I go to Guatemala frequently, mostly the capital and Antigua, but I've never had time to fish. Well, I have to be there next Thursday and Friday and I'd like to arrange a fishing trip for Saturday. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

This is the place to be. Call Jody, he can arrange what ever you need. World class operation IMO. I am sure he could get you out there on one of the smaller boats if you are short on crew also.

Mike Baily is the US contact for Buenavista Sportfishing Lodge. His cell number is 301-972-2771. He will also be able to set you up if you can't get in touch with Jody. Here are some pics from our trip to Buenavista Sportfishing Lodge in Guatemala back on Jan 20th. It was so much fun we are going back in March.

My Buddy Raymond went down to Buenavista a couple of weeks ago and caught this Blue Marlin
