This trip to Crooked Island isn’t just another Bahamas getaway — it’s a carefully curated adventure born from trusted industry connections and years of experience. A close friend who’s been fishing these flats for many seasons helped us uncover this gem, far from the mainstream and heavy traffic of typical Bahamian destinations. We’ve done our homework, vetting both the lodge owner and the guide team to ensure you’ll be fishing with seasoned professionals who know these waters intimately. With comfortable lodging arranged and access to remote, lightly pressured flats, this is a rare opportunity to chase bonefish and permit in a setting that feels truly wild. The Red’s team is beyond excited to invite you to join us — this is the kind of trip we dream about, and we can’t wait to share it with you.

Travel is more organized, safer, more enriching, and flat out more fun with a coordinated group. Because one of our team members is going, you can be assured we are intimately familiar with the itinerary and up to speed on changing plans or conditions. A Red's team member will be on the trip to help make it the most efficient, rewarding, and best adventure we can. We have a vested interest in the group's success. Your host will be there to aid the outfitter in coordinating ground transfers, assigning guides, meeting angler expectations, and helping problem solve should any challenges arise. Your host will mentor as necessary, work with the head guide to coordinate guide pairings, and make group wide decisions that best serve all Red's customers. We are there to both serve the customer and do some fishing.

We understand that unexpected circumstances can arise, and we want to be as flexible as possible while ensuring our trips run smoothly. A 50% non-refundable deposit is required at the time of booking, with final payment due 90 days before departure. For trips scheduled within 90 days of departure, full payment is required at the time of booking. If you need to cancel, we will do everything in our power to rebook the trip to full capacity. If we are successful, we will gladly issue you a refund minus a $100 administrative fee. Additionally, if your plans change more than 90 days before departure, you have the option to reschedule your trip for a future date, subject to a $100 administrative fee. Our goal is to make your experience as stress-free as possible, and we’ll do our very best to assist you in the event of any changes.
