Chubasco Fishing Charters

Pelagic game fish, such as Blue Marlin, Wahoo, Yellow Fin Tuna, Mahi-Mahi (Dolphin Fish) and Skipjack Tuna tend to prefer deep blue water, hence the term Blue Water Fishing. The rule of thumb is the deeper the water the bigger the fish. Yet monster fish have been caught just off Nassau Harbour entrance, so it is just a rule of thumb. You never know when or where a big fish will strike. The Chubasco Charters team are prepared to hook you up and boat your big fish except for Billfish which will be released at all times if still alive.
