[dropcap]W[/dropcap]e are having summer in February y’all! No strong cold front as yet, so the water temperature is great for fishing. You may know that the fish here in the Bahamas do not like cold water, so the fish are happy and showing it. The flats are full of live bonefish, permit, rays, barracuda and many more. This is a good time for the channels and reefs too for those who like to do that kind of fishing. Normally at this time of year, we fish the open flats to find the warmer water because of the cold temperatures. But not this year, even in the creeks here on Grand Bahama, the fishing is good. This is a great time to plan a trip. Fly fishing, spin fishing, all fishing welcome. Let’s do this, come on, let me hook you up!
