Things To Expect When Deep Sea Fishing

The wind in your hair, the spray of saltwater over the bow, the anticipation of a monstrous tug at the end of your tackle, the thought of catching something that would take more than 5 people to carry, that image of showing a picture of you and a fish with a body length longer than yours. Nausea?Hopefully not. Here are 9 other things you might expect on your deep sea fishing trip.

1. Nothing shallow. As the word deep means, you will be setting off on a boat to deeper waters that are more than 30 meters deep. This will definitely bring you a certain distance away from dry land so make sure you have everything you need with you.

2. Expect that your fishing expedition will be dependent on weather conditions; a wind that adversely affects the water's wave strength plays a great role in navigation. Your skipper will tell you more about this as deep sea fishing is inherently dangerous. But given the right precautionary measures, risks are minimized. If your trip is canceled due to these reasons, no need to feel blue, fishing charters can immediately set your trip to another date and time so you can wet your line and enjoy it safely.

3. Deep sea boats are much bigger than the ones used for inshore fishing. They are made of sturdier quality to be able to withstand the elements of the open sea such as strong winds and waves. They are also made larger to accommodate those hundred-pound monsters that your tackle will hook.

4. Deep sea fishing is more physical than inshore fishing. If you are accustomed to sitting on your buttocks with one hand on the pole and the other with a can of beer, think again. Deep-sea fishing will take more than all hands on deck. When you hook that first catch, it will be more than a jerk you can handle with one hand. The fish are bigger and swim stronger than inshore fish.

5. Different sets of rods. Deep-sea fishing utilizes the same equipment only with different specs. The tackle is more tolerant to seawater as salt tends to cause corrosion faster compared to normal inshore or freshwater equipment. Lines are made more durable to withstand the game weight and pull. Multiplier reels also take place of the conventional reel to eradicate friction. The different gears let you have a more stable and stronger hold of your line as you reel your 100 pounders out of the water and onto your boat.
