CHRISTMAS ISLAND
The Season

tons of bonefish big and smallChristmas Island is so close to the equator that the weather is virtually the same all year long.  There is no rainy season, no time too cool, too hot.  The fish are there every week of the year without fail.   The tides are a little over analyzed here, it is that true certain tides will cause some big fish to school up on Paris Flat just after a full moon, but what you don't hear is that there will always be another boat on that flat which to me cancels out the benefit of having larger fish congregating.  The overall fishing is much more dependent on other factors you can't plan for such as wind and sun. When we compare weeks with big tides against weeks with small tides the results are the same.  Big tides tend to give you hot fishing for a few hours while even tides give you more steady fishing.  There are low tide flats, incoming tide flats, outgoing flats and flats that are only good around a full moon, there are flats that are still incoming while another flat has been outgoing for an hour.  The lagoon is vast and interconnected with cuts and channels that can lag by several hours.   We can provide you with tide charts so you can choose! We do offer a discount for fishing the summer months because less people tend to visit Christmas Island in the middle of the summer when fishing is good back home.

The chart says it all !
