Is Fishing an Expensive Activity?

20th Mar 2023

Most water-related activities, especially those performed in a marine environment, tend to be costly. Unfortunately, fishing is no exception. Fishing is generally categorized as an expensive activity, mainly due to the costs associated with fishing equipment and boat operation and maintenance.

In fact, one of the funniest fishing jokes often told by fishermen goes like this:

“My greatest fear is that when I die my wife will sell my fishing gear for what I told her I paid for them”, and we sure HOPE NOT!

Saltwater fishing equipment must be durable and of high quality in order to resist the harsh environmental conditions they are exposed to, such as salt water and direct sunlight. Boat operation is also costly, requiring regular refueling and anti-fouling coating application, as well as engine servicing and repair.

However, not all types of fishing are expensive. For example, if you wish to book yourself a deep-sea fishing trip in Dubai, you may choose to go for a shared fishing trip rather than a private fishing trip, the latter being significantly more expensive.

Be sure to ask for any applicable discounts when booking your fishing tour in Dubai. Most fishing charters in Dubai offer various discounts, many of which may be applicable to you!

Moreover, especially if you are new to fishing, it is recommended to join a fishing charter that provides you with the necessary fishing equipment without you having to purchase your own. This will make your fishing experience much cheaper and cost-effective.

Finally, despite the costly nature of fishing, fishing experiences are truly valuable experiences that live long in heart and memories. Fishing experiences offer many benefits and provide you with way more value than the cost you incur.

In conclusion, while fishing is not a cheap activity, it is still accessible to the majority of individuals and families, and can make a great holiday activity for families and friends!
