THE BEST BENEFITS

LODGE INFORMATION

The Fishing

Bonefish

Given the cool, deep waters that Grand Bahama is surrounded by, visitors will find bonefish here that are far larger than those found in other parts of the Caribbean and Atlantic. Bonefish tend to average between five and six pounds, however, fish as large as ten+ pounds can be found here on a daily basis. These fish can be picky, and long leaders and well presented flies are a necessity for success.

Permit

The permit in this region range between 15 and 25 pounds and when the weather is good, you may even get a chance at fish weighing 30 pounds or more. Due to the relatively modest fishing pressure in the location, there are times when the permit react to the fly aggressively.

Our Equipment

16-foot Dolphin Super Skiffs that have 85HP Yamaha outboard motors are run by the team of guides at East End Lodge. These include push-poles, poling platforms, “U-bars” for leaning, storage for rods, cushioned seats and coolers that are loaded with the lunch of your choice.
