Staying for a week in Nassau for Xmas at paradise island curious who’s had experience fishing here either solo or with a guide. Looking at the google machine there looks to be some nice spots to bring a fly rod or light travel soin gear. Any intel is greatly appreciated. Happy thanksgiving to everyone

Haven't been there, but everywhere else we have been in the Bahamas, small yellow bucktails and small metals catch everything that swims around there. Small hooks and squid or ballyhoo for bottom fishing.

I'll be at Atlantis in mid January... I have no knowledge of the local fishing opportunities so I did some googling myself... seems like Atlantis frowns on fishing from their beaches but it's not clear if it's officially a no no...

Two things - not exactly fishing but highly recommended. Go on the excursions where you can snorkel the reefs - there are several in and around PI. I don't know if they have any local but I super highly recommend the feeding the stingrays trip.

Awesome thanks guys. I’ll be sure to report back after the holidays how I made out. A co workers college roomate lives on island and is going to take me out in his boat for a day and will have some local intel for me as well.

We did the dolphin experience at their private island as an excursion from a cruise last winter and it was awesome. Spent about an hour in the pen with them. Laid flat on the surface and two of them push you by your feet like a speed boat across the pen. Highly recommend it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ow8sn1WEdoQ
