FISHING:
Belize is known as a top destination for sport fishermen from around the world. The variety of different species as well as the numerous types of tackle used provides a wide selection
of activities for both the novice and the expert fishermen.
South Water Caye is an Angler's Paradise. Behind the island spreads a large lagoon full of coral reefs and seagrass beds. Huge schools of bonefish spread out over the lagoon.
Tailing these large bonefish schools will provide hours of fly-rod action a few steps out of your room. Bonefish can normally be caught in the shallows from November to March.
Your experienced guides can take you to visit neighboring flats in the mangrove and by the Sittee river mouth for Snook, Permit and Tarpon. Tarpon is most abundant from
February through August in the many rivers along the coast.
Deep-sea fishing for big game fish is a favorite at Blue Marlin lodge. In fact, the name for the lodge came from a blue marlin caught right in front of the island by the lodge owners
before the lodge was even operational. Besides blue marlin, there are many other oceanic species that can be caught right off the island, including yellowfin and blackfin tuna,
mackerel, bonito, wahoo, white marlin and sailfish. Most of these oceanic species can be caught year around at the Blue Marlin Lodge.
Reef fishing is good year around also. Barracuda is a guaranteed catch near the edges of the reef crest along many of the cuts through the barrier reef. Other species frequenting
the reefs of the lagoon are grouper, snappers, and many different species of jacks.
Blue Marlin's experienced fishing guides can arrange for various angling adventures.
Whether you're deep sea fishing or fly fishing the flats, Blue Marlin is rigged to handle the request.
You can also expect to eat what you catch. The cooks at the Blue Marlin Lodge
are use to waiting for the catch of the day to come in before preparing your evening dinner.
 Remember that all the joy and fun associated with the oceans can be found here at Blue Marlin Lodge.
Any kind of fishing - spin, fly or trolling - can be enjoyed year around. The abundance and variety of fish guarantees that you will have an excellent time sport
fishing. Some of our guest have left saying that ...it is impossible to go fishing in Belize without catching something".
