Here are some Earth Day suggestions:
Get out early and listen to the birds. They have lots to say first thing in the morning.
Go for a sunrise beach walk. Take a bag with you and fill it with trash on your way back.
Take the dog to a new park. Heck, take the kids to the park too!
Go snorkeling in the nearest body of water. What is there to be discovered?
Count the turtle nests at <a href="http://www.guyharveyoutpost.com/destinations/florida/st-pete-beach.html">Guy Harvey Outpost, St. Pete Beach</a>
Lie on your back in the sand and let it the grains fill the voids to support you.
<a href="http://ghofish.com/">Go Fish</a>!
Enjoy your church’s Earth Day activities.
Bike a new trail, take a different route.

![](mailto:?subject=2015 Bonfire Series Is Off to a Red Hot Start at Old Bahama Bay&body=
Sharkbait kicked off the 2015 <a href="http://www.guyharveyoutpost.com/2015-burning-wahoo-tournament/overview.html">Guy Harvey Outpost Bonfire Series </a>on day one as the first boat to weigh fish. Their five largest wahoo totaled out at 182.3 pounds with their biggest tipping the scales at 44.1 pounds. Side Show weighed in with a 52.0 pound wahoo to push their way to the top of the Largest Fish category.
A succession of boats weighed fish but none displaced Sharkbait until the second hour of weigh-in when Fishin A' Loan brought five large wahoo to the scales. To heighten the drama, Fishin A' Loan weighed their smallest fish first and the largest last. They had three fish over 50 pounds including the largest of the day at 63.9 pounds. Their total weight for day one was 239.8 pounds!
The drama did not stop there as local favorites Matchless arrived at the weigh station just minutes before the closing bell at 5pm. Their three fish totaled 87.8 pounds to put them in third place at the end of day one.
As the evening festivities began the wind began to build. Day two would prove to be more challenging fishing. All the boats got out and the leaders put in extra effort trying to take advantage of the "No limits," fishing. Sharkbait was first back to the weigh station with one wahoo that just missed the 20-pound minimum weight and a Pelagic Slam of Dolphin, Tuna & Kingfish. Their aggregate total did not change but no team had a better time.
<a href="https://guyharveyoutpostblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/fishin-a-loan_2215-winners.jpg"><img class="size-large wp-image-2642" src="https://guyharveyoutpostblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/fishin-a-loan_2215-winners.jpg?w=550" alt="Winners: Team Fishin A' Loan with their day two (2) catch." width="550" height="396" /></a>Winners: Team Fishin A' Loan with their day two (2) catch.
All eyes were on Fishin A Loan, would they be able to add to their total or would another boat have the hot hand for day two? Again they were able to find the fish catching a 60.5 pounder to back up their day one lunker and four more for a total of 208.2 pounds on day two. This gave Fishin A Loan a two day total of 448.0 pounds and a substantial lead. Drama remained as Matchless once again was the last boat back to the dock with minutes to spare. A single 100-pounder could jump them in to Second Place. Alas it was not to be as they raced down the dock with a 36.0-pounder in arm bumping their total to 123.8 pounds and a solid Third Place finish.
Final Results
Winners: Fishin A Loan 448.0 pounds
Runners Up: Sharkbait 182.3 pounds
Third Place: Matchless 123.8 pounds
Fourth Place: Game Over 87.0 pounds
Fifth Place: Llangus 69.5 pounds

Known as one of the fastest fish in the ocean, wahoo don't last long on a dinner plate either. Capt. DiGiulian's class will teach anglers how to target and more consistently catch wahoo in the cooler months of the year. He is co-founder of the IGFA School of Sportfishing and has lectured on fishing techniques around the world through his <a href="http://www.saltwaterproconsulting.com/">Saltwater Professional Consulting</a>.

Unlike most locales where wahoo are often considered incidental catches due to their somewhat nomadic and loner nature, at <a href="http://www.guyharveyoutpost.com/destinations/bahamas/west-end-grand-bahama-island/overview.html">Old Bahama Bay, a Guy Harvey Outpost Expedition Lodge</a> they are caught consistently October to March. Double and triple headers of wahoo are relatively common during the season. One-hundred pounders are caught each year in the Bahamas. Wahoo grow quite large with the all tackle record reaching 184 pounds. Just north of <a href="http://www.guyharveyoutpost.com/destinations/bahamas/west-end-grand-bahama-island/overview.html">Old Bahama Bay </a>is the area known as "Wahoo Alley." This stretch, where the Little Bahama Bank meets the Gulfstream, gets special recognition on fishing charts. Wahoo also make great table fair and can be found at your local sushi bar as Ono. To celebrate WAHOO Season, Guy Harvey Outpost is hosting the <a href="http://ghofish.com/">Wahoo Bonfire Festival and Tournament </a>at Old Bahama Bay February 26th - March 1st 2015. The Wahoo Bonfire Festival will feature a variety of activities including a Burning Wahoo Sculpture by artist Bobby Little.

The Wintertime Wahoo Techniques class will be held at the <a href="http://igfa.org/">International Game Fish Association's </a> Headquaters in Dania Beach, FL. Cost per class is $100 USD for IGFA members and $150 USD for non IGFA members. The fee covers the cost of the class, course materials, and tackle used for activities during each class.

Ft. Lauderdale, FL — September 5, 2012— <a title="GHO web site" href="http://www.guyharveyoutpost.com/" target="_blank">Guy Harvey Outpost Resorts</a> announced today that the popular Old Bahama Bay Resort & Yacht Harbour is the newest member of the Expedition Properties Portfolio by Guy Harvey Outpost. Old Bahama Bay marks the third Outpost Expedition Property in the northern Bahamas since launching the program earlier this year.
Making the announcement today were Outpost co-founders Mark Ellert and Bill Shedd, along with James Culmer, the manager of Old Bahama Bay Resort & Yacht Harbour. “Old Bahama Bay is without question one of the most popular out-island marina resorts in the Bahamas, with world class fishing and legendary diving,” remarked Outpost President, Ellert. “It’s the front door to the Northern Bahamas for the entire eastern seaboard boating and fishing community, so Old Bahama Bay is a perfect complement to our other Outpost Expedition properties in the Abaco Islands .”
Bill Shedd, added “For Outpost, it’s important to promote the understanding and appreciation of a destination’s relationship to its larger marine ecosystem. From Old Bahama Bay on past the Green Turtle Club to the Blackfly Bonefish Lodge at the south end of Great Abaco island, there are well over 200 miles of shoreline, flats, reefs, coves and cays. Each is uniquely different, but together they make for a remarkably vibrant and diverse marine environment, offering great vacation and scientific opportunities.” The Shedd family legacy is written in conservation and marine education, having co-founded Sea World and the Hubbs Seaworld Research Institute, for which Bill Shedd serves as Board Chairman. Shedd is also owner of AFTCO, a fishing tackle industry leader.

Old Bahama Bay Resort and Yacht Harbour is located on West End, Grand Bahama Island, approximately 60 miles east of Palm Beach. The resort, with its 73 villas and full service marina, has recently reclaimed its operating independence after becoming associated with plans to redevelop two thousand acres of land once known as Jack Tar Village. The newly created management company, Island Ventures Resort & Club, Ltd., has installed James Culmer as Resort Manager.
“By teaming with Guy Harvey Outpost, we’re combining our top-of-class facilities and amenities with watersport enthusiasts and their families who are passionate about their time on, in, and around the water and their loyalty to Guy Harvey and his widely recognized brand of conservation, discovery and watersports adventure,“ noted Culmer in explaining the decision to affiliate with Outpost. “By joining Expedition Properties, Old Bahama Bay joins a select group of Outpost owners and operators who share this passion and loyalty and we look forward to working with Guy and his Outpost properties to bring his message of discovery to an ever expanding audience.”
Culmer also announced that Old Bahama Bay is celebrating their new affiliation with Outpost offering dockage at $1.00 per foot and room rates of $150.00 per night - with a third night free - from September 4th through October 31, 2012. “It’s our back to school special,” Culmer quips. “We’re back in class, so to speak, with old friends and some new faces. Today we’re learning everything we can about Guy’s vast world of science and discovery, and tonight’s homework assignment is to put that knowledge to work developing some exciting and unique fall and spring fishing and diving activities!” https://guyharveyoutpostblog.com/old-bahama-bay-resort-joins-guy-harvey-outpost/){kind=link}
