Wade for bonefish along most Bahamian beaches but you better be prepared. The smaller bonefish are not picky about what they eat but that doesn’t mean you can throw just anything at them. The bigger bones are a bit more seasoned and know what they want. This is proven seection from our experts after years of trial and error.
