Bair's Lodge Sitting Area

Bair's Lodge is located at Little Creek between Kemps Bay and Mars Bay, on South Andros Island.

Andros Island has been the name synonymous with the biggest bonefish, and South Andros has built a reputation over the years as being the location for "Giant" bonefish. Names like Grassy Creek, Deep Creek, Little Creek, Water Cays and the Curley Cut Cays are linked to sight fishing for some of the world's biggest bonefish. With some of the least fished flats of Andros and access to the fabled West Side, Bair's represents the ultimate for sight fishing for big bonefish.

This old time favorite is under new ownership and management. A few years ago, Nervous Waters purchased Bair's Lodge (Formerly Bair Bahama Guest House). Nervous Waters is the same company that owns and operates the world famous Kau Taupen, Villa Maria, Toon Ken, Bella Vista and Pira Lodge (all in Argentina). Nervous Waters acquired Bair's Lodge as part of a drive to expand their business on an international level.

After an ambitious remolding program, the "new" Bair's Lodge accommodates just 12 anglers. In addition to cleaning up the lodge and grounds from "ship to stern", silent air conditioning units have been added in all bedrooms and the living room plus, all of the bedrooms have private baths. This is one of the nicest and most comfortable fishing lodge in the Bahamas.

New skiffs, with a first class team of guides will provide an exceptional fishing experience. Your fishing schedule can be tailored to suit your needs,though generally a typical day will start with breakfast at 7 am, fishing beginning at 8 and ending between 4 and 5 pm. Picnic lunches and cold drinks are taken to the flats in a cooler by your guide. Like most quality lodges, Bair�s Lodge is a strict catch and release fishery.

Anglers will appreciate the fly-tying table and a loaner rod service. And, Bair's has a fully stocked shop with rods, reels, flies and other necessary fishing equipment, as well as gifts, some flats wear and local crafts.
