Sportfishing allows you to interact with others and enjoy some adventurous outdoor time with your friends. You also get to catch your food, enjoy a magnificent view of the sea, and catch a glimpse of those gorgeous fish and dolphins.
Here’s what makes a great trip.
The Right Gear
Before everything, you need to know where exactly you’re going, which species you’re going for, and what do you expect from the water. These parameters help you gather the right gear for your fishing trip. The sooner you do your research, the better it is—especially if you need to purchase some new equipment.
As a passionate angler, you might already have bait, reel, and line. However, deep-sea fishing requires more sophisticated equipment, including spears, gaffs, tackle boxes, sinkers, floats, traps, and waders. Baits are often particular and vary across different species. You also need something to store up your catches. It will also help if you stock up on some navigational equipment and GPS systems to help you find the rich spots.
The weather matters!
A smart angler always knows what they’re getting into. Don’t forget to check the weather forecasts before heading to the Baja waters. You can delay your trip a few days if the forecast mentions rough winds—you won’t be able to catch any fish anyway.
If the temperature is expected to drop a few degrees, you’ll know what kind of jackets to carry. If it’s expected to get hotter, it’ll help to keep sunscreen. Weather changes in the sea are very unpredictable. What starts as a pleasant morning can quickly turn into a rainy evening. It always helps to prepare for the unexpected. Pack an umbrella, a pair of boots, and a hat just in case.
A Luxury Yacht
There is a lot more to a fishing trip than just fishing. Chartering a luxury yacht means a seasoned chef will dish out some fantastic food for you while you watch the sunset by the gallery, and there will be lots of exciting water toys at your disposal. You also get to go off the beaten path and discover new fishing spots and unchartered waters. The captain will know where to find the best catch and steer the yacht to help you make the most out of your money.
Luxury yacht rentals also have ample comfortable space for you and your family to enjoy some time together. Riding a luxury yacht is also an unmatched status symbol. You might even be able to catch the glorious sunset view for your Instagram feed!
