Reasons To Get A Large Enough Group To Book A Solo Fishing Charter
When you're looking to sign up for a fishing charter, you'll often find that you need to share the boat with other fishing enthusiasts if your group is small. However, if you recruit enough people to join your group, you'll be able to book the charter exclusively for yourself and your group. It's often worthwhile to increase the size of your group; for example, if the charter company wants eight people per trip and you have five in your group, try to get three more friends or colleagues to join you. Here are some reasons why you'll appreciate having the charter exclusively for your group.
Easy To Make Unanimous Decisions
When you fish with a close-knit group, you can discuss your goals for the charter outing in advance. Doing so will allow everyone to get on the same page. For example, one goal might be to simply reel in the biggest fish possible, regardless of who actually catches it. Having this collective goal means that you can make specific requests to the charter captain — which is something that might be a challenge if you're sharing the outing with other people. If they want something different than your group wants, there might be a conflict.
Similar Mindsets On Ethical Practices
If you often fish with the same group of people, it's likely that you'll have similar views on the ethics of fishing. When you end up sharing a charter with another group, these beliefs won't always be shared, which could make you uncomfortable and lead to some actual arguments. While your fishing charter captain will ensure that no one on the vessel is breaking the local fishing regulations, you won't want to be around people who are committing ethical violations — for example, acting in a disrespectful manner toward the fish that they catch. When you book the charter exclusively for your group, you won't have to worry about this issue.
More Understanding With Certain Issues
Imagine being an hour into your fishing charter when one of the members of your group falls ill. You may want to have the vessel return to shore to drop this person off. However, if you're fishing with strangers and one of them is in the same situation, you likely won't be as patient while the charter travels back to shore. When you fish with your own group, you'll have a higher degree of understanding and patience for issues such as this one, which can help keep everyone happy on the big day out on the water.
