Big game fishing on Bimini

What do Ernest Hemingway, Howard Hughes, Richard Nixon and Adam Clayton Powell, Jr all have in common? At one time, they were all "hooked" on Bimini for its unparalleled big-game fishing.

The Biminis have long been known as the big-game fishing capital of The Islands of the Bahamas. The only island group in the 700-island chain whose deep-water side faces west, the Biminis stretch across the Gulf Stream. These waters are rich in tropical fish such as wahoo, marlin and sailfish.
