What makes it special

Sea fishing is very different from river fishing

First of all, there’s the fish itself — the sea is home to different species, often of a completely different size: my tackle sizes often start where those of my angler friends who fish inland waters end. Besides rod fishing, there are various kinds of sea hunting: with a speargun or a pole spear (Hawaiian sling).

Where we fish

We organise and run fishing trips in several sailing areas

Indian Ocean

The Seychelles

Tuna, marlin, sailfish, jobfish, wahoo (kingfish), lemon sharks, rays. Trolling, jigging, casting and bottom fishing. Spearfishing is prohibited. You may encounter giant mantas, whale sharks and Napoleon wrasse.

Caribbean Sea

Cuba

Tuna, marlin, mahi-mahi, barracuda, grouper, jacks, tarpon, king mackerel. Spearfishing is permitted here, and it’s fairly easy to find lobster. Reef sharks, nurse sharks and whale sharks can be seen in the sea.

Barents Sea

Norway

Rich in many species of northern fish — cod, saithe, halibut, flounder, mackerel. At anchor you can drop a crab trap. In March, Norway hosts competitions for catching skrei (Atlantic cod). Method: jigging with pilkers from 150 to 500 grams at depths of 30 to 300 metres.

You can also catch fish in Turkey, Greece, Thailand and Italy by trolling or casting. Usually it’s tuna, but other fish bite too. Sometimes you can catch squid or cuttlefish at anchor.
