    Deep sea fishing question....

    Will be going on a private charter this weekend with five other guys. This will be my first time on a private charter instead of a party boat. My trip is being paid for by my company but I plan on tipping from my own pocket. What is standard tip?

      Your option on the tip, depends on service

        Dumb question but 30% of what? My spot cost $300 so is it 30% of that?

          Yes 30 percent of the total cost also depends on service to. Also money is no object than tip a 100 to 200

              10-15% is what we usually got when I captained in the keys......of the total. Not per person

                10-25% of total cost of trip, divided by number of people, depending on service and whether or not they cleaned and bagged your fish for you.

                  It would have to be one heck of a trip for 30%. I would think 20 would make any captain think he has done a good job.

                        15 to 20% is standard. Well at least that's what several of the websites said when I was looking to book a trip. Trip cost $170.00, I tipped $40.00.
