SALT WATER GAME FISHING!

Spinning

Saltwater fish have always been a bountiful legacy in the waters surrounding our lands. Blue water game fishing received world wide acclaim after Zane Grey's early adventures and has grown in popularity ever since.

Both light and heavy tackle fishing are available world wide. Pelagic fish migrate in the warm ocean currents. Great techniques have evolved to make fly fishing fun and productive. Having the best equipment available to catch these beasts will make your deep sea fishing experience fun and rewarding.
Rods should be made of Graphite for their strength, and durability. Reels should be of first rate quality and capable of holding 200-300 yards of mono line. Quality reel makers include Finnor, Penn & Shimano. A wide variety of Lures should be carried.

Billfish are attracted to schools of baitfish. They will travel in groups or alone, and can travel great distances. Most trophy-oriented anglers will travel far to find the largest fish. Fishing International encourages a Catch-and-Release policy of non-edible species as well as limiting your catch, not catching your limit. These conservative practices ensure a future of our sport fishery.
The best season for these fish can be found in the chart below:

Fishing International provides a detailed tackle list for your package, along with other information known to be useful for your trip. You want the Tight Lines and Screaming Reels experience so you need correct basic tackle and supporting accessories for the type of fishing you will do. You can usually take most any of your favorite gear with you, but for some grounds you will want to use specialized tools proven by the local experts, our guides, captains and crews.
In some cases, this is mandatory. For example, some fresh water fisheries are required to supply everything that hits the water. In other areas, flats fishing, or deep sea fly fishing, you may wish to use proven gear provided by or rented from the charter.
