Episode 8 - WIL FLACK: Feeding Permit – Tips and Techniques for Chasing the Black-Tailed Devil
Permit and steelhead addict Wil Flack has been living, guiding and working in Belize for close to 20 years. Wil owns Tres Pescados Fly Shop on Ambergris Caye as well as the Belize Permit Club further to the south in Hopkins, Belize. In this episode of Waypoints, Wil shares with us his opinions, advice and hard-earned knowledge on all things permit, including how to prepare, how to present, how permit behave, the best times of the year and best overall conditions for permit, and much more. Whether you’re already a hardcore permit junkie, or someone who is looking to plan and prepare for their first permit adventure, this show will provide an incredible amount of relevant information. As a guide, Wil has been putting his clients on to permit all throughout the waters of Belize. As an angler, Wil has fished all over the world, including Tahiti and French Polynesia, Costa Rica, Honduras, Mexico, Fiji, Venezuela, the Bahamas, Kanton, Australia, Hawaii, Japan and throughout the US West and Canada. He was featured in the 2013 Confluence Films project, Waypoints, searching for jungle payara and eating barbecued jungle rat with his friend Oliver White.
