What Lies Above is a fly fishing film that tells the story of a unique change in the feeding behavior of an Atlantic permit along the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. An increase in the amount of a floating seaweed called Sargassum being driven into the coastline is creating havoc with tourism and the environment as it piles up and rots. However, a crab that dwells within it, a crab that lives in this floating mass now become a regular food source, and the permit in Xcalak, Mexico have learned to hunt it on the water’s surface. Join Chase Looney and guide Raul Sanchez on the hunt for permit on the surface in this extraordinary town.
