The Fishing at Stafford Creek Lodge

Come with us and experience our fishing program at Stafford Creek Lodge, home of the “Against the Wind” casting technique by Capt Prescott Smith. Here at Stafford Creek Lodge we target the three main salt water fly fish, Bonefish, Tarpon and the illusive Permit. However it is not uncommon to experience, Barracuda, and Snapper amongst your “catch and release” trophies of the day. Bonefish and Tarpon fishing is a year round endeavor, with the primary months for Permit being May though early November (subject to cold fronts).

We will take you to the wilderness flats of the Joulters Cays and North West coast, fishing from high performance and comfortable Maverick skiffs. You will also have the opportunity to stalk bonefish, wading the most beautiful flats in the world. The incredible scenery and vast fishery system will leave you in awe.

Our fishing days start early, allowing valuable fishing time on the flats. We plan the day according to the tides, the weather, and the fish, not by the clock. Our experienced guides will have you on the best flats casting to fish in no time. We leave each morning either from the dock here at the lodge or will trailer our top of the line skiffs a short distance to the northern Joulters Cays in our comfortable vehicles.

Deep Sea Option 
In addition to world-renowned flats fishing, we are pleased to offer our clients the option of deep fishing for Dorado and other non-flats species. You will fish from our comfortable 26 foot ocean craft, fully equipped with state-of-the art Garmin navigation equipment and ship-to-shore communications. Anglers may use fly fishing techniques or use conventional tackle. The additional rate (see rate sheet) includes captain/guide, all conventional tackle, live bait and a full lunch (maximum of two anglers).
