Providence Atoll, Seychelles
Our friends at Fly Castaway had a couple prime weeks become available on Providence Atoll. Providence is an amazing flats fishery, arguably the best GT fishing in the world!
5 – 12 December 2023 (NM13) (2 rods)
The week will consist of fishing the spring tides. The fishing will be around the early morning dead low tide with the low tide moving towards midday by the end of the week. These tides are great for trevally fishing with big water movements during the dropping and incoming tides. The pushing tide will be very good for GT fishing. The afternoons will be fished around the islands or offshore looking for sailfish other pelagics and milkfish.
26 March – 2 April 2024 (FM 25) (4 rods)
This week will see the tides coming off the back of the Full Moon moving onto the neap tides for the final 3 days of the week. This means we will encounter large water movement on and off the flats in the beginning of the week and less water movement towards the back end. There will be a midday low tide during the first three days meaning high water in both the morning and afternoon. During those times the water level will be too high wade the majority of the flats and we will need to look at non flats fishing options including teasing off-shore bommie bashing fishing up around the land masses in the south or north. We would also expect to see Milkfish feeding offshore during the morning dropping tide provided there isn’t too much wind. Anglers ideally need to be on point from the start of the trip as we would expect to see the larger GTs accessing the flats because of the large tides in the beginning of the week. As the water movement decreases over the last three days we would then expect to see more of the tailing species such as bones triggers and bumpies. One should be able to spend the whole day on the flats over the last three days as there is very little rise and fall in the tide. All in all not a bad tidal week with good flats time. As mentioned before anglers will need to be on point from day one as there is a good chance of seeing big GTs during the beginning of the trip.

Tide – Large tidal exchange with a low tide at noon on the first day. The morning high tide will get larger as the week goes on. Great afternoon low towards the end of the week.

Arrive – Nov 25, 2023
Fish – 3 Days
Depart – Nov 29, 2023

Tide will get slightly smaller as the week goes on and the high tide will be about 50 minutes later each day. Every minute of the day will not be ideal height for bonefish and permit but the large tidal exchange can make for exciting fishing. Bait and switch possible during high tide for jacks, snapper, etc.

Fish – 4 Days
Depart – Dec 5, 2023
Available – 8 Rods // 6 Rooms

Due to an unforeseen cancellation our friends at Alaska Steelhead Co. had six rods become available the week of September 20 – 26, 2023. This is some most consistent wild steelhead fishing we know of and an absolutely dead-center week at one of the nicest lodges out there.
