I am looking to make contact with local fishermen out on the island.
Obviously to live there and pay for charters all the time is not worth it but I would appreciate if I can make some contacts with poeple that are regulary going fishing and wouldnt mind making a new friend and letting me tagg along.

Might be a good idea to learn french or creole. Am not sure all fishermen would be able to understand english. Then again I might be wrong.

Do you have your fishing equipment? I might know someone who can help on that. I'll ask him and let you know!
