I was in a similar predicament recently and was recommended to try blackout sport fishing.

I didn't get to go out in the end due to weather, but the guy seemed like a good operator and sounded like he knew his stuff.

Definitely worth a go, and if you charter the whole boat (it takes up to 4 guests) then he will take you for whatever type of fishing you want, GT popping, jigging, livebaiting etc.

I had it booked as a sole charter for jigging, but yeah didn't get out. Damned wind.

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.
