Fishing in the Caribbean can prove to be one of the best fishing experiences of your life. The Caribbean Sea is home to a wide variety of fish and it is quite often breaking world records for the size of fish too.
The deep sea is home to migratory fish such as yellow and black fin tuna, marlin, dolphin fish and you may be lucky enough to hook onto a large sail fish.
One thing that is a great advantage of going fishing on the island of St.Croix is you do not have to travel several miles off shore to catch some of the bigger fish, most charter tend to drop their first line at around 2 miles off shore and it is very often that they hook large fish here.
If you do not like the idea of going out fishing on a sports boat, why not try your luck from the shores. Many people head to the pier and harbour areas to cast their lines at high tide. Here you are likely to hook bone fish, large snapper and people have also been known to land tarpon from the shores.
Whether you decide to go offshore, or stay on land to chance your luck, you are guaranteed to have a fantastic days fishing, and it is extremely rare that a single fisherman does not land anything during the day.
