Fishing Trips
Trolling
Trolling is undertaken by pulling lines with artificial bait behind the boat at different distances. The Exploramar begins trolling as soon as we are out of the harbour. Different species of fish can be caught when trolling in shallow waters such as Atlantic bonito, barracuda, bonito, dorado, tuna, wahoo etc which will all give you a good fight. Once the Exploramar is in deeper waters the fun and the real action begins, as the opportunity may arise to catch one of the big ones such as blue marlin, white marlin and various species of tuna etc.
Bottom Fishing
This type of fishing entails the Exploramar sailing to a reef whereby we will drop anchor and begin to fish. The reef is only 20 minutes away from the harbour. Many species of fish can be caught when bottom fishing including amberjack, barracuda, bream, dorado, monkfish, moray eels, rays, red snapper, sharks, tuna, wahoo, etc.
Shark Fishing
The boat is also available to fish for sharks. Requests for shark fishing are high during certain parts of the year and there are numerous species of shark here in Gran Canaria.
Ray Fishing
There are also many requests for Ray fishing, which we find extremeley popular. There are many species of rays here in Gran Canaria which put up a very good fight.
