I am getting conflicting information. I have booked a full crew catamaran for BVI. The brochure says the boat has a BVI commercial fishing license. 1. Does that mean the captain is allowed to catch both fish and lobster for us to eat? 2. Will my family need to get a fishing license if we wish to fish on this boat?
