TRAVEL WITH US

OUR FAVORITE DESTINATIONS

Interested in fly fishing for bonefish in Belize, permit in Ascension Bay, or Giant Trevally on Christmas Island? Perhaps you have another species, or exotic locale you are interested in? The staff at the Idaho Angler has a great deal of experience in exotic fishing travel, and we can help you experience it. In fact, we love to talk about it, so if you are interested, contact us. We help Idaho Angler customers travel in two ways: First, we have built relationships with a number of lodges and can help you book your trip to these lodges.
Second, each year the Idaho Angler conducts a few “hosted” group trips. On a “hosted trip”, one of the Idaho Angler principals or staff member organizes and leads the trip. Trips can vary from six to twelve anglers depending on the location. The advantage of having an experienced Idaho Angler staff member leading the trip is that we are available to assist you in your preparations and during your stay. We are available to advise and assist you with any questions you may have regarding tackle, casting, and general fishing information. Our expertise will help ensure that your travel experience is relaxing, enjoyable, and one of which you will have fond memories. Following are some of the travel destinations we recommend and book. Contact us for more information.

INTRODUCING FINATICAL FLYFISHING

We’d like to introduce you to Finatical Flyfishing; a new company offering hosted women’s flyfishing travel both in the western United States and internationally. It was founded by Steph Albano. She has traveled and fished in Chile, Alaska, the Bahamas, Mexico, Cuba, the Seychelles, Belize, Christmas Island, Hawaii and throughout the continental United States. Whenever possible Finatical Flyfishing partners with leading women guides to offer women’s trips for all levels of anglers. (Some of those guides include Karlie Roland, Julie Meissner, Jill Clark, Amanda Bauman and Patty Reilly…. just to name a few.) Trips are filling up fast and you can find details at www.finaticalflyfishing.com. If you have not booked a saltwater trip for winter there are three spots left March 6-12, 2022 in Ascension Bay.

CHRISTMAS ISLAND

Classic, famous bonefish location with miles of easily wadable flats, but increasingly popular for its giant trevally fishing. Consistent year round weather and fishing. New smaller lodge with excellent guides. This is a good trip for the novice or experienced saltwater angler.

ROYAL AGUA BOA LODGE

On the Agua Boa River, a clear water tributary to the Amazon River, this is a truly classy fishing operation. Peacock bass fishing in clear water, with plenty of large fish. An incredible jungle with wildlife all around you. You’ll never forget the howler monkeys (or the explosive fights of the bass).

LOS ROQUES, VENEZUELA

This is a captivating island lodge miles off the coast of Venezuela. Miles of classic bonefish wading flats in an incredibly beautiful setting. Los Roques is a classic atoll. Large (4 to 6 pound) bonefish are common, and much larger fish (the lodge record is 13 pounds) are around. Prime time: March and October.

CASA BLANCA LODGE

Located at the south edge of Ascension Bay, off the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. This small island, far away from the tourist trails, is a premier saltwater destination. The waters abound with plentiful bonefish, and it is also one of the best locations in the world to pursue permit. Tarpon and snook can also be targeted. This is an American owned, classy, comfortable lodge.

BULKLEY RIVER

One of the finest steelhead locations anywhere, with great runs of huge fish, classic fly water, and great guides. Fishing on more than 80 miles of river with pristine canyon overnight stays. Spey rods, skating, flies, and BIG steelhead. We love this place.

ALASKA

We can book a number of lodges for rainbows and/or salmon. Tell us what you’re interested in, and we’ll make some recommendations. Alaska lodges come in all shapes and sizes, some excellent, some pretty bad. We only work with quality lodges that cater to fly fishermen.

TURNEFFE FLATS

On an island off the coast of Belize. Also American owned and operated, with a very comfortable classy lodge. Relatively easy to catch and plentiful bonefish, a great permit fishery, and tarpon too.
