All About Bahamas Fishing Charters Experience

By Kerri Stout


The Bahamas is one of the best places to go to fish, and who does not like fishing? Bahamas fishing charters are available for hire to facilitate this trip. To book a fishing carter, call the captain to schedule your trip. Fishing gear such as rods, bait and tackle will be provided by the chartering company. The captain will also organize your meeting place.

You may choose from two types of charter boats. Voyage charters have the crew and supplies and may be used for scuba trips, catching fish or tours. Bare-boat do not have any crew or supplies, it is just the boat. The customers serve as crew as well as provide their own supplies. This type of chartering is not extended to everyone but only those who are competent.

Captains give their numbers so that potential customers are able to personally ask about their trips. Talk to the captain about expectation and ask about the trip information like dates and suitable weather. Remember boat captains require a license from the Coast Guard to operate. They are also tested for drugs on a random basis to ensure safety.

Vessels too have to have a license. Those carrying less than six people have to pass the tests by state inspection. Those with more than seven passengers operate only after a license has been issued from the US Coast Guard. In addition, the vessels are maintained and serviced on a regular basis. Everyone who goes to fish should be licensed with an exception of minors aged fifteen or less. You may find most boats selling these licenses on board at a small fee. For others, they do not sell and you have to buy elsewhere.

Individuals, families and groups may hire charter boats. You may also find special boats for the handicapped. Families with children may also hire a boat that takes the children into consideration. The parents have a chance to enjoy fishing while the children are taught and guided by the staff. Small tackles are availed for them so that they can take part.

Luxury vessels are available for hire for those who want to have a homely feel when fishing. They provide a comfortable way to cruise and fish in the ocean. They are equipped and designed to provide a home away from home scenario. You may find satellite TV, radios, movie libraries, living quarters as well as ice makers. It may be customized to your liking.

Vessels can also be booked for parties such as weddings and corporate fishing tournaments. Events such as group retreats and bonding for companies can be scheduled. After booking, a vessel to fit everyone is availed and the fishing trip planned to suit other scheduled activities such as conferences. Services such as conference halls and lunch boxes may also be availed.

Bring items such as sunglasses, sunscreen, cameras and medicines for motion sickness. When the trip is done and you wish to carry your fish home, the captain will facilitate this. They will personally clean the fish and package it for you. Besides, if you need it sent to you later they will arrange for shipping. With the right boat, you are signed up for a memorable experience.
