Exhibit 99.1

BIMINI MORTGAGE MANAGEMENT, INC.
DECLARES FOURTH QUARTER 2005 CASH DIVIDEND

VERO BEACH, Fla. (November 30, 2005) — Bimini Mortgage Management, Inc. (NYSE:BMM), a real estate investment trust that invests in residential mortgage-related securities and originates loans through its taxable REIT subsidiary, Opteum Financial Services, today announced that its Board of Directors has declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.14 per share on the Company’s Class A and Class B Common Stock for the quarter ending December 31, 2005.  The dividend is payable December 29, 2005, to stockholders of record on December 12, 2005.

The Board of Directors anticipates that this dividend will be paid entirely from its REIT taxable income.

Bimini Mortgage Management, Inc. invests primarily in residential mortgage-related securities issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) and the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae).  It earns returns on the spread between the yield on its assets and its costs, including the interest expense on the funds it borrows. The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, which means the Company is not required to pay federal income taxes on the REIT taxable earnings which are currently distributed to its shareholders. Its Opteum Financial Services subsidiary is a national mortgage lender offering a wide array of home mortgage products.
