This site will give you all the information you need to go guided or unguided fly-fishing on our tropical Caribbean paradise. The goal of our website is to get more people interested in fly-fishing and light tackle fishing on the island with beautiful flats and mangroves and to get out as much information as possible.

Through the testimonials shared on this site you will be informed of the best fly-fishing spots in Aruba, which are generally on the west side of the island. There are some beautiful flats here and you always have the winds in your back. The north side of the island is very hard to fish on because there are only a few reachable places and rough water.
Since I started this site in 2008 many people started bringing a fly rod on their trip to Aruba!
I hope our website will be of help to you and please feel free to email with suggestions, questions and/or info that you’d like to share. Click here for information on high tides, weather and what to bring.
Looking forward to fish with you.
I am a big believer in catch and release!
Yours tropically, Laurenz.
