Tranquility Hill
Guide: Frankie
Favorite Memory: After a tough afternoon I get up on the front the next morning and make a perfect cast to a single 9 lbs. Bonefish. He moves 2 feet and inhales my Deep Eyed Minnow.

Set on Andros in Behring Point, the lodge sits just across the street from the dock. You can wake up in the morning and look over the North Bight and see what the day will bring as you sip your dark Bahamian coffee. Your host ,the Neymour and Mackey families, are gracious and extremely helpful. Legendary guide Ivan Neymour and his son Dwayne are always around to answer questions and provide tips for your fishing.
Tranquility Hill is one of my favorite lodges and some of my favorite people. The runs out to the flats are short and usually smooth. These are not your entry level Bonefish. They come in pairs or quads and your casting needs to be spot on. In early December you will see more schools and the fishing is less technical, but also the average fish will be smaller because the smaller ones will be more aggressive. We went in January and had plenty of shots at bigger fish including some double digits.
Frankie our guide told me one fish I had on for about 2 minutes was as big as he had seen in awhile. It was around 12lbs, but the hook pull out on one of its long runs. The group we had down there was from Wild on the Fly Magazine and we were filming for an up coming show. Be on the look out this summer for us and all the big bones we caught on AlltheRightFlies Bonefish Flies. I can not wait for my next trip back.
