Thread: Fishing tomorrow!

Not sure that I would be impressed with a hired skipper etc having a fish for themselves if I was paying the bill. Unless they were invited to do so

It entirely depends on the circumstances. Every single guy on the boat was an experienced fisherman. The only assistance they required and asked for was when the inevitable school sharks turned up and they wanted to keep them. I actually got my ears chewed when I tried to help one of them with his rig as he had his hooks on backwards. One of his mates had changed his hooks around and threaded them on backwards when he was using the head. His mate was the one that did the chewing lol. All they wanted was the skipper to put them on the fish which we did. They are a regular crew and extremely competitive with each other.
