Superb video, brings back great memories of fishing there. You totally capture the essence of fishing for permit in that bay. Good to see you’re alive and well in this crazy world. Really enjoyed our day out in the boat, hopefully be back again one day..
That was a well-earned fish Nick. I have fished a similar stretch of flat nearby and seen permit on several occasions, but they still elude me ... perhaps the most frustrating fish that there is. Thanks for uploading, as it's given me renewed confidence.
thank you Steve. having the confidence to just go..... is very important. Otherwise you cannot catch anything!! The more you head out the more you learn to back yourself and your instincts and the more the skills get honed. I was just out there again. Was casting on fish in under 5mins - had a dozen shots in 2 hrs. No eats.... but some close calls - and lots of fun. Tight lines!
Wow great catch, I fly fish back in UK so to see you do that from the shore in Antigua is amazing. I'm in Antigua, I've got some fishing spots but do you mind telling me which bay that is please, would be great to get there early. :)
Are they there all year round like that, just in the summer months or , just passing thru? Anyway, great vid. Could you tell what they were feeding on?
Though we have permit all year.... I believe there is a land crab spawning cycle during the summer months that these permit particularly cue in on. Whatever they were eating was pretty small. I got 2 eats on a tan bead chain grand slam crab - but who knows what they were really into that day?? Thanks so much!!

Great video
As I sit here at my desk, making Permit leaders for my trip to Belize next week, I can't help but think this video is delicious!
So glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Wishing you lots of luck in Belize....
What part are you headed?
@@captainantiguanick Ambergris to El Pescador
I love that " Happy dance" once you hooked up. The tug is the drug!! Tight lines!!
So awesome! What a morning. Would you be willing to share locations on Antigua for the visiting self-guided angler?
Awesome! Working to get back down to Antigua to fish with you again Capt Nick.
Sounds great Tony! Look forward to seeing you again!! 👍😎🎣
