Charter boats are also changing with the times of high fuel prices, too- in some states they keep all the edible fish as part of the deal. Prices of big game marlin and tuna charters are going up to the point it is a rich man's game. Best deals to be had are the party boats, but it is mostly bottom fishing for the smaller eating fish- and the average cost for a full day trip on an offshore party boat is between sixty and eighty bucks- If there is any "good thing" about this price gouging is that it will force us off oil to less expensive alternative fuels-
