LA GUAIRA BANKS
"Boat crew was outstanding! overall - great trip! 4 white marlin, 3 blue marlin to 400 lbs., 11 marlin strikes." - William C. Scott, TX.
S
ummer months are the peak season for Venezuela swordfish. The combination of trade winds and currents cause the upwelling of nutrients from January through June and attract huge schools of baitfish that, in turn, are prey for great numbers of billfish, particularly Blue Marlin which peak from February through May. White Marlin and Sailfish abound during May to November, peaking from August through October.
Locals claim that the famous La Guaira Bank in Venezuela is the GRAND SLAM capital of the world, and we won't argue unnecessarily about that because of the spectacular results we have seen. Since all species of billfish are caught throughout the year, it is this unique feature that earns La Guaira the title of Billfish Capital of The World.
The bountiful offshore waters of Venezuela continue to provide visiting thrill seekers with amazing bluewater excitement. Countless blue marlin, white marlin, sailfish, and swordfish that congregate in the area welcome anglers that come to Venezuela looking for the ultimate challenge.
