Interesting but I'm not a tropics person. Prefer the mountains and/or the cold. I breathe easier in those environments.
Nice!
Looks like a miserable time

Looks like an awesome trip for sure!
This winter has been almost as cold as normal, I'd still call it pretty mild in comparison.

Looks awesome, and I am jealous. Always enjoyed fishing Belize, and El Pescador is a nice operation

Looks awesome. Please tell me that dry bag & fly case were all you took so I can show my wife she doesn't need 2 tons of stuff for one night away from home.

It was. I had my fishing stuff and extra clothes as padding in the case. Then personal items and electronics in the dry bag. It was nice not having to worry about a checked bag.
I'm jealous!!!
That is one way to fix it. Congrats to you, hope you have a great time, which I think goes without saying. Thanks for sharing these updates and pics, they bring back memories. My wife and I got married on Ambergris Caye. Great adventures and unbelievable food.
Looks like a great trip!

Hey BB,
Quick question. Anybody mention the cardiologist that got murdered down there about 2 years ago while bonefishing with a guide. Both shot.

They did. Keep in mind, that this is all second hand hearsay because none of it is proven and no-one was arrested.Hey BB,

Supposedly the guide was having a relationship with a younger woman. This woman had a boyfriend the guide didn't know about and they'd both been in lots of trouble with the law in the past. The rumor is that the boyfriend's gang members killed the guide and his client with the intent that the woman was going to get his possessions. Then the boyfriend was going to take over guiding. The cardiologist just happened to be on the boat when this all happened.
It seems pretty far fetched, but when being a fishing guide puts you into the upper class in a poor country, it may have some merit.

I kind of wish I'd spent some more time enjoying the place. I met my guide (Kech) on the dock each morning at 6:00, so breakfast was a burrito the kitchen brought out to me, and lunch was a chicken salad wrap. We were always one of the last groups back, so I had enough time to get cleaned up, grab a beer at the bar, visit for a little with the other fishermen, eat supper and go to bed. Supper was always fantastic. I was there to fish, and that I did.
