2 Charlotte Street
Nassau, Bahamas

Book your next trip with E.l. Watersports and find out what keeps anglers coming back to Nassau for more. Your guide for the day is Captain Ednie, so you'll benefit from years of local experience.

Species like Great Barracuda, Crayfish, Black Grouper, Red Grouper, Almaco Jack, Mahi Mahi, King Mackerel (Kingfish), Mutton Snapper, and more are in the cards, depending on when you go. For these species, you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light tackle.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. Snacks are never a bad idea so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

Capt. Ednie operates a 35' Ocean Master center console with a capacity for 10 passengers. It has all the essentials. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. Rods, reels, and tackle are provided.

A First Mate will be there to make sure everything is running smoothly. A 10–20% tip is customary to show your appreciation for their hard work.

Before coming aboard, you will be required to buy a local fishing license for everyone in your group. This information is usually available online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

A few items to bring include sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. There will be some drinks on offer, but let the captain know if you wish to bring your own. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just be sure to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. Please note we do accept payment through Zelle and Venmo.

Now's the time to experience fishing in Nassau for yourself, with E.l. Watersports!

tons of fun, fish!!
Half Day Trip (AM) on December 12, 20257 adults
Captain was very knowledgeable about where to fish, helped our novice fisherman and was very kind to all of us. The firstmate was quiet but helpful. We changed spots to find beat fishing and the Captain took us to a spot to get fish cleaned and a great restaurant, Green Parrot, to cook our fish! Great fun!! Would do again!!

Great trip catching fish!
Half Day Trip (PM) on February 13, 20252 adults
First off if you want to catch fish, captain Ednie is the man to get it done. When booking the trip, we were unsure what the conditions would be like. Captain ednie contacted us the day before and offered to pick us up from resort. After a short boat ride the wind was a little strong in deeper water, we fished a few minutes there and decided to move closer In to the island. That's when the fun happened. Every cast out we would both hook up and bring fish in one after another. Didn't take long to fill up a bucket full of fish. I would highly recommend taking a trip out. You will have lots of fun and captain ednie is there to keep you safe and make sure you have fun!!

Bad Weather Great Bite
Half Day Trip (AM) on October 7, 20254 adults
With tropical storms in the area we knew the seas would be rough and they were, but dispite the rolling seas the bite was on within seconds of dropping bait into the channel. We caught Yellow Jack, Snapper, a parrot fish and a few other species, even a small shark. They were really accommodating since we came in on a cruise and couldnt start at the normal time their ad said. highly recommended

Amazing Trip Spent Fishing & Snorkeling
Half Day Trip (AM) on November 15, 20254 adults
We had an amazing time fishing and snorkeling on our trip this weekend thanks to EI Charters! Caught some delicious grouper, triggerfish, snapper and more. The captain and mate were kind enough to clean the fish for us afterwards, while taking us to snorkel at an island nearby. Could not reccomend them more, thank you for a great time on our first trip to the Bahamas!

We had a great time! They were great with our kids and we caught a ton of fish! They even took us to where we could have them cleaned and then dropped us off at a restaurant that would cook our fresh catch for us since we were on a cruise and had limited time!!
