Recreational boat fishing

Though they differ in design and purpose and prices vary widely they are generally expensive to build and maintain.

It is often a pastime of the affluent, and there is a demand for charter boats equipped and catered to luxurious excess.

Offshore game fish, like marlin and tuna, can be very large and heavy tackle is needed.

Baits are the same as for inshore fishing and include squid and whole mackerel as well as artificial lures such as perks.

Fishing takes place over reefs and wrecks for very large cod, ling and congers.
