Guest Post: 5 Reasons Why Fishing Trips are Best in an RV
TL;DR: Fishing in an RV is unbeatable! Fish at prime times, camp near hotspots, swap tips with fellow RVers, explore different areas, and enjoy fresh catches cooked on the grill.
Fishing is a great activity to combine with RVing - it’s free (other than gear and license costs), it gets you outdoors in nature, and it takes you to some beautiful areas.
And then there’s the promise of making a nice meal with your catch if you are successful.
I’ve put together this list of five reasons why fishing trips in an RV are the best!
- Fish During The Best Periods
- Camp Right Near the Best Fishing Spots
- Swap Information With Other RVers Nearby
- You Aren't Restricted to One Area
- You Can Cook Your Catch
- You can fish during the best periods. Sometimes fishing is good during the middle of the day, but more often than not, you’ll have more luck in the morning or afternoon and even into the night. One of the most frustrating parts of fishing a hot bite is having to leave to get back to your accommodation, which may be some distance from where you are fishing. With an RV, you have no such problems - fish as early or as late as you like, and “home” is literally a stone’s throw away. And if you’ve done a dawn start, you can have a rest during the day and attack the fish again as the sun is going down. In addition, using an RV gives maximum flexibility to fall in with the schedule the fish are keeping to maximize your catch.

You can camp right near the best fishing spots. Being mobile in your RV means less time wasted “commuting” each day to the chosen fishing spots than if you were staying in a motel in a nearby town. With an RV, you can usually camp close to the fishing spot here’s a good way to find fishing spots near you and take advantage of the time savings and get more hours on the water. Plus, you can soak in the natural beauty of the fishing area!
