Hi all, I'm planning on bringng a travel rod with me. I know that I will not be fishing from any of the popular beaches, but is there a place to fish from land. I also have booked a fishing charter as well. Thanks, Matt
Oh yeah...I'll be staying on St. John end of FEB.
You might try contacting some of the fishig supply places for hints and tips, such as Neptune on STT. Try the Yellow Pages at www.viphonebook.com. I know they have changed the layout on-line, let us know if you found it easy to use or not, OK?
Hello Matt,
FYI: In National Park waters; fishing is allowed outside of swim areas, but not in Trunk Bay and Jumbie Bay on St. John. It is illegal to use or possess spear fishing equipment anywhere within National Park boundaries. Fishing is prohibited at the following locations/times: A. Between 8am and 5pm at NPS Red Hook Dock and NPS Cruz Bay Finger Pier and bulkhead. B. Within all designated boat exclusion areas.
I've seen folks fishing from the rocks at different beaches on St. John, so you can try that, just follow the NP rules posted above. Walk along the rocks away from the shore a bit.
Enjoy.
