Locnar Posted December 30, 2015 Report Share Posted December 30, 2015 I'm headed to Utila Island, Honduras for a month in a few days. I'm going to bring a fishing rod and some tackle. Anyone been there and tried fishing there? I hear they have bonefish, permit, grouper, snappers... even tarpon in the shallows and lagoons. Any tips on lures or live bait?

captpierre Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Can't go wrong with heavy line, 1-2 oz pyramid weights, assortment of larger hooks. Dropshot with any meat you can find. Maybe smaller stuff to catch bait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 A medium power spinning outfit, some braid and 20-30lb flouro leader will be great for stalking the flats or fishing from shore. Live shrimp will be your best bet.. That type of fishing doesn't have to be heavy duty, takes a lot of the fun out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
