That afternoon we begin fishing. The next four or more days you will be based at Baia Lodge fishing the several river systems that are within 15min to an hour from the Lodge for Black and Spot Tail Bass, Mangrove Jack, Jungle Perch, GT and other estuarine species. Access to these areas is with our purpose built 6 meter sport fishing vessels. On the final day there is the opportunity to have an early morning fish and then back to the Lodge around 10am to have an early lunch and prepare for the trip back to Kimbe (Liamo Reef Resort).
