Fly fishing rules ‘one of most important laws since Majority Rule’

Prescott Smith is quoted as saying "if two anglers are in a boat, they need a guide". The actual legislation says "person", not "angler". In other words, if I'm flats fishing from my boat with my wife (who does not fish) or my 2 year old son, I can now be taken to jail. Does this seem reasonable and visitor friendly? If you'd like to discuss this further, my family and our vacation money can now be reached in Hawaii, Mexico, Belize, the Christmas Islands, etc. where we are welcome and appreciated as visitors.

This article should have also sought input from the Abaco Fly Fishing Guides Association or the Bonefish and Tarpon Trust. It does nothing present to Bahamians the different views of this mess.
