You’ll experience the famous Belize flats, as well as its amazing offshore fishing opportunities. Whether you want to tango with your first Tarpon or battle against a mighty Wahoo, you’ll put your skills to the test. Other species you can expect to target include Mahi Mahi, Amberjack, Mutton Snapper, Barracuda, Black Grouper, and many more.

Everything you need is included in the price – fishing rods and reels, lures, bait, and even your fishing license. On full-day trips, lunch and drinks are included as well. The top-notch service doesn’t end there – the crew will happily fillet and cook your catch for you after the trip.

A Barracuda Day!

VERIFIED

Full Day Trip on January 21, 2025

Went out with Grayson …morning we hit the Barracuda’s hard or they hit the bait hard… lots of action in the am..we had weather come in on us so we hid behind a small Island to get out of the waves …rain and wind…ate some lunch and we were back at it …it appears other boats went in due to the weather but we stayed out…after a while the seas settled down and we were getting some impressive hits on the rods…filled up quite a bit of the larger cooler…Grayson knows the area well… which if you aren’t knowledgeable out there you can get into trouble quickly…he knows how to run the edge of the reef and pull fish off and over to our bait…most times he said this stretch of water we are working should be good and it was great! Anyways fishing with Grayson is fun and enjoyable…I’d definitely recommend him for anyone who wants to get into fish… he really gets excited when the rods get hit hard! …oh and the boat just got reworked (looks nice) and he run a 100 hp Yamaha off the back so he can fly across the swells… you just have to hang on !

Full Day Trip on December 30, 2024

Word of warning...don't attempt to fish alone with Grayson . I was by myself with two Rods to take care of. Too much. I couldn't have a cup of coffee...cracking a beer was out of the question. The action was that fast. King and Spanish Mackerel. A few Bonito for bait. Of course I lost the biggest fish of the day...watching that line scream out." Worried about being spooled...How much line is on here Grayson?!!? In the afternoon he put me on some stud Cuda. Intense! I've fished a few places around the globe...I'll never forget fishing with this young man. Couldn't possibly recommend it higher. Damn I'm tired. Thanks buddy!!

I haven’t touched a fly rod in 3+ years. My wife fishes seldom. Grayson had everything we needed and put us on Tarpon of a lifetime. I personally couldn’t seal the deal. Here is what to expect, great fishing experience. A guide who has roamed these waters for his entire life, and a sick boat that can handle a windy day. I’m not easily impressed because I have traveled the world doing outdoor adventures for a living. But this experience with Grayson was Epic. 10/10 Can’t wait to do it again.

My first experience with Fishing Booker. Was very please of their professionalism. I requested Waata Daag Fishing Adventures cause I knew the Captain Grayson Sierra from previous years .

Best Fishing Trip & Guide

VERIFIED

Half Day Trip on December 24, 2024

Grayson did an amazing job putting us on the fish, and we loaded the boat the entire time. Caught giant barracuda’s, jacks, bonitos, and mackerels. If you’re serious about catching fish he will get you on the big ones! He gave also gave our boys great fly fishing tips. Grayson is definitely the best fishing guide in Placencia. Thank you for a great half day on the water!

I grew up in a fishing village, so the influence was always there, especially from my dad. They say "do what you love and you will never work a day in your life." Fishing is my favorite thing to do especially when you put someone on their dream catch!
