Package Rates
Always remember that Yellow Dog’s services are completely free! When you book a trip with Yellow Dog, you never pay more than when you book directly with the lodge or outfitter! All prices below are per person and quoted in US dollars.
The Scorpion Atoll trip and the live-a-board can accommodate up to 4 anglers. They can accommodate a smaller group for the trip but the total price for the boat would be the same as a full boat. A group of 4 anglers certainly gives the best per person value for the trip!
6 Nights / 4 1/2 days of guided fishing = $7,850.00 per person (based on 3 anglers) or $6,450 per person (based on 4 anglers).
** Trip Insurance is required by the outfitter for this trip *
The outfitter also offers a Scorpion Atoll / Campeche combo trip with Tarpon Town for a little tarpon fishing on the front or back end of a trip to the atoll!! The Combo trip consists of 7 nights total with 3 days at the atoll and 3 days fishing for juvenile tarpon out of Campeche. Contact Yellow Dog for rates.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS – CANCELLATIONS
Receipt of deposit and/or final payment is acknowledgment that registrant has read and accepts the deposit, cancellation, refund and responsibility clauses for these packages. A non-refundable deposit of 50% per person is due at the time of booking for all trip packages and reservations, and final payment if due 90 days prior to arrival. All trip cancellations must be received in writing, sent to Yellow Dog Flyfishing Adventures, LLC. For cancellations outside of 120 days from the start of trip, a refund or trip credit will be given minus a $100.00 per person Yellow Dog cancellation fee. For cancellations 119 to 60 days from start of trip date, refunds will not be issued, however the outfitter may issue a trip credit for a future date. This will be at the sole discretion of the Outfitter. For cancellations inside of 60 days from the start of the trip, deposits and final payments will be forfeited and no trip credits will be issued. Partial group cancellations cannot be accommodated due to the fixed costs of the package, so any decisions to change dates or cancel must be made as a group. If a cancelled package is resold by either the outfitter or by Yellow Dog Flyfishing Adventures, then a full refund will be sent minus a $100.00 per person cancellation fee charged by Yellow Dog Flyfishing. If the trip does not fill with the required anglers per trip (5 minimum) within 60 days, the outfitter can opt to cancel the trip and all monies will be refunded subtracting the exchange rate differences and banking fees. If the trip does not fill with the required anglers per trip (5 minimum) within 60 days, the outfitter can opt to cancel the trip and all monies will be refunded subtracting the exchange rate differences and banking fees. It could be better to reschedule within the same year instead of canceling or claiming a refund, as Mexican peso parity versus USD can cause partial losses of the original amount deposited.
NOTE ON WEATHER: The schedule and departure date for each Scorpion Atoll trip can vary depending upon weather. Planning an extra day in Merida on the front end of the trip is not a bad idea in the event of being rescheduled should bad weather occur. For this reason, The Outfitter requires that all anglers and purchase travel insurance for this trip.
