winter/spring 2009/2010
Southern Belize Fishing Packages

 



Julian Cabral, Guide
 

November brings snook and juvenile tarpon to Monkey River and the Placencia Lagoon, and mutton snapper to the docks and beaches.  Grouper signals the arrival of the holiday season.

And of course, bonefish, permit and Barracuda.  plus a variety of snappers and jacks, round out the menu as year-round staples. 

(See our Southern Belize Fishing Calendar for more information.)

So, whether you want to stalk the gray ghost, prey on the elusive permit, cast for snook and juvenile tarpon while listening for Howler Monkeys and keeping an eye out for manatees -- or just troll for some good eating fish -- Placencia may be just the place for this winter's fishing trip.
