    Caught HUGE barracuda in just a half-day, Grayson is the best guide in the area

    Half Day Trip on March 23, 2026 • 4 adults

    My wife and I booked this trip on a whim while we were in town on vacation. Although we have done quite a lot of lake fishing we would describe ourselves as amateur anglers, and Captain Grayson made it incredibly easy for us. He supplied all gear, all we had to do is show up on time. It was windy and warm the morning we went out so we opted for the lagoon during our half-day trip, that way we weren't battling the waves. Grayson new exactly where we would catch, and recommended we target snook next to the mangroves on this particular day, as they are a very delicious fish. It wasn't long until we hooked into multiple snooks and jacks and had them in the cooler. We continued to troll and all of a sudden BAM a huge hit on my wife's line and a sizable fish started taking out line. Grayson figured it was a sizable snook, that is until the fish jumped and he saw it was a huge barracuda! We were not fishing with steel leads as we weren't going for cuda, however Grayson had us quickly change retrieval tactics and coaxed the fish in. Within 5 minutes the 20 pound fish was at the bottom of our boat! The catch of a lifetime for my wife and I and a totally unexpected thrill. We ended midday and Grayson got everything fileted up and in baggies for us. The rest of our group was treated to fresh barracuda for the rest of our trip! He even gave some recommendations on how to prepare it, Belizean-style! Our catch was somewhat abnormal, however Captain Grayson knows where and how to catch anything you're looking for. Book and let him know what you're looking for and he'll make it happen!

    Had a great trip

    Full Day Trip on March 31, 2026 • 4 adults

    Very knowledgeable and helpful with the kids. Put in locations where the fish were. We did inshore fishing in the Mangroves for Tarpon, snook, and Jacks. Easy fishing for the kids and kept em busy casting. On any given cast you could catch a big Tarpon, snook, or Jack. We all caught some fish, and my son hit a 30# JC on a topwater spook. Got a solid 20 min fight out of it and I'm not sure who was more excited my son or Greyson!! Greyson, is a great guy as well Thank you Greyson

    Best trip ever!!!!!!!!!!

    Full Day Trip on August 26, 2026 • 2 adults

    We caught so many fish from trolling for Spanish mackerel to anchoring next to reefs and pulling in lane snapper, grouper, yellow fin snapper and porgy for hours. Captain Grayson was amazing bringing us strait to the fish and educating us about the sea and tides. Best trip ever!!

    Great Day with Grayson!

    Half Day Trip on December 19, 2025 • 2 adults

    Grayson was a joy to be with. He had to navigate around some bad weather but he still found me some great fish. He really does a good job of teaching you how to land the different types of fish you catch. Oh, he’s an accomplished artist as well! Its a big, wide world but if I ever make it back to Placencia I’m fishing with Grayson again!

    Great Captain in a great location!

    Half Day Trip on March 4, 2026 • 4 adults

    Captain Grayson is an awsome Captain! He made adjustments to the schedule because of heavy sargassom grass, and worked hard to get us on fish all morning. On a tough morning he put us on tarpon, snook and jack. dont miss an opportunity to fish with this Captain.

    A good day on the water

    Half Day Trip on October 20, 2026 • 3 adults

    Capt Grayson has a great personality, was very accommodating, got us going with bait but let us do things ourselves after catching a few snappers. He did have a issue where the reel slipped away from the rod seat but managed to quickly tie it onto the rod. We caught fish in 3 separate locations he took us to.

    Grayson contacted me the day before to inform us on the weather and talk about personalizing our trip. It’s not the peak season for fishing in Belize but he put us on the fish quick while the tide was running. Caught 5 different species, but missed a large tarpon that spit the hook. Grayson was funny, knowledgeable, and just overall a nice guide.

    Grayson guided us straight to schools of tarpon on the flats. We hooked four but were unable to land the very large tarpon. It was a great time and Grayson did his best to make it a great day of fishing! Sasoned saltwater fly fishermen should book with him. make sure you bring loots of sunscreen and cover up. The sun is inntense by mid morning.
