I am a recreational angler who usually fishes for bluegill, perch, and bass in a small lake in West Michigan. This spring, for spring break, I am going to the bahamas, and where I am staying (Hope Town, the Abacos) I heard has excellent fishing from the dock. I have no idea how this type of fishing might differ from my usually area. I need a guide or website or just an answer that can explain differences in bait, tackle, methods, etc, and the size of fish I might be catching.

we fish a man-made lake surrounded by about 100 luxury houses. it is connected to a nearby river by two canals. some people say the fish caught from it (largemouth bass, crappies and catfish) are safe to eat but some others say that, because of the chemicals that people use on the landscaping in people’s backyards that can runoff into the lake, it is not safe. i’ve called the local county health department and they have no information. i don’t see how it’d be any more harmful than eating fish from the farm ponds and sloughs here in the california central valley (which people do all the time).

Has anyone ever been fishing there? I know that there are no motorized boats allowed, I would like to take my kayak. Is it just bass and catfish, or are there any stripers or sandies or crappie?

I know that it is illegal to keep game fish in an aquarium such as largemouth bass and bluegills. Since peacock bass is a game fish (but not in California) I wonder if it is legal to keep one.
