Ascension Bay Bonefish Club is a small, well run lodge operation in the Sian Kaan Biosphere of the Yucatan Peninsula just 100 miles north of Belize. We have been in operation since 1985 and enjoy a solid repeat clientele who enjoy our service and love the diverse fishing in Ascension Bay.
All good fishing camps reflect the character and personality of their owners, managers and employees. We have been fortunate each season to have most staff members return, some since the club began. It is part of the reason that Ascension Bay Bonefish Club continues its successful tradition.
The other reason is our passion for the sport of fly fishing which has brought us together as a team. We are dedicated to providing you exceptional, intimate service. This is helped by keeping our club small with only

What really separates our fishery from most of the Caribbean is its vast diversity. Sure you will spend the majority of your time chasing Bonefish and Permit, but it is nice to options and lots of them.
TARPON: Although Tarpon are not as plentiful as in some other tropical waters, they are here, and provide some very exciting and acrobatic action. Fall is your best chance at them, however they are present the entire season. Most are baby Tarpon from 15 to 30 pounds with a few monster fish at over 80 pounds hooked each season.
SNOOK: The reclusive Snook are present in many areas of the bay. These are hard brawling fish that when not jumping, are hard to keep away from the mangroves.
BARRACUDA: The most overlooked player on the flats is the Barracuda. He is a very flashy fighter who will str View more...eak over to crush your fast moving fly, and will then leap all over the place trying to get rid of it.
JACKS: Jack Crevalle to be more precise. These brawlers would be considered a premier gamefish if it were not for their tendency to slam the first thing that hits the water near them or even right on top of them.
Bedrooms are large and airy, with overhead fans, A/C and 24 hour electricity. A full bathroom with hot-water shower is standard for each bedroom. Some are en suite while others are located just across a narrow hallway. Screened windows provide views of the Caribbean and garden as well as cross ventilation or close them down an enjoy the A/C.
