Glover’s Reef, Belize
From our friend Brian Irwin, a story of conservation efforts moving forward to protect and allow for more sustained angling.
“Eighteen miles out, on the second largest barrier reef in the world, I found bones and tarpon, but the permit were elusive, with only a few showing their tails on the skinny water that coats the coral patches that comprise the reef’s skin. Twelve tooth-rattling miles beyond this reef brought us to Glover’s Reef, a remote atoll with a broad central flat that stretched literally to the horizon."
Read the story on his blog here. The rest of the piece will be in the 2014 Spring issue of Fly Rod and Reel Magazine.
