THE TRIP
 
 
Geographical Location: Mexico.
 
 
 
 
Yucatan Outfitters and Wing Shooting The World are running a new fly fishing destination for backcountry tarpon and snook fishing ideally located on Mexico's sunny Yucatan Peninsula.

Here, far away from the crowds on the "Mexican Riviera" and the boat and angler traffic in Ascension Bay, a tarpon resource exists which will delight the fly angler who rightfully-craves sight fishing-and action. Tarpon here, and also near Isla Holbox run from two to thirty pounds-perfect for the 8-weight rod or light spinning gear, and during the spring tarpon migration-the big boys are here-tarpon running 200 pounds plus cruise through these shallow waters, along with snook, bonefish, permit and barracuda.

Mayan guides who know the flats and mangroves will put you on the fish. They are solid anglers who know fly fishing, fly tying as well as conventional gear. They are all catch and release guides, so this area will have memorable fishing for years to come.

THE ANGLING
 

A tarpon trip with WSTW is a great adventure, and the daily schedule is designed to maximize time on the water when fishing conditions are best. After morning coffee has been delivered to your door, you'll enjoy a fisherman's breakfast that combines the best of American and Mexican morning favorites. Then, it is off to the boats by 8:00 am a run of ten to thirty minutes in smooth-riding fiberglass skiffs. Once you reach the fishing area, anglers take to the platform at the front of the boat while your expert guide poles the boat quietly through the mangroves and across shallow flats. Most fish are sighted before you make a cast-making for some tall drama, in short water. You'll jump tarpon, fight snook, and stalk bonefish, permit and other flats species, so bring a variety of tackle prepared for the toughest fighting and jumping fish in saltwater. Midday you'll enjoy a packed lunch on the water, with more fishing until about 3 or 4pm, when the low sun angle usually begins to make seeing difficult. Then it's a short run back to the lodge to rest and relax.

Getting There: It's easy to get to these Yucatan tarpon. Even if you live in the snow-torn northern climates, you can leave home in the morning and have an umbrella drink in your hand on the beach by mid-afternoon. You just fly to Cancun, Mexico which is served by almost every commercial carrier of note, as well as many charter airlines from almost every major US city. Cancun is a major tourist destination, so clearing customs is a breeze; once you emerge from customs, WSTW will greet you at the airport and transfer you about 3hours on paved highway in their air conditioned vans to their oceanfront lodge.

THE ACCOMMODATIONS
 
Your fishing lodging for this tarpon adventure might as well be a tropical paradise. The lodge is air conditioned and very comfortable, with clean and airy bedrooms, each with private bath. The lodge sits on the water, so sunrises and sets are spectacular. A comfortable chair on your balcony makes each evening a memory. The lodge is located in a small village, which is very clean, colorful, and friendly. It's a fishing village so our fresh-daily seafood comes from just around the corner and straight to your plate.
