Crooked Island, Bahamas

Crooked & Acklins Trophy Lodge

SaltwaterBight of Acklins — Major's Cay, Crooked Island

No website of its own; details from booking agents: this page is built from the agencies and other pages listed under Sources, not from the lodge's own website.

On the north shore of Crooked Island, toward the south-eastern end of the Bahamas, this five-room beach lodge fishes the Bight of Acklins for bonefish, from skiffs or on foot over wide flats you can wade. Permit, triggerfish and the small tarpon that live in the bight are the other targets. Skiffs run from both Crooked and Acklins and anglers change guides every day, so one week covers water on either side of the bight.

Getting there

Gateway airport
CRI
From there
Fly to Nassau and connect on Bahamasair to Colonel Hill (CRI) on Crooked Island, which has scheduled flights on Wednesdays and Saturdays; lodge staff meet the plane, and the lodge is about ten minutes away by road. Because weeks normally start and end on a Saturday, most anglers spend Friday night in Nassau.
