Providence Atoll - FlyCastaway

Providence Blog: 4 – 11 November 2025

Week two of the November cycle began with a lively mix of returning anglers, familiar faces, and a few newcomers joining the adventure. With big spring tides on the horizon, anticipation was high and everyone was dreaming of big GTs pushing onto the flats.

Day 1:
The week opened with a blend of high winds and pockets of sunlight, creating challenging but workable conditions. Rob started strong, landing two GTs, while Karl and Ivan each added a GT of their own. Offshore, Mike managed to land a sailfish, and Scott put in a standout performance, landing three GTs, the biggest a handsome 97 cm specimen. A solid, high-energy start to the week.

Day 2:
A very cloudy, rainy day made spotting fish extremely difficult, but persistence paid off. Offshore excitement came early when Jonathan and Tom doubled up on sailfish, creating lively chaos with two big fish on at once. On the flats, Ivan found success with two GTs, while Scott continued his fine form, landing four GTs, including the week’s first truly exceptional trophy—a 113 cm giant.

Day 3:
Another heavily overcast day didn’t slow the momentum. Rob enjoyed productive offshore fishing, landing both a sailfish and a wahoo. On the flats, Kelly, Karl, and Bryan tapped into a pocket of GT activity, each landing two GTs, including a memorable triple-up where all three anglers hooked GTs simultaneously.

Day 4:
Partly cloudy skies improved visibility and fish were seen more regularly. Rob stayed hot, landing three more GTs, while Karl, Bryan, and Kelly each added another GT to their weekly totals. Mike also landed a GT. The highlight of the day belonged to Ivan, who produced a spectacular double: a 95 cm GT, followed later by a 121 cm trophy, one of the week’s best fish. A truly exceptional day of flats fishing.

Day 5:
Heavy rain and cold winds made for tough conditions, but once again the guests rose to the challenge. Kelly and Karl each landed a sailfish, while Tom and Jonathan both landed GTs. Rob added three GTs and a sailfish, continuing an incredibly strong week. The standout catch came from Scott, who landed a rare Providence permit—a highly prized and unusual capture on the atoll. A remarkable achievement.

Day 6:
Cloudy skies persisted for the final day, but spirits remained high. Bryan landed a beautiful sailfish, Karl added another GT, Scott found yet another GT, and Ivan closed out the week with two more GTs.

As the week came to a close, more fish began moving back into the atoll, and expectations are now sky-high for the coming sessions. With momentum building, the next week promises exciting opportunities.

With the team finally back on Providence after the cyclone, spirits were high and everyone was eager to get onto the flats and see what the atoll had in store. The week delivered a wide range of species, some exceptional catches, and plenty of memorable moments.

Day 1:
A sunny day greeted the anglers and set the tone for an exciting return to the flats. Ivan and Scott kicked things off with a GT each, while Kelly, Casey, and Tim put in a strong performance on the bonefish, landing seven between them. Brian added a GT of his own, and Keith and Mike each landed two GTs, with Mike also bringing a quality bonefish to hand. Carl rounded out a productive session with a triggerfish and a bonefish, while David landed a trigger and two bones. Zak finished the day in style with four triggerfish and a bonefish—an excellent opening day back on Providence.

Day 2:
Clear skies and sunshine continued into the second day, providing great visibility on the flats. Ivan wasted no time, landing two triggerfish early on, with Brian adding another soon after. Mike landed both a triggerfish and a GT, while Keith brought a GT and a bumpy to hand. Karl matched him with a GT and a bumpy of his own, and David added a trigger and a bonefish. Another strong day with a variety of species landed.

Day 3:
The sunshine held for a third consecutive day. Scott landed a GT and a bonefish, with Casey also getting on the board with a bone. David landed a GT, and Keith produced one of the highlights of the week with the first sailfish. Karl added a trigger and a GT, while Mike had an excellent day, landing three triggerfish.

Day 4:
The weather turned dramatically—dark skies, rain, and strong winds made for challenging conditions. Despite this, the anglers pushed hard and were rewarded. Tim and Casey each landed a bonefish, with Casey also bringing a sailfish to hand. Kelly landed two bonefish and his own sailfish, while Zak, Keith, and David each joined the sailfish action with one apiece. Keith also added a GT, and David secured a bumpy. Scott landed two bonefish, while Ivan had a standout day with four bonefish, a trigger, and a GT, completing his slam. A remarkable effort in tough conditions.

Day 5:
The bad weather persisted, but morale stayed high. Brian and Mike each landed two bonefish, while Keith added another two GTs. Kelly landed a bonefish, Tim produced two bones, and Casey added a bonefish and a GT. Zak, David, and Karl each contributed with bonefish of their own, with Karl landing two.

Day 6:
The weather remained mixed, with only the occasional break in the clouds. Zak landed a Napoleon wrasse, a rare and impressive catch. Tim and Kelly each landed a GT, and a strong mix of other species rounded out the day as the anglers made the most of the conditions.

With neap tides shifting into springs, hopes are high for increased GT activity in the coming week. Anticipation is building for what Providence may deliver next.

Week 2 welcomed a great blend of returning guests and first-time visitors, all arriving with high spirits and eager anticipation for the fishing ahead. With the weather looking promising at the start of the week, hopes were high for quality time on the flats before the spring tides began to build.

Day 1
A bright, sunny morning greeted the anglers as they prepared for their first day on Providence. Conditions were ideal, and the team wasted no time getting stuck into the action.

Dennise kicked off his week in style, landing both a moustache triggerfish and a yellowmargin triggerfish—two prized and notoriously tricky species. Yan and Andrea each opened their GT accounts for the week, bringing solid fish to hand. Nikolay added to the variety with a beautifully marked bumpy, a favourite target among many Providence regulars. Yuri rounded out the day’s highlights with an excellent performance, landing three GTs and setting a confident tone for the week ahead.

Days 2–6
Unfortunately, nature had other plans. As Cyclone Chenge began tracking toward Providence, the decision was made—rightly and safely—to leave the atoll and seek calmer waters until the system had passed. Safety is always the first priority, and while it was extremely disappointing to cut the fishing short, the group handled the change in plans with good spirits and understanding.

Although Week 2 ended far earlier than hoped, the single day spent on the flats still delivered memorable moments, a handful of high-quality fish, and a taste of what Providence can offer. We would like thank the group for the understanding and attitudes on an extremely disappointing outcome, and look forward to welcoming this group back so we can provide them with the experience they were really hoping for!

Weekly Catch Summary:

GTs: 5
Triggerfish: 2
Bumpy: 1
Bluefin: 3
Other Species: 43

A short but meaningful week—made special by the people who shared it.

The first week of the season welcomed a full group of familiar faces back to Providence. With neap tides on the cards, hopes were high for tailing species and classic early-season opportunities on the flats.

Day 1
Providence greeted the group with strong winds, cloud cover and intermittent rain—challenging conditions for any angler. Despite this, perseverance paid off. Gregory and Max each landed a GT, with Max adding a solid bonefish to his tally. Justin and Ivan enjoyed excellent triggerfishing, bringing five triggers to hand between them. Rodeon made the most of the tough weather with three GTs, while Vladimir found two of his own. A remarkably productive start given the conditions—well done to all.

Day 2
The wind held, but clearer skies made fish-spotting far easier. Rodeon and Roman made quick work of the bonefish, landing ten between them, with Rodeon adding another GT. Ivan stayed consistent with another triggerfish and two GTs, while Justin added a GT and a trigger to his tally. Max and Gregory kept the momentum going with a GT and a triggerfish each. Vladimir had a standout day on the flats, landing four GTs, a triggerfish and two bonefish—securing a well-earned flats slam.

Day 3
Clear skies and slightly lighter winds allowed the anglers to fish aggressively. Roman landed a GT and a triggerfish, while Vladimir brought a GT and a bonefish to hand. Max recorded two GTs and a trigger, but the day belonged to Gregory, who landed an impressive three triggerfish and four GTs. Justin and Ivan delivered the highlight of the day: both landed slams, combining for three bonefish, three triggerfish and an extraordinary ten GTs. Providence at its finest.

Day 4
Heavy cloud and wind returned, making visibility tough, but the group fished brilliantly in the conditions. Max and Roman each landed GTs, while Ivan brought two triggerfish to hand. Justin continued his exceptional form with two GTs and two triggers. The day, however, belonged to Rodeon, who produced a spectacular slam: three GTs, a triggerfish, a bumpy, and—most impressively—a sailfish. A truly memorable achievement.

Day 5
The wind persisted, but the sun returned. Rodeon and Roman continued their momentum, each landing four GTs. Justin added three more, while Ivan picked up another GT. Max enjoyed a superb day, landing a GT and three bumpies, the biggest measuring 102 cm. Vladimir joined the bumpy action with two fish, including a remarkable 110 cm specimen. Another exceptional day on Providence.

Day 6
The final day brought sunshine and wind. Ivan and Rodeon added GTs to their weekly totals, while Roman landed a barracuda. Max closed out his week strongly with another triggerfish and yet another bumpy. A fantastic finish to an incredible week shared with a wonderful group of anglers.

As neap tides now give way to the springs, attention shifts toward the GTs for the coming week—along with the hope that a true giant may make an appearance.

GTs: 67
Triggerfish: 24
Bumpies: 7
Bonefish: 15

St Brandon Blog: 7 – 17 October 2025

Week six at St Brandon’s Atoll brought neap tides and a stretch of calm, settled weather—perfect conditions for covering water and making the most of the atoll’s remarkable fishing opportunities. With clear skies, light winds, and extended hours on the flats, it was a week that reminded everyone why St Brandon remains one of the world’s finest saltwater fly-fishing destinations.

Bonefishing remained reliably productive, with plenty of fish spotted tailing in shallow water throughout the week. The flats were alive with movement, offering consistent shots and classic sight-fishing conditions. The standout catch came from Ross, who landed a stunning 8.5-pound bonefish—an exceptional specimen and a true reflection of the atoll’s thriving population. Each day delivered steady action and a reminder of just how special this fishery is when the weather aligns.

After a quieter spell in recent tides, permit fishing truly came alive this week. The calm conditions allowed guests to stalk these famously selective fish across the flats, and the results were outstanding: six permit landed in total. Tim led the way with two beautiful fish, Etienne matched the feat with two of his own, Rod added a solid 7-pounder, and Guy closed the tally with a quality fish to end the week. For many anglers, permit are the ultimate prize in saltwater fly-fishing, and seeing so many landed in a single week was something special for both guides and guests alike.

The trevally action was equally thrilling. Bluefin trevally were in peak form, attacking flies with aggression along the reef edges and drop-offs. Guy landed a powerful 82 cm bluefin, Tim followed close behind with an 80 cm fish, and Etienne added a solid 78 cm specimen. These fast, colorful predators brought plenty of energy to the week and kept rods bent and reels screaming.

Then came the show-stoppers: the giant trevally (GTs). This week’s GT fishing reached a whole new level, producing some unforgettable moments on the flats. Etienne stole the spotlight with an exceptional 103 cm GT—a truly world-class fish—while Guy added another brute measuring 100 cm, rounding off what can only be described as a phenomenal week. To add even more color, John wrapped things up in style with a striking 5.5-pound golden trevally, a perfect finale to an already spectacular run of fishing.

From technical permit eats to explosive trevally strikes, Week Six delivered across the board. A huge thank-you to all our guests for their enthusiasm, focus, and camaraderie throughout the week. Spirits are high, and with conditions continuing to hold steady, we’re looking forward to carrying this incredible momentum into Week Seven.

Tight lines,

Week four at St Brandon’s Atoll delivered another memorable stretch of fly fishing. This time, neap tides set the stage for extended sessions on the flats, with calmer water and slower tidal movement giving us plenty of time to explore the atoll’s expansive sand and coral systems. Conditions were excellent, and our guests made the most of every opportunity.

Bonefishing remained as consistent as ever, with good numbers of fish encountered tailing in shallow water. The ankle-deep flats provided classic sight-fishing scenarios, often allowing anglers to spot and stalk fish at close range. Most bonefish averaged between 5 and 6 lb, and there was no shortage of solid specimens to keep rods bent and reels singing. The relaxed neap tide rhythm made for some truly enjoyable sessions, with long periods spent wading the flats under clear skies.

Permit fishing brought its share of excitement too. These notoriously selective fish made regular appearances across the atoll, and our guests rose to the challenge admirably. John Snipes enjoyed an outstanding week, landing three permit, the largest weighing in at 10.5 lb—an exceptional fish by any standard. Christian added another quality 9 lb permit to the tally, rounding off what was a particularly rewarding week for those targeting this elusive species. As always, permit demanded skill, patience, and precision, and the results reflected both great angling and perseverance.

The trevally scene kept the energy levels high. Both giant trevally (GTs) and bluefin trevally were active, adding plenty of adrenaline to the week’s fishing. Christian led the charge with a superb 107 cm GT, while Dave followed up with a solid 89 cm fish and Steve added an 88 cm GT to the count. Bluefin trevally were especially lively, bringing fast-paced action along the reef edges and drop-offs. John Snipes landed a strong 74 cm bluefin, while Dave put in a standout performance with 77 cm and 76 cm fish. These trevally encounters provided some spectacular visual takes and blistering runs—just the kind of action St Brandon is famous for.

With long, productive hours spent on the flats and an excellent variety of species brought to hand, week four offered a perfect balance of opportunity and excitement. The combination of favorable tides, good weather, and an enthusiastic group of anglers made for another unforgettable week on the atoll. A big thank-you to all our guests for their focus, energy, and great company on the water. We’re excited to carry this momentum forward into the weeks ahead.

St Brandon Blog: 22 April – 2 May 2025

Hi there and welcome to the fourth week of the St. Brandon season! We kicked things off with slightly warmer weather than usual and were hoping for a cooling breeze to bring some relief to both the water and the flats. This week saw us fishing spring tides, which meant limited time on the flats but more opportunities to explore the islands and their surrounding waters.

Bonefishing Update

Bonefishing proved a bit more challenging this week. The fish were holding deeper and moving in larger schools, rather than the classic St. Brandon singles and doubles cruising the flats. That said, we still saw excellent results, with over 50 bonefish landed throughout the week. The average size remained solid, with many fish in the 7–8 lb range.

A major highlight came from seasonal guest Jim, who has spent several weeks with us over the years. He kicked off his first week with a superb 10 lb bonefish—an exceptional catch and a rare sight! Doug also enjoyed success, landing a strong 8 lb fish on the flats. Huge congratulations to both anglers. A double-digit bone is a trophy anywhere, and it’s always a thrill to see such quality fish landed here on St. Brandon. It continues to reinforce our reputation as a world-class bonefish destination.

Permit Fishing

Permit sightings and encounters were once again plentiful, with good numbers of feeding and tailing fish spotted across the flats, islands, and coral ridges. These famously finicky fish gave our guests multiple opportunities, and the rewards were well-earned.

Jim opened his St. Brandon permit account in style with a beautiful 7 lb fish on day one, followed shortly by Doug landing a cracking 8 lb permit. It’s always special to see guests connect with this challenging species, and both anglers made the most of their chances.

Trevally Action

Giant trevally activity was a bit slower this week. We did spot a few giants moving through the area, but no solid hookups materialized. On the brighter side, Bluefin Trevally were more active, especially around the islands where we witnessed several fish terrorizing bait balls.

A total of three Bluefin were landed during the week, each measuring between 60 and 65 cm. While the numbers were modest, the pursuit of all trevally species remains a major draw for our anglers, and it’s only a matter of time before someone connects with one of the true brutes patrolling the Atoll.

Looking Ahead

As we wrap up Week 4, spirits remain high. The southeast winds are starting to pick up, which should help cool the water and create ideal conditions for the fishery in the coming weeks. We thoroughly enjoyed spending time with both returning and new guests—thank you all for joining us!

We’re looking forward to the rest of the season and many more memorable moments on the flats.

Catch Summary:

Bonefish: 58 (1 x 10 lb, 1 x 8 lb)
Indo-Pacific Permit: 7 (1 x 8 lb)
Bluefin Trevally: 3

Yours in fishing,
