Fishing Chartaers Nassau and Paradise Island

Chubasco Nassau Sportfishing Charters fleet consists of four sportfishing yachts, all fully equipped for Sportsfishing, Snorkeling, Sightseeing and Island Picnics. Chubasco III a 48' Hatteras is our largest air-conditioned sportsfishing yacht. Chubasco III provides all the comforts of home while in search of the big one or on just a laid back sightseeing, snorkeling, beaching charter. Chubasco III has a fly bridge, tuna towers, large fishing cockpit and a comfortable air-conditioned interior. It can comfortably accommodate up to 8 persons for fishing and up to 12 persons for Sightseeing, Snorkeling and Island Picnicking. Chubasco V is one of our newest additions, it is a 36' Tiara. With a Marlin Tower, large fishing cockpit and a covered seating area, Chubasco V can comfortably accommodate up to 5 persons for fishing, sightseeing and snorkeling. Chubasco VI is one our newest addition, it is an air-conditioned 38' Hatteras Express. With a Marlin Tower, large fishing cockpit, covered seating area and a comfortable air-conditioned interior, Chubasco VI can comfortably accommodate up to 6 persons for fishing, sightseeing and snorkeling. Value for money, Chubasco V and Chubasco VI are two of the best sportfishing yachts offered in Nassau and Paradise Island at the moment. Lil Chubasco a 28' Bertram Express with a Marlin tower is our newest addition. It can accommodate up to 4 persons for fishing, snorkeling and sightseeing.

Nassau and Paradise Island are ideally located for sportfishing. Our sport fishing boats are offshore fishing within 15 minutes of leaving the dock and are often hooked into fish within 30 minutes. Clients, accustomed to traveling 30 and 40 miles for offshore fishing, find it hard to believe that 1/4 mile off the Nassau and Paradise Island harbour entrance a school of flying fish skim the surface being chased by Wahoo, Tuna or a school of Mahi-Mahi (dolphin). To the east and south of Nassau and Paradise Island are the shallow Nassau reef-fishing waters where light tackle fishing for Barracuda, Mackerel, Mutton and Yellowtail Snappers is best. This type of reef-fishing is perfect for families with children and anglers who want lots of action or to combine their Bahamas fishing charter with a little snorkeling or beaching.


The experienced offshore sport fishing angler will find Chubasco Fishing Charters as good, if not better, than most saltwater charter fishing companies world wide. Our record for the Nassau and Paradise Island area is untouched and we continue to set the pace year after year. A few of our fishing accomplishments are: Marlin Fishing Nassau - most marlin annually since 1988, 4 Blue Marlin released in a 6 day period (Chubasco III in July 1999). Most Wahoo on a one-day charter, (42 caught by a party from Ditch Witch in 1998 on board Chubasco III with Capt. Mike). Largest Marlin caught off Nassau in 20 years, a 10' 10" Blue caught by Reney Selby of Conn. in 1995 fishing with Capt. John-Michael on Chubasco II. Largest Yellow Fin Tuna caught off Nassau - Ben Stevens age 17 of North Richland Hills, Texas caught a 62" 118lbs. Yellow Fin Tuna with Capt. Mike Russell on Chubasco III June 3rd., 2004. New Record for Nassau ,Bahamas Hank and Sandra Cheves land a 11' 3" Blue Marlin on May 30th. 2003. The fish was caught on Chubasco III with Capt. Mike Russell. Unfortunately, Capt. Mike and the Cheves were disappointed that after a 2 hour 40 minute fight the fish was dead when if was finally bought to the surface and had to be boated and not released. (see photo on photos of the month page.) Capt. Mike has won five of the last seven Atlantis Sportfishing Tournaments. One of those years his total point count was 5 points higher than the other top 5 boat's totals added together.


All four Chubasco sport fishing boats are equipped with the best fishing tackle available, Penn International II graphite rods, Leeward Custom Rods, Avet and Penn International reels. Although equipped for the professional fishing angler, the family and novice are just as at home with us as is the experienced angler. In fact 40% of our guests have never been deep-sea fishing before. Capt. Mike considers helping a youngster catch their first ocean fish as one of his greatest thrills. It is a Nassau fishing experience that he hopes they will never forget.


Chubasco Fishing Charters can customize your Bahamas fishing vacation trip for you depending on your fantasy. Whether deep-sea fishing off Nassau and Paradise Island for the big one or reef fishing, snorkeling, island picnicking or a combination of all four on a full day charter, Our goal is to make your fishing charter trip and experience a special event that you and your party will always remember and talk about.
