A fishing vessel is a boat or ship used to catch fish in the sea, or on a lake or river. Many different kinds of vessels are used in commercial, artisanal and recreational fishing.
According to the FAO, there are currently (2004) four million commercial fishing vessels. About 1.3 million of these are decked vessels with enclosed areas. Nearly all of these decked vessels are mechanised, and 40,000 of them are over 100 tons. At the other extreme, two-thirds (1.8 million) of the undecked boats are traditional craft of various types, powered only by sail and oars. These boats are used by artisan fishers.
It is difficult to estimate the number of recreational fishing boats. They range in size from small dinghies to large charter cruisers, and unlike commercial fishing vessels, are often not dedicated just to fishing.
Prior to the 1950s there was little standardisation of fishing boats. Designs could vary between ports and boatyards. Traditionally boats were built of wood, but wood is not often used now because it has higher maintenance costs and lower durability. Fibreglass is used increasingly in smaller fishing vessels up to 25 metres (100 tons), while steel is usually used on vessels above 25 metres.
Depending on what you’re fishing for, how you’re fishing and with how many people, you’ll want to watch this episode to help you decide what’s the best type of boat for you: a center console, bay boat or flats boat. For more information visit www.floridasportsman.com/fsbb.

Is this the ultimate fishing boat? This fishing boat is made by Garry Bull from scratch! He used moulds and split the hull of the boat in two, added a middle section to expand the boat wider and then added all of the modifications to make it a really efficient fishing boat. With up to date fish finders, radars and twin Mercury's on the back - it certainly is a Totally Awesome boat! A stable fishing platform as well as the ability to punch through a head sea is important for small fishing boats.

Have you ever fished out of a "Round Boat" like this Roundabout Watercrafts boat? Although they look a bit different than any type of boat we are used to, these round boats are pretty darn slick. To see the full blog (including all pros and cons) of the Roundabout Round Fishing Boat, click here now: http://www.saltstrong.com/articles/roundabout-round-boat-review/ On the way back to Tampa from Boca Grande last week, Luke and I decided to stop in Ruskin (the Roundabout Watercrafts home office) to do a test run after we have heard numerous anglers talking about this round fishing boat. After spending a solid hour driving around, making some casts, and testing it out every way we could, we left pretty impressed. Not going to replace our boats by any means, but it certainly could play a ro...
