点评:Xflats has a reputation as among the finest locations to hunt for permit, the fish of a thousand casts. I’ve caught five and have caught the fever but Mother Nature can get in the way. Terrible winds made finding, seeing and casting to the few that we saw, difficult each of our five fishing days. One day the “harbor master” shut everyone down. Safety first and for good reason. In four days of fishing I cast to very, very few permit.
The lodge is comfortable and the meeting/dining area quite nice. Lunches and dinners were quite good and if you like eggs and bacon in one form or another, so was breakfast. A bit of fresh fruit was always available but I’m talking bites and not plates of fruit. On day three I asked for an alternative, perhaps yogurt and dry cereal and I did get a second option on day five. Many reasons why I choose not to eat eggs or bacon very often if at all back home.
The cutest of the lodges several dogs ate and carried off my fishing boot one evening! The lodge made it right immediately, fortunately having a spare pair I could use the last two days and then appropriately comped my bar bill at the end of the trip.
Astonishingly we were all asked to tip the guides “as usual” for the non fishing day. “They depend on the tip money.” The guests all, as far as I know, declined to do so and nothing more was said. I think any social welfare program is exclusively up to the lodge and not the guests.
Folks who fished for bonefish or small tarpon caught a few despite the wind and one grand slam was accomplished.
翻译:Xflats 是捕捞许可证鱼的最佳地点之一,那里有上千条鱼可以钓到。我钓到了五条,也开始发烧了,但大自然会阻止我。在我们钓鱼的五天里,可怕的大风使得我们很难找到、看到和钓到我们钓到的那几条鱼。有一天,“港务长”叫停了所有人。安全第一,理由很充分。在钓鱼的四天里,我钓到的许可证鱼非常少。
小屋很舒适,会议/用餐区也很不错。午餐和晚餐都很不错,如果你喜欢吃鸡蛋和培根,早餐也不错。总是有一点新鲜的水果,但我说的是吃点东西,而不是吃一盘水果。第三天,我要求换一种吃法,也许是酸奶和干麦片,第五天我得到了第二种选择。有很多原因让我选择不经常吃鸡蛋或培根,甚至在家里也不吃。
最可爱的小屋,一天晚上,几只狗吃了我的钓鱼靴,还叼走了!旅馆立即就解决了问题,幸运的是,我还有一对备用的钓鱼竿,可以在最后两天使用,然后在旅行结束时适当地补偿了我的酒吧账单。
令人惊讶的是,我们都被要求在非钓鱼日“照常”给导游小费。“他们依靠小费。”据我所知,所有客人都拒绝这样做,也没有再说什么。我认为任何社会福利计划都完全由旅馆而不是客人决定。
尽管有风,钓骨鱼或小鲢鱼的人还是钓到了一些,并完成了一次大满贯。
