Does anybody know anything about the fishing (any kind) in St. Lucia, particularly feb/march? Thanks

We have an advertiser from St. Lucia, Hackshaw's Boat Charters

Click here to view their listing (info and pictures)

Their ad says "Though each fish species is generally seasonal, for example, February to May for Wahoo and Dorado, and August to December for Blue Marlin, Sail Fish and Yellow Fin Tuna, we do have these fish year round, thus making these trips always popular and exciting."

I think Hackshaw's & Capt Mike's are related. I fished in November and was very happy with the trip.

SPORT FISHING

Bruce is the fanatic here, this guy hates to return without a catch! Both he and Andrew have been fishing since they were knee high to a grasshopper so very few can beat their knowledge of sport fishing around St.Lucia and the Windward Islands! The Trophies are there to prove their worth. If you are professional -- great -- if not don't worry, we'll show you the ropes of this exhilarating sport, you couldn't be in better hands, so come and join the masters and see what you can land! Captain Mike's currently holds the record for landing a 940lb blue marlin in January 2000!
