Leland on the Umpqua Yucatan/Belize Guide Fly Selection
The only saltwater game fish pickier about its flies than a bonefish is
a permit. This is something to remember when packing for that
once-in-a-lifetime trip to Belize. Sure, you're guides will always have
the "hot flies," but arming yourself with Umpqua's Belize/Yucatan Guide
Fly Selection will insure you'll have the RIGHT
flies in your box. This hand picked fly selection has all you need to
successfully cast to and nab bonefish and permit. These are the tried
and true patterns, so don't leave home without them.

Umpqua on Guide Fly Selections
"Many of the same
great flies included in the Premium selection without the added expense
of the hardwood box. These selections were specifically called 'Guide
Selections' so that when destination travel customers arrive at
their exotic fishing location, it will be virtually impossible for the
guides to mutter their favorite phrase, 'those flies don't work here.'"
