If you have the shirt or the bumper sticker that says “I’d rather be fishing!”, then you have probably taken a fishing vacation recently. I have been on many fishing vacations that just did not turn out as I had planned. Sometimes the vacation did not turn out well because of the lodging, sometimes it was the lack of fish, sometimes it was the amount of people at the location, and sometimes it turned out badly because there was a lack of facilities for my boat. For whatever reason your fishing vacation turns out badly, you are always very disappointed, because it might be a while until you can get away again. Here are some tips for choosing a location for a fishing vacation.

1. Check out the lodging available at your fishing vacation spot. Depending on the trip that you are trying to take, you might want anything from a campground by the lake, or a hotel by the ocean. Whatever type lodging you are looking for, make sure the type of lodging you require is available at the location you choose.

2. Choose a fishing location which produces many fish. No one wants to go on a fishing vacation and not catch any fish. We have all heard of great locations where the fish practically jump into the boat. However, many of these stories are just that, stories. The best tip is to do a little research on your fishing location to see when the fishing is the best. Some locations have good fishing during the spring and some are better during the fall. Make sure that your trip coincides with the best time for catching fish.

3. Choose a location that does not allow water sports. Trust me, this one is a must. You do not want to be battling jet skis, power boats, and wake boarders on your fishing vacation. It is already hard enough to catch some fish when everything is quiet, but it is almost impossible if the water is constantly being stirred up, and the location is very noisy.

4. Make sure your vacation spot has proper boat facilities. If you plan on taking your boat on your fishing vacation, make sure that the location has a marina to leave your boat when you are not fishing. Also make sure that your fishing location has a boat launch, so that you can actually get your boat off the trailer and into the water.
