What's expected of a boat passenger?
ASHQUACK:
I don't want to sound like an a-hole but, I expect nothing except for whomever is fishing with me to understand that I'm the captain of the boat, period. Gas money can fall under compensation for fishing so be very careful because you get into guide/charter issues with licensing and such.
fishngamereaper:
Splitting fuel is the norm...it's not compensation because it's a cost of goods not service's.
If you break gear pay for it.
Offer to help clean but on my boat I'll respectfully decline...I do it my way.
Bring your own food/ drinks. Offer to share.
Don't grab your catch and bug out at the end of the day. Learn to clean fish and help with processing...that's my biggest pet peeve.
metlhead:
My boat is snacks/drinks only. And you need to do all the deckhanding, and catch fish.
metlhead:
Forgot to mention, forget my snacks and you go hungry🤨

On the gulf coast it was usually splitting gas, ice, food, beer, etc. Coordinate any gear you need to bring. Pretty normal stuff. When you get back to the dock the expectaction is that you help clean the boat or the fish.
Mu uncle used to weed out his daughter's boyfriends with the last one.
Since I'm just running a 14' aluminum with a 15 horse up here in fresh water, I just expect people to not flake and brind whatever food / snacks they need. And to hold the rope at the ramp :chuckle:
