The world’s bonefish capital is calling us back in 2025….

Join the Creel Crew on Andros Island in the Bahamas. The view as you fly into Fresh Creek Airport is unmatched, with endless shades of crystal blue water on all sides. For 2025, we have the great pleasure of hosting our trip in a brand new lodge located in Cargill Creek. This Central Andros location has been crafted with hospitality and fishing in mind. The lodge is a true family affair, designed and built by locals Danny and Juliette Newbold, backed by their sons Julio and Danny Junior (DJ). Juliette is the head of hospitality for the facility, while Danny and his sons are also fishing guides.

Travel Creel brings together the top local guides and our signature brand of hospitality to ensure we have everything covered for your stay. Bonefish are the target species with some reaching the double digits… Your guide spots these stealthy swimmers from afar and expertly positions the boat as he points where to cast. Come along on this island adventure and experience the magic this Bahamian gem has to offer.

Your days on Andros Island:

6:30 am- Meet the Creel Crew in the main dining room for your morning coffee and take your pick from our delicious breakfast spread.

7:30 am- Grab your gear, layer on the unscented sun protection and make sure to leave behind any bright clothing that might spook this elusive species.

Lunchboxes are packed daily by your Creel Crew Chef, add snacks from the loaded baskets and a bottle of Kalik, a local Nassau brewed beer, or your choice of beverage to bring along for your day of fishing.

8:00 am- Meet the guides in their boats right out front on Cargill Creek and head off for each exciting day of sight casting to the gray ghosts of the flats.

4:00 pm- Your guide will head in and drop you off right at the lodge. Rinse the saltwater off your gear and freshen up.

*Our “Pocket Knife” Rosanna is our shuttle driver extraordinaire. She is ready to swing by and take you to grab any supplies you may need during your stay, or will happily make the run for you.*

5:30 pm- Grab a cocktail from the full bar in the lodge’s main dining room and relax on the picturesque wraparound porch until dinner is served. Swap stories of the day’s adventures over Chef’s thoughtfully crafted menus.

After dinner, top up your cocktail glass and eventually meander back to your room. Each of the lodge’s 5 spacious guestrooms is complete with air conditioning, a private bathroom and two Queen beds.

Who’s ready for beautiful sunsets, big fish and Caribbean vibes….?

Meals served by your on-site Creel Crew will feature a delicious mix of Caribbean delicacies, local seafood hauls and provisions chartered over from Nassau to the lodge. They will make sure to pack a few goodies from home to sprinkle in a few ingredients that are possible to obtain locally.
