Bairs Lodge

Located on South Andros between Deep and Little Creek; beachfront comfort

Suitable for up to 12 anglers, this plantation-style lodge is situated fronting the Atlantic. Bairs Lodge is complete with all paradise essentials; white sand beach, palm trees, beach fire pit and access to your flats skiff just steps from your room. Tidal creeks abound on this section of Andros; they provide water pathways to access the famous west side of the island, they offer protection from winds and create fertile bait rich environments that bonefish love. Some of Andros’ longest-tenured guides work here, making a day on the water productive and an enjoyable learning experience.

Fishing

The bulk of fishing here is done from the bow of 16’ flats skiffs, with occasional opportunities to wade hard white-sand bottoms. Fish average close to 4 pounds and many fish over 10 are landed every month of the season. Andros is Andros after all, so expect to find big bonefish on your visit.

Accommodation

Nicely appointed waterfront rooms feature air-conditioning, ceiling fans, en-suite bathrooms and plenty of room to store all your fishing gear and clothes. Cuisine is decidedly gourmet; lobster, fresh conch, locally caught fish, and fresh fruits and vegetables are the norm.

Gear

8-weight outfits with floating lines are the norm, while 9-weights provide additional backbone for bigger fish and the occasional permit or barracuda opportunity. Basic bonefish patterns like the Gotcha and Spawning Shrimp are great, w/ tippets and leaders tapered to 12 lbs. Rentals are available.
