It conjures up an image of a Bahamas fishing vacation usually consisting of a quest for one of the most elusive and exciting game fish in the world, the bonefish. Although deep sea fishing is also popular here, fly fishing for the bonefish is almost the national sport. Two bonefish can even be found swimming around on the surface of the Bahamian ten cent coin.
