I am getting one of those kits. This is going to ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What are you going to do when you catch a lionfish? Or a moray eel? I have been wondering that myself...
Read these & now I may sneak my backpack fishing kit into the "bring back" suitcase - the one that will start out empty cept for big liquids we cant carry on there (sunscreen/aloe) or back (Appleton, etc). Just learned that the couple we were thinkin bout gettin a charter with went and booked througn the AIO they are getting married at, at like $200 a head. Not sure we could (or would want to) join them at that price, but if the boat isn't full maybe we could deal direct with the charter just to tick 'em off when they learn the "right" price. Was thinkin on the more authentic deal with Duke - wonder if he would mind taking the Winterfresh up the river, or a reel not made out of a 2-liter?

My personal experience was awesome fun. The boys at the craft Market at the bridge if you walk down the steps by bridge and walk straight back you will see big stands and fisherman bringing in monster size fish. They will take you fishing and clean it and cook it or you can buy meals of the fish and pick out your fish from what they bring in. This is a big area just beyond craft stalls basically right under bridge with large numbers of fishers cleaners etc.. there no need for worry less you flashing gold, diamonds and $100 wads just like anywhere else. Famous Vincent would be a great link up as well his number is listed on boards. Many fishing charters along main beach also they bring poles bait etc...
I often time see people fishing from shore and cliffs but have never seen a tourist catch anything from shore.
Thanks for all the great info! See you there ShellyK!
for some true sport fishing........go out with Capt Stanley and catch some big ones........

i will be bringing my rod and reel with a assortment of crankbaits, and tube jigs, hooks, sinkers , we will be at ROOMS feb 3rd -19, soon come
I've never tried the river;that could be cool. But, the off shore fishing is not very good (I'm being kind), Closer in, i have snorkled the reefs a lot and nothing I've seen there would be attractive to me (99.9% small fish). If you want to have offshore sportfishing for your trip, there are some really good spots in the Caribbean; but Jamaica ain't one of them! Respect
