Exactly Dillytree...nobody is complaining about having to buy a license...they just need to make it as simple as possible. As you said...the biggest threat to the bonefishing industry is Bahamians netting bonefish....notice Prescott Smith never addresses that issue.
You can blather all you want about lines etc in other countries....its totally irrelevant. The fact is that 90% of the people in the lines at LPIA are tourists.....and many of those in that line will rremember the hassle when they next book a vacation, and go elsewhere. So never forget that the biggest generator of income in the Bahamas is tourism and these days the Bahamas cannot afford to take any more hits in that sector.
