Big Charlie's Lodge
Cargill Creek, Andros Island

TLT Signature Lodge - World-class bonefishing with Charlie Neymour

Sensational flats fishing in comfort with great food and drink. Big Charlie & Fatiha’s Fishing Lodge is an all-inclusive destination for avid saltwater fly fishers. Located in the bonefish mecca of Andros Island, Bahamas and famous for some of the largest bonefish in the world, they cater to serious anglers… who love a great time on the water!

The Lodge

Getting Here

​One of our favorite guides of all time - the legendary Charlie Neymour and his team of hand-picked bonefish guides welcome anglers of all abilities and provide the best in customized fly-fishing adventures. Wade the flats for tailing bones, or search for larger fish by poled skiff. If it’s a double-digit bonefish you’re looking for, pole the deep edges for cruising giants. And Charlie loves to hunt for tarpon on the West Side. In season you’ll find tarpon, permit, snapper, sharks, barracuda, and more. Whatever your preference, Charlie has you covered. 
​Charlie, and his wife, Fatiah, have created a lodge that feels like home. The four comfortable air-conditioned guest rooms can take up to eight anglers, creating an exclusive experience. This is a classic bonefish lodge, with a large dining room and bar overlooking Cargill Creek, or you can sit out on the deck and enjoy a cold Kalik and conch fritters while watching the sunset. And you won't go hungry, as Fatiah is an amazing chef, and she serves a number of dishes, including fresh seafood, spiced with her Moroccan style of cooking.

Plan Your Trip

This is one of our favorite saltwater fly fishing experiences in the world. Upon arrival at the lodge, Fatiah will greet you, get you settled into your room and then you just start enjoying your time here. Breakfast is served starting at 7 am. You can order eggs and other specialties to order. A lunch buffet is laid out so you can make your own lunch to take on the skiff. Fishing starts between 8 and 8:30 am (but depends on tides and time of year). 
Charlie will talk to you about the fishing at the bar the night before each day. Be sure to tell Charlie about any specific angling goals you have in mind at the beginning of your trip.
Each day when you return from fishing, apre appetizers will be ready at the bar, or out on the deck. Enjoy with your favorite beer or cocktail, followed by dinner.
In terms of gear - you need to take your own fly fishing gear. We will talk this over with you before your trip, and will send you detailed pre-arrival information with our gear, clothing and other recommendations.
