Thanks for the tip but my mate wants a private charter rather than an pre arranged trip.

Anyone else?

You can call Sunny at 08 010 28509. It might be a little expensive and it's actually a big speedboat. But since his family does fishing as a living and he grew up in Bang Saray, he knows the sea around Pattaya by hard.

His boat can take a maximum of 6 persons for a day of leisure fishing. But if you're into serious deep sea fishing, he'l take you out on a bigger boat for I think 2 days 1 night. All food included, there'll be guys preparing all the bait for you. You need not bring fishing rods if you don't have any. And upon fishing he'll bring you to an island and his guys will get some of the smaller fishes barbequed on the island for you.

We've tried his service before. Really cool. Love it.Nice guy. And just a day's trip, we've caught 3 swordfish (1 of 1m long), a garoupa, and a few other fishes. A little ex but it's really worth it. And I'm going again this sunday!
