Christmas Island - Bonefish, Giant Trevally

The Villages Fishing Lodge

Fly-fishing for Bonefish and Giant Trevally.

Christmas Island is located in the Central Pacific in the Republic of Kiribati. Only 144 miles north of the equator, Christmas Island is the largest coral atoll in the world.

World famous for its vast numbers of bonefish and giant trevally, the endless clear water, sand and coral flats make spotting bonefish easier than other areas. Some of our clients have landed over 50 bonefish a day. One gentleman landed 50 bones - three days in a row. During our hosted weeks, we'll also fish outside the reef for tuna, wahoo, sailfish and other species.

For $100.00 clients can hire an extra guide for a day. Split with your partner, the cost is $50.00 each angler. If you do fish with an extra guide, you should tip your personal guide $40.00 total per day. The normal tip is $20.00 per person when sharing a guide. That extra set of experienced eyes will help you catch a lot more bones. We can bill you before your trip so you don’t have to carry extra cash to hire your extra guide.
