Quality reading
What made me give only four was the lack of color pictures. The amount of information in this book is easily worth five stars. There are only few color pictures in the middle of the book and in the rest of the book pictures are black and white. Other notable thing is that the book is made considering americans and international travellers are only briefly mentioned.

Outstanding

Having been to some of the places described in the book, and fished with some of the guides described in the book, I can say first-hand it is right on the money. Stephen has set up a couple trips for me to the Bahamas, two very different types of trips, and I can tell you first hand that he and Kim know their stuff!

See that big guy on the poling platform on the cover? I had the privilege and pleasure of fishing with him. I'll trust nobody else to set up my Bahamas fly-fishing adventures, and this book is my first resource in planning my next trip.

Bahamas Flyfishing Bible
Read to plan, or just read to dream. This is not only the definitive flyfishing guide to the Bahamas, but also (i) a very insightful book on logistics and non-fishing pursuits on the islands; and (ii) one of the finest fishing guides written for any area in the world, which is an especially great accomplishment given the span of the area. Essential for anyone deciding on which island to go to, and which areas to fish. My only complaint? -- that I personally wasn't able to help research this book by visiting/fishing all areas covered.
