Post your details if you'd like to link up with others for
fishing trips or days out. If it's a specialised fishing activity then you may
be better to post in the appropriate forum. Landbased, jigging, free-diving and
spearfishing, gamefishing, kayak fishing.
NB: This IS NOT a forum for people to be running
non-commercial charter-like businesses and soliciting paying passengers, as it
is a requirement that boats be in survey and MSA approved for charter activity.
