Target Species
Ascension Bay is a massive protected wilderness area home to large populations of
permit, bonefish, tarpon, snook and many other flats species that can all be caught
on the fly. There are many different ecosystems to explore from seemingly endless
permit flats to backcountry mangrove lagoons filled with snook and tarpon.
Our expert guide teams lead anglers into this fishing paradise each day in search of
their target species. Each guide team is composed of a senor guide and a junior
guide who work together throughout the day managing the boat and assisting
anglers in spotting and landing fish. Typically, the senor guide is in charge of
maneuvering the boat and spotting fish from the polling platform in back, while the
junior stands with the angler up front and assists with line management and
spotting the fish. All of our guides are able to communicate in English and they are
all really good people.
Fishing Program
The typical fishing day begins at 8am, although that often changes due to weather,
tides, or fish activity. Each morning the guides will meet anglers at the lodge and
assist them to their boats. Before fishing, we will discuss the options for the day
with the guides. While most anglers come to Ascension Bay to chase permit on the
flats, there are many other species and habitats in the bay to explore and it is
important that the guides and anglers are on the same page about what the
expectations are for the day.
Once on the water, the guides and anglers will make the run into the bay.
Ascension Bay is enormous and the initial run from the lodge can take anywhere
between 15 minutes to 1 hour depending on what species you’re after where your
guide decides to start the day. Typically, the guides will move to several different
spots throughout the day in the search for fish.
