Chris and Phillip Ryan just wrapped up their first trip to the saltwater flats while guests at the Palometa Club. We are still waiting on some more images, but Chris and Phillip managed 5 PERMIT one day, 2 the next inclusive of a Grand Slam. Again, first ever saltwater fishing trip and they are completely [...]
FALL SEASON OPENS NOVEMBER 1ST We will once again be opening up for seven weeks of autumn fishing starting on November 1, 2013. The plan is to stay open until December 19, 2013, close back down for the holidays, and then reopen again (as usual) for the duration of the 2014 campaign, January 3 – [...]
(L) Gorge 11 years with Dick, (Middle) Koreano 11 years with Dick, Charlie 6 years with Palometa Club and Jose 2 years. It is hard to believe but it is true, after 9 hours on the water, polling boats and hunting for the elusive permit that these boys have the energy to suit [...]
They came VERY close but this week's group did not seal the deal on the 500th Permit today, so the opportunity passes to a whole new group of anglers arriving tomorrow. It certainly wasn't for lack of trying, or lack of fish. Eizo got back on the board today with his second fish, Wake got [...]
Oh baby, oh baby! Dave Staub final stayed glued today and landed a permit. Wake or "Lakey (lucky) Wake" as the guides have begun to call him, hooked FOUR and landed TWO. This could easily go down tomorrow. The guides are stoked, we're all stoked and the lucky anglers at The Palometa Club this week [...]
Lots of permit spotted today (Sunday, March 13) but just three scrappy ones fooled. First time saltwater fly fisherman Harry Popiel landed his first palometa, while father/son combo Steve and Steve Jr. Davenport each got on the board today. This brings our year-to-date count to 59 and our quest for 500 permit to [...]
ACT FAST, THIS WILL PROBABLY HAPPEN IN THE NEXT THREE WEEKS! We had 85 guests our first season when we opened The Palometa Club five years ago. Now we average twice that every year, but we still remain a small, exclusive fishing lodge dedicated to the highest level of service we can provide [...]
If you've been following the exploits of Anchorage, Alaskan angler Dr Joseph Seelig you'll know that he had a heck of a week a couple of weeks ago (see Feb 24 post). But what you don't know is that Joe didn't go home as planned, but instead decided to stay for awhile longer [...]
Is there anything that our guests like better than fishing when they are here at The Palometa Club? The answer to that is... probably not, however a close second is the food. So, what I've decided to do is deliver to you some of the recipes for the food that's prepared with care [...]
