BIMINI HOMESITE
As superb as the deep-sea fishing is off Bimini, the bonefishing is no less remarkable. It’s not due to the Gulf Stream this time, but Bimini’s other dramatic natural feature – hundreds of square miles of flats washed by Perrier-clear shallows. How good is the sport? Suffice to say, four out of the six I.G.F.A. (International Game Fish Association) World Bonefish Records (13-16 pounds) have been set in these waters. Those in search of fly fishing’s ultimate challenge (the bonefish is considered the finest fighting fish pound for pound), can sign up for an hour’s instruction, a half-day, or full-day with boat, guide and gear. The season runs all year round.
