Fishing Belize : Fish Species : Fishing Equipment
Fishing equipment
As a fisherman going to Belize, you should consider bringing your own equipment. The flats in Belize (and there are a few) are a great place to catch bonefish, barracuda and jack. Bring a lot of lures with you, as coral and big fish will surely claim a few from you.
Recommended equipment includes: 8-weight rod best, 9-ft. length. Bringing an extra one is a good idea. Use a marine floating line with 10-15 pound leaders. Make sure you have a saltwater compatible reel and over 200 feet of backing. |

Suggested flies: Crazy Charlies, Mc Crab, Clouser, and remember to bring bonefish leaders.
Now that you know about the basic fishing equipment, the one thing you'll want to be sure to have is sunscreen and polarized sunglasses, because the sun reflecting off the water in Belize will burn you and blind you before you know it!
