Our destination is beautiful Belize for the ultimate challenge on a fly rod – Permit! With celebrated guide, Wil Flack, owner of the Belize Permit Club. Belize is a top destination for Permit with over 250 square miles of flats and the world’s second-largest barrier reef. A British Columbia native, Wil’s has fished all over the world and has been living and guiding in Belize for the past 15 years. He gives us a great rundown on Belize from top to bottom and explains why it’s a special kind of angler who dares to chase the ghost of flats fishing. Also, technical aspects of Permit fishing, Will’s top fly picks, and a great story of jungle rats and Payara in Venezuela.
