Explore the coast of Belize with Fly Fishing in Hopkins. Captain Jaime has been fishing since he was a kid and knows all there is about catching fish in this area. He’s still as passionate about his job as the day he started and loves to teach other people how to fish. Join the captain who can teach you a lot and take your skill to the next level.

The boat you’ll be fishing from is a 25’ Argo that accommodates up to 6 guests. This simple and stable boat has everything you’ll need for your day on the water - a cooler, rods, reels, lures, and navigational electronics. For all guests who enjoy swimming in crystal clear water, there’s also snorkeling gear available.

Fly fishing is usually considered an advanced technique but anyone can learn it with a bit of patience and practice. This is how you’ll catch some of the most beautiful species that inhabit shallow water, such as Permit, Tarpon, Snook, and Bonefish. If you’re more into trolling and bottom fishing, you can go after Kingfish, Amberjack, Barracuda, Spanish Mackerel, Snapper, and Grouper.

All trips are family-friendly adventures you can share with your kids, even if they are too young to catch the fish themselves. After the trip, the crew will share the catch with you and clean it. They also cover your fishing license, equipment, and drinking water.

Fly Fishing in Hopkins is at your service year-round. Choose the date and start your adventure! If you fish with us for two days, you get one day free.

Outstanding Fishing Experience with Captain Fishing Charters – Hopkins, Belize
Half Day River & Lagoons Fishing on December 17, 20252 adults
I had an incredible half-day river and lagoon charter with Captain Fishing Charters out of Hopkins, Belize, and it exceeded every expectation. Fishing light spinning tackle, we enjoyed nonstop action with numerous snook, jacks, and tarpon hookups, capped off with an exciting barracuda as well. The variety of species and the productivity of the water made for a truly memorable outing. What set this trip apart even more was the hospitality. The infectious smile and genuine joy of the mate—and Captain's Jamie's wife—Rose made the day feel special from start to finish. Their deep local knowledge of the rivers and lagoons, and how to fish them effectively, was impressive, but it was only dwarfed by how warm, welcoming, and engaging they were as hosts. If you're looking for an authentic Belizean fishing experience with excellent action, expert local insight, and truly wonderful people, Captain Fishing Charters is an easy and enthusiastic recommendation. I will be back!

Half Day River & Lagoons Fishing on December 10, 20254 adults1 child
Jaime and Rosa were absolutely amazing today. This was a last minute trip booking while in Belize with family. I come from a long history of fishing but a few of my family members that fished with us have very little experience. He did not care about the tangles or knots even the accidental line in the prop. Not one time did he get upset. Not only did we land fish my son also landed a cuda which made my day! His wife rosa was so great with my young son which I appreciated that more than she knows. I am already planning on returning for a trip just for fly fishing on the flats and without hesitation i will be contacting Jaime!

Great Fishing Experience
Full Day Inner Reef Fishing & Troll on October 1, 20254 adults
We fished 2 days with Jaime and Rosa. We caught fish both days with a diversity of methods. The first day, we trolled the inner reef and dropped some bait lines. I cant even count how many fish we caught. There were 4 people in our group and everyone caught multiple fish. The second day, Jaime rigged up a fly rod and took us to the flats where we waded for Permit and Boone Fish. Once again, he delivered and we caught some some Boone Fish. After fly fishing, we went to deeper water and did more trolling. We caught a variety of larger fish including snapper, barracuda, jack, and yellowtail. Overall, it was a great experience!

Outstanding day on the water
Full day river & lagoons fishing on February 27, 20252 adults
Captain Jaime and his wife, Rosa, greeted us warmly in the morning, extending their hospitality right away—even ensuring our bicycles were safely locked up (though it wasn't really necessary). From the moment we hit the water, Jaime's lifetime of experience fishing these waters became clear. He immediately put us on the fish, and the action lasted an incredible 7 ½ hours. My wife not only landed her first snook but also her 20th. As for me, I managed to pull off a Belizean grand slam—reeling in snook, tarpon, and permit. By the end of the day, our arms were exhausted, and we had caught enough snook to feed the village. An unforgettable day on the water with great company and even better fishing!

Full Day fishing & Snorkelling on March 30, 20254 adults
Our family of four booked four days of fishing/snorkeling with Captain Jamie and could not of been happier! We hope to be back to Hopkins, Belize and would hands down book him again. He is a very knowledgeable fishing guide with years of experience. He is excellent at reading the weather and water. He is easy to work with and ethical. He takes guest safety very seriously. We loved meeting and fishing with his wife Rose. Most importantly he was able to get us on multiple fish every day! We had a couple of days that were too windy to go out to the reef but Captain Jamie was able to still take us to a Lagoon where we caught Snook and Tarpon. Reef fishing and snorkeling for conch was fabulous. Captain Jamie was always amendable to catering to our needs. Fishing and snorkeling with Captain Jamie made our trip to Belize!!
