Bonefishing

Andros is the bonefishing capital in the world. Bonefishing has become a local favorite within The Islands Of The Bahamas. Bonefishing takes place in the flats where guides slowly pole small flat-bottomed boats for anglers, or the truly dedicated quietly stalk these elusive fish by wading through knee-deep water. These quicksilver fighters, weighing up to 15 pounds, inspire both fly fishermen and spin casters alike with their power and speed.Unpredictable and sneaky, the bonefish are often found in schools of 100 or more, making for exciting bursts of action. Don’t try to eat these bottom skimmers or you’ll quickly realize how they got their name.
