Want to fish Bimini?

Well… you might want to do so quickly before every last mangrove in Bimini is taken out, filled in and turned into golf courses and resorts… because the world doesn’t have enough golf courses.

I found this little video of Bonefish Ebbie talking about the Bimini Bay development that is dredging up bonefish habitat to make way for pure and bottled greed.

Read more about the badness that is this Bimini Development.

Bonefish Ebbie can be found here.

WTF?!! Bow hunting bones in Bimini?

I saw this video, which shows a total fuqueing douchebag with a bow trying to kill a bonefish in Bimini.  He missed.  The douchebagocity of this just leaves me speechless.  This guy is mayor of Douchebagville, a town in the country of Douchebagistan.

(looks like the Mayor took his video down… good call)

Seriously… WTF?!

Here is a little story about a trip to Bimini by Kyle Rimkus for ESPN.  This is a mixed bag of bait and flies and the guide has one of those famous bonefish names, Rolle.  If it seems like all the guides in the Bahamas are related, that’s because they probably are.  Only just over 200,000 people call the Bahamas home.

Fred isn’t cheap… $600 for a full day.

Bimini is the closest of the Bahamian Islands to the US… only 50 miles.   You could practically swim there.

Bimini in Peril

The never-ending string of good news just keeps on coming.  This time it is about Bimini… over-development… taking paradise and crushing it under the weight of “progress.”  Do we really need a golf course on every island?  When I become the Leviathan, this sort of thing will stop (and I’ll be allowed to fish in Cuba too).
