The crew of IGFA Angler’s Digest brings you light-tackle fishing for black marlin, blue marlin and sailfish on the Pacific side of Guatemala with record setting Capt. Chris Sheeder. We target billfish using a tease-up and pitch-back approach — pitching bridled ballyhoo and mackerel — we’re joined by Capts. Randall Gaines and Jason Brice aboard a custom 37 foot Merritt Sportfisher — the Release. For those of you unfamiliar with the accomplishments of Capt. Sheeder, he set a new record with 54 sailfish releases in one day…. all on the fly!
Guatemala offers much more than sport fishing. Historical Mayan ruins are still being discovered in this lush, tropical country where ancient traditions and cultures exist till this day. We take a few days to explore the local mountains and Lake Atitlan as well Antigua, the charming and historically significant former capital of Guatemala. It’s sheer beauty makes Guatemala a place you just have to experience for yourself.
