What kind of boat and what kind of accommodation? Also what kind of fish do you catch there?

Bamboo, The boat is a speedboat with a 200 hp Yamaha and he gets some big fish. The accomadation is air/ hot shower/ cable and is comparable to PP villa at the crossroads near beach. The lake has some big catfish, carp, Talapia and some veggy pirhanna. I went fishing there for the first time a week ago. I even managed to catch 4 fish. They will even cook it up for you and bring it to your fishing spot. I,ll certainly be going back, makes for a nice peaceful day

Thats the one .I have been fishing with mark and the boys on many occasions in the last 12 years .Always a good day out . I would like do get down a couple of times a month but work wont allow it .Dont even get to sneak up to Terrys place very often these days ..

How many persons can comfortably fish at any given time? How many can the boat accomodate comfortably? Sorry, if I ask so many questions but these are important matters as I work in tourism industry. Where is the boat docked in HH/Chumphon? Any webpages? You can send the web page address to my by pm as well.

BG, the boat I would say take 4 comforably 6 at a push. Its licensed for 14 passengers but with rods and takle etc it would be too much with any more. Its moored in Chumphon and the fishing sites are around25-35 minutes sail. No webpage as yet but hes workingon some flyers so will get some to you when they arrive. Cheers Duncan

you can hire a fishing boat next to dolphin bay for 1,000 baht a day, always guarented a big bucket of fish and you also get to see the beautiful islands around samroiyed.

I always use locals for fishing trips more fun than getting ripped off by the farang tour boats. and guarented a catch.

Is it one of these wooden boats? How many people can go in each boat? Is fishing equipment for hire? Do you take the boat alone or with a Thai?

[nightstalker]

the boats are wooden squid boats with a captain,4 people is enough, need to take your own rods.

kao takiab you can get boat with crew, equipment, cook fish on board 4,000 baht just ask around the crab shops.

Lifejackets? (or silly question)?
