Ascension Bay Permit Fishing & Yucatan Permit Trips

Permit are widely considered one of the most challenging and rewarding species in saltwater fly fishing. Their wariness, powerful fights, and incredible strength make them a bucket-list fish for many anglers.

Ascension Bay Permit Fishing

Ascension Bay, located in the protected Sian Ka'an Biosphere Reserve, is one of the best places in the world for permit on fly.

The vast flats, clear water, and healthy crab populations create ideal conditions. Anglers regularly encounter schools of permit and have shots at larger individual fish.

Many visitors target permit with bonefish and tarpon for the famous Grand Slam.

Other Yucatan Permit Opportunities

  • Isla Blanca – Good permit fishing in the spring and summer months. Fish from Cancun, Playa del Carmen, or the Riviera Maya.
  • Cozumel Lagoons Not as plentiful as Bonefish but the occasional Permit can be landed in Cozumel.

Best Time To Target Permit in the Yucatan

Permit can be targeted year-round, but the prime conditions are typically spring through fall when weather is more stable and fish are active on the flats.
