Need to fish
Posted: Fri Oct 12, 2007 11:04 pm
Hi,
My wife and I will be in Tobago (Grafton area) for 2 weeks from the 3rd of Nov and I'm wondering if anyone would like to share a fishing trip. My wife is happy doing some shore fishing together (we are usually on a beach or pier at around 0530) but is not wild about the idea of going to sea.
I'd like to go out with one of the local guys aiming for Tuna, Grouper etc (as opposed to deep sea sport fishing) but would enjoy the company of a likeminded visitor. This is my third trip to Tobago and I do have a little experience of fishing there - most of it gleaned from the very experienced contributors to this site. I know a couple of the local fishermen who offer this type of fishing and would be keen to share a trip with someone in a similar position - ie need to get out in a boat but has a partner who is a little less enthusiastic
This is beginning to feel a bit like an ad for a dating agency so perhaps I should add that I have a GSOH (is that good sense of humour or standard of health? - I've always wondered), own home, driver and non-smoker. Looking for short term relationship with someone whose interests include, reels, ragworm and Rapalas.
On our previous trips my son, who is 18 and a fishing nut, has always accompanied me but he is now at university and unable to join us – he will be grinding his teeth when we actually leave as, like the rest of my family, he loves Tobago.
So, excuse the ramble and let me know if you fancy a day or half-day in a boat with one of the local guys.
I do seem to remember a forum on myTobago for this sort of thing but couldn’t find it – maybe I imagined it or haven’t looked properly to find it.
Regards
Barry
