Windy weather reduced the amount of available open water to start the week, but lots of options were open by the end. Lots of anglers took home pins for landing snook on the fly. Matson scored the first Grand Slam of the year with Capt. Junior!

Windy weather reduced the amount of available open water. Fishing in the lee of the mangroves produced many tarpon and snook. Fishing the west side of Ambergris Caye and smaller cayes produced bones and permit and offered wade fishing opportunities.

The first cold front of the 2018/2019 winter season produced strong northwest winds, cloudy days and cooler than normal temps. Anglers and guides were able to put together some good days by moving and adapting to the weather and water conditions. El Pescador Lodge was happy to host a fly fishing and photography workshop by Yellow Dog Outfitters featuring well known outdoor photographers Jim Klug and Bryan Gregson.
