  • Bonacca tells the story of a few Honduran fly fishing guides from the Bay Island of Guanaja. In 1998, Hurricane Mitch ravaged Guanaja, and the natives were stripped of nearly everything, including almost 95% of their mangrove population which was a vital habitat to their fishery. In Mitch's wake, an already struggling economy found it difficult to rebuild.

    Perhaps things have changed since our time there. We spent our honeymoon at a little resort on the northwest end of the island. Landed on a gravel strip, met the resort host at captain Al’s thirst and last stop and boated to the resort. Didn’t see a vehicle at the time, spent 7 days there and quite a bit of time wandering their main area of commerce. Did catch “bones” and had a great time mixing with the locals. Experience of a lifetime.

    nice i lived in savannah bight for about a year and would trek over to mangrove bight occasionally. it really is one of those rare places where it's still very untouched by tourism and such. the people there are almost always friendly and there's awesome food because it's all stuff they grow or kill and they know how to cook it. the coral is pretty undamaged and snorkeling/diving is FANTASTIC. i find myself longing to go back after all these years

      @@permitfisher we’re you on the south side of the island with all the bonefish? The south side is juiced with fish. I got to stay at flyfish guanaja and it was insane the guides were awesome. Caught my first bonefish up near northeast bight. It was a solid 9-10 lb. Had so many shots at permit but they would follow up to the boat but just wouldn’t eat. Tides were not good. I highly recommend staying at fly fish guanaja if the conditions are right you will get on your permit.

    He says they are really poor, in my opinion they’re the richest people in the world. Look at what they got what we wouldn’t give to live in those conditions and surroundings. I don’t have much materially, but when is that ever added any real quality of life. This is where we should be sending our donations…..
