Stafford Creek Lodge located on the east side of Andros
Island, approximately 20 miles north of Andros Town (Google Earth
at 24.53.44 N and 77.56.08 ).
Prescott Smith, the owner of Stafford Creek Lodge,
has developed a solid and time-proven fishing program that has attracted
serious flats fishermen for over a decade.
Andros Island, the largest island (2,300 square-miles)
of the 15 major islands in the Bahamas, has a reputation for remote
flats with big bonefish and consistently produces some of the largest
bonefish on fly in the world. Stafford Creek Lodge fishes the famous
Joulter Cays (Joulters) which is made up of fifty-odd islets dotted
on a 125 square-mile, sand bank bisected by meandering deep-water
channels that are rarely more than 15 feet deep. This combination
of interlacing channels (bonefish highways) and seemingly endless
flats makes the Joulters a must-fish destination for Stafford Creek
guests. A wade-fishers dream. In addition, the lodge fishes the
remote Westside of the island to easy accessed and productive local
waters for big bonefish. Prescott Smith, owner and head guide, prides
himself in his fishery for not only bonefish, but permit and tarpon
as well.
The prime season for bonefish in the Bahamas runs from
October to June, but fish frequent the flats all year round.
You'll find the secluded lodge
in an idyllic setting, nestled among the native palms and hugging
the banks of the calm, clear waters of Stafford Creek. Stafford
Creek Lodge is a magical place. Come and discover a new world
of Bonefish, Tarpon, and Permit fishing. You will explore a vast
fishing wilderness from the northern Joulters Cays to the numerous
creek systems, inland lakes, and the west coast of Andros. Even
discover tarpon right off the dock in front of the lodge.
