Mahi Sportfishing Puglia
Mahi Sportfishing Puglia
Mahi Sportfishing offers you a remarkable day on the water. Whether you want to have an aperitif on the sea or an adrenaline-pumping fishing trip: They are the ones for you!
The Captain is Fernando Rosiello, a very experienced fisherman who was trained by the best IGFA captains from all over the world. He has seen it all: Blue Marlins, giant Tunas, and even bigger Sharks. He also won first place at the Martinique Blue Marlin Sportfishing Competition in 2012! The whole crew speaks Italian, English, and Spanish.
They run trips year round but the best season is during summer. This is when Mahi Mahi and Tuna swim in from the ocean to breed, so it's the best period to target them, as they're very hungry and often swim only a few miles offshore. It's pretty common to catch up to 30 or 40 fish per day during July and August.
In terms of sportfishing, the Adriatic Sea has always been kind to the fishermen, so you're very unlikely to return home without any catch. The captain usually goes anywhere from 2–35 miles offshore. The most common techniques are trolling and jigging (slow-pitch) but he's well-versed in other techniques as well.
The captain will provide gear and he invested a lot of funds in making sure it's all top notch equipment. The boat includes a minibar, local snacks, sandwiches (included in price), and the captain will even take care of the fishing licenses. Fish cleaning is also included. Tips are not included in the price!
Mahi Sportfishing can arrange lots of different experiences! They can take you snorkeling, show you all the wonders of the Apulian coastal area while you enjoy a glass of wine, and give you the best rod-bending action! Simply make sure to book a trip long enough to fit all of these exciting activities!

Even though I loved fishing, I had never managed to dedicate a full day to tuna fishing. An experience absolutely worth repeating... I was in Puglia for a weekend and booked a fishing trip on the fly with Mahi Sportfishing Puglia. We departed from the port of Villanova with a couple of guys who were super friendly and very PROFESSIONAL! The captain... young but very experienced with a passion for fishing in his blood. I couldn't believe my eyes when, after reaching the spot the captain knew, I started to feel the rod vibrating and then pulling so hard and powerfully that I was almost scared... And yes, there was a tuna and then another and then another one... satisfaction and fun accompanied by my favorite music is what remains of a wonderful adventure. Absolutely worth doing again👍
Thank you so much for the review! We look forward to having you back on board!
Wonderful experience!! Outstanding experience with our captain Fernando! We spent a day full of fun, catching loads of fish, of various types and using different methods, in the Apulian sea. I highly recommend this fantastic experience to everyone! Those who aren't passionate about fishing will become so, I assure you
Thank you very much for the wonderful review
We were 3 clients (me, my girlfirend and my son) and we chose fast trolling for 4 hours. We caught several bonitos and false albacores and even a big mahi mahi. We had a great time! The crew on bord is very friendly and very experienced. Probably the best charter we have ever booked in our entire life! Good job, guys! See You next year!
Thank You, John! See You soon on board with us!
We booked a sunset aperitif. Spectacular! We enjoyed excellent local products and we even spotted some dolphins. Awesome!!!
Thank you so much for the review! We look forward to having you aboard again!
A truly unique experience. The entire trip was spectacular on a wonderful sea. The captain put his impeccable expertise at our disposal, making the day even more special. We fished, laughed, and joked around. It's an adventure worth repeating and I highly recommend it. Excellent
Thank you very much for the wonderful review

I started fishing at the age of 2 with my father. Then, the passion started to grow very fast and I traveled all over the world to learn from the best IGFA captains. My favorite technique is high speed trolling. It is fast and very profitable in terms of catches. A lot of adrenaline!
