What Is A Split Fishing Charter?
So what is a split fishing charter? It is a deep sea fishing charter where solo anglers pay for a seat on a boat rather than for the entire charter, and are matched up with other anglers. These charters accommodate a max of six passengers. The fishing experience is what we call captain’s choice, so you may be trolling the blue water for a more traditional deep sea charter experience, looking for species like dolphin (mahi-mahi), sailfish, tuna, etc. or, you may be trolling over the reef for barracuda, snappers, jacks, etc. If you are looking to fish for a specific species, this is not the trip for you. The captain’s main goal on these trips is action, so they are going to go where ever they think the bite will be more active.
On a split fishing charter, the fishing is done in a round robin type setting. What that means is that as the boat trolls baits waiting for a fish to strike, the anglers are waiting. Once a fish strikes, Angler One will fight the fish. Depending on what is being targeted, the other lines might be brought in until the angler is done fighting the fish or they may be left out for the potential of multiple hookups, at which time when the next fish strikes, Angler Two would have a chance to fight a fish. If it is a slow day of fishing, some anglers may not get any rod time. If it is a great day of fishing, every angler may get multiple shots at fighting a fish.
