Video Series: How to Pack for The Palometa Club - Ascension Bay Fly Fishing Gear Guide

In this video, we break down exactly how to pack for a fly fishing trip to Ascension Bay, so you show up prepared and ready to fish.

From rods and reels to flies, clothing, and travel essentials, we cover everything you need for targeting permit, bonefish, and tarpon in one of the most technical and rewarding fisheries in the world. Whether it’s your first time heading to Punta Allen or you’re a seasoned saltwater angler, this guide will help you avoid overpacking — and more importantly — missing something critical.

We also share pro tips from the Tailwaters Fly Fishing team, including gear recommendations, must-have items for the flats, and how to stay comfortable in the heat and elements of the Yucatán.

If you’re planning a trip to the Palometa Club or any Mexico fly fishing destination, this is your go-to packing guide.
