I would bet good money that Ernest Hemingway, while he was in Bimini back in the thirties, and then looked at Bimini in the 1980s would probably have thought well... There goes the neighborhood. Those were certainly his good days. And you know, when you stop to think about it, what rounds off an afternoon of fishing better than taking a machine gun and shooting at sharks? Sure can't do that stuff anymoreAll depends on your point of view and just when those good old days took place. Bimini right now are the good old days for someone who's out there today. Thanks for all your input
