The fishing

At Bair’s Lodge, the fishing experience is designed to put you on the legendary flats of South Andros Island, where you’ll find some of the world’s best bonefishing waters. These flats are expansive and unpressured, offering opportunities for trophy-sized bonefish and large schools, providing exciting action for anglers of all skill levels.

 

Bonefishing in the Bahamas with expert guiding

South Andros’s unique geography combines shallow sand flats, mangrove nurseries, and tidal creeks, creating an ideal environment for bonefish. Here, our seasoned guides offer expert insight and personalized attention to help you master the art of spotting and stalking these elusive fish in varying conditions.

Fishing at Bair’s is flexible, with tides and weather determining the optimal times and spots to fish each day. Our guides are not only skilled in traditional flats fishing but also in various techniques, helping you navigate the waters and adjust to conditions as they change. Whether wading on firm, white-sand flats or fishing from the bow of a skiff, you’ll have an immersive experience designed to maximize your chances of success. And while bonefish are the main attraction, there are also opportunities to target other species like barracuda and permit for added adventure.

Back at the lodge, unwind with a drink and share your stories from the day, all in the company of fellow anglers. At Bair’s Lodge, the fishing is as extraordinary as the setting, bringing you an unforgettable experience in one of the world’s premier bonefishing destinations.
