EAST END LODGE, LLC
JUPITER, FLORIDA

The guide staff at East End lodge prides itself on keeping guests on fish all throughout the year. This team loves fishing long days and often stays out well past the time when all other angling boats in the region have headed in. Given that the flats are right near the lodge, you will spend more time fishing and less time running in the boat. There are five, large channels that run northeast to southwest on the island’s eastern horn. This supplies ample wind protection and it additionally allows the guides to fish the best tides all throughout the day. There is a complex flats system that the tides cycle through. The fact that guides at the East End Lodge can help you fish optimal tides is a rare situation among flats destinations and it means that you won’t find your self stuck in areas that are unproductive due to bad tides. The head guide at the East End Lodge is Cecil Leathen. Cecil has created a team that features some of the top guides on the island. Every guide at the lodge is informative, highly professional and a joy to fish with. They know where to find lots of fish and they are also among the Bahamas’ best permit fishing guides. We have found that the permit in the waters near East End are generally larger than many of the other fish throughout the Caribbean. The permit in this region range between 15 and 25 pounds and when the weather is good, you may even get a chance at fish weighing 30 pounds or more. Due to the relatively modest fishing pressure in the location, there are times when the permit react to the fly aggressively. Anglers additionally have the option of targeting sharks, barracuda, snapper, jacks and many other species in the East End area. 16-foot Dolphin Super Skiffs that have 85HP Yamaha outboard motors are run by the team of guides at East End Lodge. These include push-poles, poling platforms, “U-bars” for leaning, storage for rods, cushioned seats and coolers that are loaded with the lunch of your choice. We advise anglers to bring their own wading boots, reels, rods, terminal tackle, flies and other equipment. However, if anglers needs them, the lodge does have complimentary reels and rods available for use. East End Lodge’s cottages are the perfect spot to end a day of fishing by watching the sunset as it kisses the glass blue waters.
