[joe the plumber]

Chris,
There are no guides on the island I am aware of.I think you will will have to learn the island the way most of us have.The hard way.

PS. Read posts on this site about the island.Write down spots.Go out with a vehicle and a buddy.Get a map at the Star Dept Store.If they are not open,go to the airport,see if they have a map,have a coffee and ask a few questions.You will be on your way.

Spend some daytime hours scouting the island. Stop by Twin Maples in the New Harbor area, buy a lure, and talk to John, who has free maps of the island and may suggest a spot or two. Set out before dusk, work and area, and move on if it isn't productive. Some of the beaches on the east side are very easy to fish as are the coves on the west side. Most of the island is accessible, although some areas require more effort. You should find fish.
