Fishing in Leeward Islands makes for perfect bone fishing !
The crystal-clear, sparkling water that surrounds the Leeward Islands islands draws onlookers of every kind. Some visitors are simply satisfied to view the startlingly blue waters from the sandy shores, while others are drawn out onto the sea. The Leeward Islands is home to some of the world's most popular fishing and sailing destinations, and visitors who choose to spend some island time on the sea with a chartered boat leave with experiences that are completely unforgettable. The waters that surround the Leeward Islands islands are home to several types of fishing because of the vast differences in the underwater landscapes of the region. Some fish favor the shallow island edges; others are the bright fish of the coral reefs that have grown over centuries along the edges of some volcanic islands. There are also the large sport fish of the deeper waters that sportsmen travel from around the world to capture. From shallow shores to gorgeous reefs to deep water, there are plenty of fish in every region and plenty of people willing to try their hand at hooking one. The shallow water fish of the region are said to be the pound-for-pound best fighters of all fish. These are called bonefish, and their species include tarpon, permit, pompano, wahoo, and the famous barracuda. Bonefish can be caught from the beach or from a small boat in many of the shallow waters of the Leeward Islands. Fishing from the shore can be less costly for budget-conscious travelers because there is no need for boat rental. It can be done as well from aboard a sailboat, which many resorts offer as part of your stay. Live bait such as conch or squid is the best bet for reef fishermen looking to catch some very interesting fish. The most common fish in these areas are the grouper, mutton snapper, yellowtail snapper, and jack crevalle. Deep sea and game fishermen will enjoy the plentiful populations of billfish, marlin, wahoo, kingfish, swordfish, yellowfin tuna, and sailfish found in the Leeward Islands. There are many varieties of these deep water fish just off the shores where the sea floor drops down, so fishing can take place as close to a quarter of a mile from the islands. When going out fishing, you'll especially need to keep in mind the cost of a boat charter that will take you out for the day. Deep-sea charters begin at about $400(USD) for a half day of fishing, and a full day may run you up to $1,000(USD). Offshore charters are slightly more affordable, ranging from $325(USD) to $650(USD) for a half day. A full day of bone and reef fishing can run between $300(USD) and $600(USD) generally, though a half-day is just $200(USD) to $400(USD). Meanwhile, a bonefishing guide will cost approximately $250(USD) per half day, per two people. These guides will help the unfamiliar find the fish they want to catch and can be helpful.
