Andros Island Bonefish Club
Andros Island Bonefish Club, otherwise known as AIBC, is one of the classic bonefish lodges in the Bahamas. Rupert Leadon purchased the ocean side property where Cargill Creek flows into the Atlantic Ocean in 1984. Rupert spent the years before working at the naval base and seemed to be plucked from the base by eager fly fishermen seeking world class bonefish. Rupert’s friendly disposition and vast local knowledge made him the perfect candidate as a top notch local guide. This led to purchase of the property and the opening of AIBC. The lodge is perfectly situated to give the angler and guide easy access to the numerous flats found on the Atlantic side of Andros Island. Andros is the largest island in the Bahamas, yet one of the least populated islands as well, but certainly a famous destination for all bonefish junkies.

Fishing

Andros Island has long been renowned in bonefish circles as the place to find your trophy. The guides and guests at AIBC will often fish to schools numbering in the thousands, all fish averaging 3-5 pounds as well as double digit bonefish moving as singles and doubles. The lodge has access to numerous flats and bights. Famous targets like Yellow Cay, Pretty Creek and Land of the Giants are only a short distance away.  While bonefish are the main course for the fly fishermen, giant bonefish, tarpon, and permit are available on the west side of the island. Fishing is done on foot as well as from 16 ft well equipped skiffs complete with radios and other safety devices. With a barrier reef and the Tongue of the Ocean nearby the angler wanting something different can choose to fish off shore for grouper, sailfish, wahoo, marlin, dorado, kings, mackerel, and tuna weather permitting. The possibilities seem endless at AIBC.

Accommodations

The lodge itself stretches over a quarter mile of the ocean side property therefore giving each room an ocean side view. Each room is clean, lightly decorated and is equipped with air conditioning, ceiling fan, private bath and mini-fridge. The lodge has 29 rooms and can accommodate any number of group configurations with plenty of single rooms, double rooms and 2 triple rooms. The lodge also offers a pool, large patio, satellite television and a full service bar that seems to be the perfect place to end the day and ponder the vast number of salt water fishing luminaries that have sat and enjoyed the same sunset.
