooler with yummy pan sized snapper; you can even do it from a kayak. The locals like to employ the method of “hand-lining” where they simply use fishing line, lead and a hook. ( No Rod ) They chuck it out there and hold on!! This is allot of fun and works well for smaller fish but I recommend a rod and reel in case the big one hits.
If you want the big ones I they can be caught right inside the reef. They can be found all along the barrier reef but there are also lots of cave systems and cenotes in Belize, many of which can be found around the island of
Ambergris Caye, giving the opportunity to land the big one. On any given day you will find snapper, grouper, large jacks, barracudas and at times even the big goliath Grouper.
Fly fisherman come from all parts of the world for the opportunity to hit the “grand slam.” To hook up on Tarpon, Permits and Bonefish on the same day is not a rare occurrence.
The perfect way to spend a day!!!
