Belize Flats Fishing Expeditions (BFFE)

There's something magical about traveling everywhere by boat while using the gorgeous Caribbean Sea as your highway. Fly Fishing trips like these are an extraordinary way to see and fish Belize. The days are long and the guides will make sure to put you into a wide variety of species. Richard French owns and operates BFFE. If you want a customized fishing trip, look no further. Unlike many of the traditional fishing lodges in Belize, BFFE's guides are not clock-watchers and do not keep “bankers hours”. They enjoy fishing as much as their guests do. BFFE's customized trips are a great way to maximize your fishing time by taking advantage of 10 to 12 hour days.
