We're pretty frustrated with the fishing situation in the BVI, even before the whole boat registration fiasco. Its just not very good. I called about getting our boat registered 18 months ago and was told that was just for commercial or recreational boats owned by residents. I would need to get a license for every visit. Well, half true.

We've had great success fishing between St. Thomas and Culebra and the south drop between St. Thomas and St. John has been good.

In January we ran lines one day from Anegada to Jost and tried for Kingfish Banks, but the wind and swell was a bit much. In March we didn't bother.

I love fishing and Sweet Christine loves catching. We'll have our lines out when we sail south in June.
