There are over 200 square miles of pristine water on the Northwest side of Grand Bahama Island. These offer unlimited opportunities for flats fishing. The waters support large numbers of sport fish, including: bonefish, permit, barracuda, jacks, snapper, sharks, and tarpon. The pinder brothers boast average size bonefish is 4-7 pounds. This area has had very little fishing pressure which contributes to the large numbers and size of fish being caught.
Our boats offer you maximum comfort and safety. They are 16" fiberglass Dolphin super skiffs. These state of the art flats boats have no option overlooked. They are equipped to comply with U.S. Coast Guard standards and are powered by 85 Horsepower outboards. The Dolphins offer the angler an opportunity to fish in extremely shallow water and provide the stability required for excellent and accurate casting. Our boats have: * Stationary lean bars * Built in rod holders * Comfortable seats and carpeted walls * Polling platforms * Cell phones (for the event of an unlikely emergency)
Our guides, the Pinder brothers, have been fishing for two generations, with over 60 years of combined experience. Grand Bahama Bonefishing offers you rare and unusual talents. David Jr., Jeffery, and Joseph Pinder are names familiar to anglers throughout the bonefishing world. Our guides have been featured on the REEL GUYS on ESPN. Their unsurpassed knowledge and understanding of bonefishing, jovial nature, and excellent communication skills make for a very exciting day on the water for anglers of all casting abilities.

There is also the opportunity to wade fish on a number of firm, sandy flats. A delicious buffet breakfast is served at Broadleaf Willy's in your hotel, beginning at 6:30am.
