Flats Fishing in the Carribean
Flats fishing is a true test of ones desire to get punished by the fish and sun while floating or wading in paradise. Epic fish, beautiful locations and a tremendous amount of satisfaction when it all comes together. From Holbox to Belize, we are sure to bring you a great experience out on the flats.
Get ready for sun-soaked days, clear shallows, and relentless takes on the flats.
Join Mario Guel and the Taco Fly Co. crew for a hosted adventure to the Caribbean, where bonefish tail in skinny water, tarpon roll in hidden lagoons, and permit haunt the edges like ghosts. It’s sight fishing at its finest, set to a backdrop of warm breezes and island vibes.
Crystal-clear water. Endless flats.

What to expect
The Caribbean is a fly angler’s dream — crystal-clear flats, white sand, and shots at world-class species. Mornings are for hunting shadows, afternoons for salty snacks and cold beer. This isn’t your average beach vacation — it’s a full-send tropical fish mission with the Taco Fly Co. crew.
You’ll be sight fishing in gin-clear water, stalking bonefish, permit, and tarpon across endless tropical flats. Local guides know every ripple and shadow, putting you on fish with precision. This is the kind of trip where the sun’s always high, the vibes are always mellow, and the casts are always spicy.
