Peacock Bass Pre-Trip Guide
Sample Itineraries
Acute Angling is focused on making your travel itineraries as comfortable and practical as possible. With that in mind, we have become experts at managing the vagaries of airline travel, hotel reservations, transfers and charters.
Have you tried to make sense of the wildly gyrating airline industry lately? Routes and schedules change as fast as airline policies and procedures. As a result, optimizing travel to exotic destinations is a constant challenge. Acute Angling, together with our travel industry partners, automatically plans standard itineraries and reserves travel arrangements for each angler on all of our planned trips.
We'll take care of the details and make sure you have a comfortable and practical itinerary without the hassle of dealing with the airlines. You can stay focused on landing big, aggressive, tackle-busting peacock bass on your fishing trip of a lifetime.
Need something different? We'll work to help you arrange it. Making a side-trip? We'll arrange the connections. Using airline miles? Simply let us know and we'll release the reservations after you've confirmed your alternate travel.
