I know this Type of question has been asked many times, but I'm looking for an expert on the topic to let me know for sure. I am getting conflicting information.
I have booked a full crew catamaran for BVI. The brochure says the boat has a BVI commercial fishing license.
1. Does that mean the captain is allowed to catch both fish and lobster for us to eat?
2. Will my family need to get a fishing license if we wish to fish on this boat?

1. I don't know
2. Individuals also need a license

Unless the captain carries a BVI passport he can't take lobster.
Anyone who touches a fishing line requires a license.

If the crew is legal to take you to the USVI you can fish there with no license and take two lobsters per day per person.
