Hello.
1) You can add new booking only from admin side at Booking > Add booking page. Please note, you can remove almost all fields from the booking form, only email field is required. You can configure these fields at the Booking > Settings > Form page.
Watch it in this video guide https://wpbookingcalendar.com/help/add-new-booking-admin-video-tutorial/
2) To the front-end side of your website, you can insert only the availability calendar without the booking form. Please read more how easily insert booking form or availability calendar into a pages https://wpbookingcalendar.com/help/inserting-booking-form/ or how manually configure Booking Calendar shortcodes in content of your pages: https://wpbookingcalendar.com/help/booking-calendar-shortcodes/

Thank you. Do you have to have the premium version to show parts of days booked? For instance, this fishing charter service books trips for 6 a.m. – 10 a.m. and then can have another from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.

You can configure the timeslots selections on the Booking > Settings > Form page. Please use the “shortcode generator” on the right side of that page for the correct generation of the shortcode.
You can use one”timerange” (timeslots) or “start time” and”end time” selections or”starttime” and “duration”of time selections shortcodes or even start time and end time entering shortcodes.
