Re: This has to be said.
I have done a number of open boat charters in the past and definitely see its place in the business for various reasons already mentioned and appreciate it very much.
Yes, it must have been a PIA for the captain's part to work with 6 unproven individuals rather than a single party, but I think those everyday captains would rather take 6 individual anglers than no charter. Plus, I've seen a few open boat customers becoming regulars. |

Re: This has to be said.
I hope everybody who supports the open boat format, calls and books a trip for this weekend. The forecast looks good and the fish need to be taught a lesson !

Re: This has to be said.
To each his own of course.. I give credit to charters that run open.. They need to keep the lights on, and pay the mortgage.. Better to sail than to sit, even if its not a "big money" day...
Of course, if an established captain has a steady charter only clientele with lots of repeat business, and doesn't need to run open, thats great as well.. Let me add a personal experience.. I tried getting a charter together a few months ago.. Started in January for a late June charter, to assure ample time.. Between, all the "maybes", "we'll see", "I"ll let you know", "ask me again when the day is closer".. No one wanted to drive down, spend $100 for the boat beer and food, etc etc.. BULLSHIT!@... I contacted the Mimi, got the ball rolling, and one by one, most crapped out when it was time to send in the deposit.. Second time this has happened.. NEVER again.. I do plan a trip aboard the Mimi this season when bottom fishing heats up, On a day they run open,but I will go alone, or bring my son, or a friend from work. Of course I will reserve a space.. or two,, I am grateful there are charter boats that go out "open" when not chartered.. Better fishing, less crowded, more individual attention to detail due to a much smaller group.. Whats not to like?.. Its probably worth the increased fare most of the time.. I hope to explore a few "ooen charters" this year.. bob |
