Catch & Release Fishing Pool

At low tide at the eastern end of West moore Island a natural rock pool forms. As this pool never dries many fish species remain behind when the tide recedes. Blue-bone Groper, Spotted cod, Spanish Flag and Mangrove Jack are plentiful and provide a great opportunity to hone casting and landing skills.

As this pool is close to the Lodge it provides guests with an activity anytime of the day - high or low tide. We do ask, however, that fish caught here are released so as to not disturb the balance of stocks around the Island.

Mangrove Jack are great fighting fish. The challenge here is to prevent the fish from running too quickly for cover and loosing your rig. By keeping pressure on and steering the fish left and right while cranking the rod Noles made it look easy!
