Fishing Trips Offered
Here is a brief summary of the 2 main kinds of fishing trips that we can offer most of the year. In a lot of ways they are similar to hunting.
Trip 1) Sitting at a buoy waiting for a fish to show up. Is like hunting from a tree stand or hunting on a game ranch. It’s not the most sporting because you are sitting around a buoy waiting for something to find you. Just like in hunting it can be very effective- if the fish pass by your stand. It’s a good way to “guanentee” that you will catch something because more often than not there are small fish hanging around the buoys. But how are you going to catch a big fish if you always have a small rod with and are targeting small fish??
The pros- More consistent action, everyone gets to pull on a fish or 2 or 3 or 10.
The cons-Smaller fish and a lot less “sport”. Did you really come deep sea fishing to catch a 3 pound fish?
Trip 2) Go out and find the fish! This is our favorite style for fishing. It is similar to stalking big game in the woods in that we are constantly moving around looking for signs that will lead us to a real trophy for our anglers. While we are on the move, the big lures are in position hoping to raise a monster. With this type of fishing we can easily cover 40-60 miles of water in a day. That means we are constantly going to new areas where we could find fish. Generally the fish we find out in the open are more aggressive and readily willing to attack a lure or bait. The anticipation of what could happen at any moment is truly what offshore fishing is all about. |
