I'm currently trying to set up a charter among some mates but as I'm sure we all find it's difficult getting committment/common available dates etc etc. So, being selfish, I'm also now wondering if there are often spare places on pre-arranged boat trips for singles or maybe 2 people? I did notice that one skipper had an 'individual' dates on his calender but dates didn't suit me.
So do any of you have any success in dropping in on trips to fill spaces ?
I'm looking at North Wales by the way (Stockport based)
Thanks, Grahame.

Most parties that book a boat have the odd drop out on the day for whatever reason. If you contact the skippers most have a few regulars they can call on to fill spare spaces but it will be at short notice usually after 9pm on the evening before the trip. You will need to go regularly for the skipper to call you, if you always turn them down they will soon get sick of ringing you. May be best to pick a good skipper and get on his list rather than trying a few.

If your going to catch nothing, make it a big nothing. Use big baits

Don't know if this will interest you but I am on a trip this Sat 8th July. Its a 10 hour trip, sailing at 0900hrs, at a cost of £23 plus bait, I believe at the time writing this we have 3 spare places. Look on the Wales site, you will see the details. This trip is being run by Gareth for the Hollywel fishing club.
If you cant find the details pm me your mobile number, and I will be in touch.

Hi Seajunky - only just got to pick up your note sorry. Wouldn't have been able to come along due to car in for a service all day as it happens. Much appreciate the offer though - my thoughts of getting a trip up from here is proving to be hard work (getting dates/comittment). Cheers. Grahame.
