    Exclamation Grouper Fishing

    So i really want to get into some groupers, but me and my partner have never done it before so getting started has been a little tough. Chartering a trip is a little out of our price range, but we are hoping we can find someone to take us out for bait and gas, and show us how to get started. The expenses would be on us so if anyone is interested, please let me know.

    Thanks!

    Tyson-

    You may want to check with some of the local Capts. in your area and see if you could hire them for a day or two to run your boat.

    There are a few guys down this way that offer that and for a couple hundred bucks, you get their service plus at least one good number in your GPS. I'm sure you could find somebody by you that will do that also.

    Well, I'll ask for him then, is anyone in the Norfolk area, or anyone willing to travel to the Norfolk area, interested in taking Tyson offshore to catch some Grouper on his boat? If so, just name your price, but please be reasonable.

    it is a little more complicated...he doesn't own a boat, he wants to someone to run him out for gas money and bait. i have passed my walk on rates but if anyone is running a split cost trip they might be good for it.

    Got to be careful about a private boat (w/o Capt license) and taking a person out fishing with the expectation of a certain type of fishing for money. You could cross the line in the eyes of the USCG and be charged for chartering w/o a license. Doesn't sound like he wants to charter at charter prices so just be careful about setting up a private boat to be charged with this offense.

    I have my license so that is not a issue with me, I just don't charter for a living, I charter to offset the costs which still doesn't work/
