| Please note
that we do not supply fishing equipment, and there is very little
sold on the Island. Bring plenty of flies, if you do not tie
flies or do not intend to bring fly tying equipment. |
|
| The
pristine sand flats of the Exumas provide what can only be described
as a class destination for a Bonfishing vacation. It is not
unusual to see schools of 300 Bonefish, is rare during a days
fishing not to see a fish of 10lbs+, of course it is up to the
angler to catch one of these large fish, which on occasions
can be very shy. |
| The
Cays is ideally located for Bonefishing, being situated in an
area that has been rarely fished or even visited. The adjacent
Cays and Islands also extend some 15 miles Westward, and most
have flats, both large and small in the near vicinity. |
| The
fishing is tidal dependent, and when the water is high and clients
cannot wade, our Guides will fish the numerous Creeks and Mangrove
margins where Bonefish take up station during high tide periods.
It is also not unusual to see a rolling Tarpon, so bring the
Cockroaches and other Tarpon flies. Permit are also seen on
occasions so a crab pattern or two would be a useful addition
to the fly box. |
| Bonefishing
packages at The Cays include, a complementary car for the duration
of a visit, and of course the convenience of our bar, grill
and pool. We will ensure you are met at the airport either by
a Taxi Driver or with your car, and shown the way to The Cays,
where you will be met by the owner Norman Wells, and if they
are not fishing. the Guides, to discuss your impending fishing
days. |
| Our
Guides are very experienced, many with a 2nd or even 3rd generation
family guiding history, and have extensive local knowledge,
usually being able to find fish, even in the most difficult
conditions. Guides will pick up clients at 8am each morning,
usually leaving from the Dock at The Cays, but on occasions
to travel to a different venue |
| During
the course of your stay at The Cays, you can upgrade one or
more days to sample the excellent Blue Water fishing that is
available around the Exuma Cays. You can expect to find, Barracuda,
Wahoo, Yellowfin Tuna, King Mackerel, Spanish Mackerel, Jacks
of various varieties,and the occasional Sailfish, or if really
fortunate a White Marlin. Our Captain is extremely experienced
and has spent the last 20 years fishing in various locations
in the Bahamas, and especially in the Exuma area. |
