Planning your next fishing adventure just got a little easier with a new Fishing Guide and Charter Locator at BoatUSAngler.com. The Web site is the online home of BoatU.S. Angler, a membership program that offers services, fishing tips and safety information just for trailer boat anglers.
"Whether you're thinking about staying in state or traveling across the country, we can help you make the right choice when seeking professional guide services and charter operators," said BoatU.S. Angler Director Mike Pellerin.
Anglers can easily search by region, state or even by species. Included with each fishing guide or charter company listing is full contact information and links to their Web sites. Many listings also have detailed descriptions on their business and the types of species available, boats and equipment being used, professional credentials, or other relevant local information.
Included at the Web site's "How-To" section is the feature, Hiring a Fishing Guide or Charter,
written by BoatU.S. Angler Fishing Pro and Guide Steve Chaconas.
The Fishing Guide & Charter Locator also includes an informal rating system that allows customers to share their experience online. "It's always good to know what your peers have to say about their fishing experience," added Pellerin.
The Guide & Charter Locator is available free to any angler at http://www.BoatUSAngler.com Fishing guides that offer BoatU.S. member discounts are also included.
Guides or charter operators wishing to be included on the Locator may send their information to info@BoatUS.com. Anglers who have fished with a guide but don't see their name may also add it by clicking on the "Suggest a Guide or Charter" button at the bottom of every listings page.
BoatU.S. Angler is a new program from the nation's largest association of recreational boaters whose mission is to protect the interests of boat-owning freshwater anglers, increase boating safety, provide consumer assistance and ensure fishing remains worry-free.
