Damn, I'm excited. Had not planned to do a trip this spring, but several of my regulars grouped up and came to me and demanded one.

Going to El Pescador Lodge on Ambergris Caye. Tons of bonefish (Belizean bonefish are smaller than most, but they're everywhere), excellent permit fishing (my personal weakness) ... but the real draw for this time and place is tarpon - lots of them - in the 50 to 150 pound range! Never caught a really big 'poon before, so I'm hoping this is the trip. Never been to the Caribbean this close to the middle of the year. Should be interesting. Not real popular because it's hot and not much wind, but good because the angling pressure is way down and ... because there's not too much wind.:rolling:

It's such a gorgeous area down there. I'm amped!

Still space left if any of ya'll want to come along!:rofl:

big poon is like riding a moped. It's a lot of fun until your friends see you doing it.

I wish I could make the trip! I've always wanted to do some kind of fishing in warm weather! I'll be in Paris for this trip, tho. Maybe some other time.
