Next Up - Harbour Island

The women like Harbour Island for its pink sand beaches and great restaurants. Bahamas Billfish Championship anglers, on the other hand, like Harbour Island for the excellent BBC_Silver fishing. And information just received from the Island indicates that this May should be no exception. Capt. Rich Helmuth on the Wani Kanati reports that billfish action has been good at James Point, Shallow Ground and Dutch Bar.

The Harbour Island resorts are ready for the influx of BBC boats and guests. Valentine's Marina topped-off their tanks to be certain the BBC teams have no shortage of fuel. The anglers meeting and opening dinner will once again be overlooking the beach at Coral Sands. Valentine's will be co-sponsoring a cocktail reception on Tuesday evening. And Romora Bay's Sunset Restaurant will be the site of the awards ceremony and dinner.

Pandemonium and Blue Eagle will not be fishing the second leg at Harbour Island. So the chase for the Championship title is wide open. For this reason, the BBC is waiving the late entry penalty for the Harbour Island Championship. The entry fee is $3,000 and there is still time to register and slips are available at all three marinas.
