Build your own week

Bring your group. We'll build the week around you.

A Fish for Change week, with your people in the boats

Everything that makes a summer program what it is, shaped around a group that already knows each other.

The same lodges, the same guides who grew up on the water, the same days: fishing in the morning, something off the water in the afternoon, dinner with the people who live there. What changes is the group. Tell us who's coming, where you're curious about and roughly when, and we'll curate a week that fits.

Honduras, the Bahamas, Mexico and Costa Rica are all on the table. So is a week that leans harder on the fishing, or harder on the community involvement, or splits the difference.

  • A family

    Parents and kids on the same flat

    A trip the kids plan for, work for, and talk about for the next twenty years.

  • A school or club

    A fly fishing club, a class, a team

    Ten service hours in the week, signed off for school, and a teacher who gets to fish too.

  • A crew of friends

    Buddies who love to fish together

    A permit, a mangrove planting and a dinner at a guide's table beat another lodge week.

How it comes together

  1. Tell us about the group

    Who's coming, how many, the ages, how much fishing experience is in the room, and anything you already know you want. The form below is enough to start.

  2. We shape the week with you

    Location, dates and the balance of fishing, community involvement and exploring. Heather gets back to you herself. Expect a conversation, not a brochure.

  3. Dates, cost and the details

    Once the shape is right we confirm the lodge, the dates and the per-person cost, and send the packing list and travel notes for that location.

  4. Show up on a Saturday

    Trip leaders meet you at the airport. From there it runs like every Fish for Change week: on the water by day, in the community by evening, a circle on the dock at night.

Tell us what you have in mind

Rough is fine. "Six dads and six kids, spring break, somewhere with bonefish" is a great first message.

We reply by email, usually within a few days.

"Fish for Change really is only 9% about fishing. It is about infinitely more, through fishing."
