Fishing in Bermuda questions & any suggestions?

[friday109]

We will be in Bermuda in October & a few of us want to do some fishing.  We are not looking to CHARTER the whole boat for a full or half day.

We would just like to book 3 or 4 of us on a fishing trip. 

 

Any recommendations? 

I remember seeing signs along the dock in Hamilton for fishing excursions. Does anyone have experience just walking up to these boats and going out fishing?  I usually do a lot of research on things, but there is no way to research these.  I seem to be only finding fishing charters - to charter the whole boat.

 

any thoughts and / or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank You

Bonnie

Sounds like Jolly Roger Reef Fishing would be what you would want. Website below. They also book thru the Island Tour Center.

Hi Bonnie, I was there in July. I rented a 17' CC from H20 Watersports. It was $200 for 5 hrs. I brought my own fishing rod/reel, and bought tackle from the marina store there in the Navy Yard. I bought some frozen squid from the boat rental place, and they gave me a knife, board, and bait bucket. It turned out they also had fishing equipment I could have used, but I just didn't know that beforehand. I caught a gray mackerel and a couple of chubs.
