Make unforgettable memories in Tangalle with Reel Crazy Tangalle Fishing! Captain Jude has spent countless hours on these waters, and he’s ready to share his expertise with you on an exciting fishing adventure.

Tangalle’s waters are known for Giant Trevally, Great Barracuda, Skipjack Tuna, Dorado, Dogtooth Tuna, Sailfish, Yellowfin Tuna, Rusty Jobfish, Green Jobfish, and more. With a little luck, your reel will be buzzing in no time!

On your Reel Crazy trip, expect to try trolling, popping, vertical jigging, and bottom fishing using either rod-and-reel or hand-line tackle. If you're bringing kids, rest assured Captain Jude enjoys teaching young anglers; just check with him to ensure life vests are available in the right size.

Captain Jude’s 20-foot sport fishing boat can comfortably accommodate up to 3-4 passengers, with any additional fees negotiable directly with him. Rods and reels are available but must be discussed with the captain beforehand, as he can rent them at a good price. Guests are also welcome to bring their own gear, including lures. For popping, special tackle is recommended; Captain Jude can help you prepare and organize all necessary gear for the trip.

A First Mate will assist you to ensure a smooth trip. There’s no need to worry about a fishing license, so you can focus solely on the thrill of the adventure.

Bring along sunglasses, a hat, and sunblock, and enjoy light snacks and drinks provided on board (alcohol is not allowed). Now’s the time to experience the best of Tangalle fishing with Reel Crazy Tangalle Fishing – where every trip is an adventure waiting to happen!

Great experience
5 Hour Trip – Live Bait Fishing on November 19, 20252 adults
Had a great fishing experience with Reel Crazy - Tangalle Sport Fishing Tours! We went for a 5-hour morning fishing trip with the guys. Everything was well organized! The team is very experienced and knowledgeable, very familiar with the location and its best fishing spots. We were provided various kinds of equipment, as we did not have our own with us, and it was good quality. I would definitely recommend this unique experience - fishing in the Indian Ocean while your stay in Sri-Lanka.

Amazing day wide Jude on the sea
5 Hour Trip – Popping & Jigging on January 10, 20252 adults
Really appreciated the trip, Jude's English is really good, knows the different species, experience fisherman. He and crew "Vinnare"is taking good care of you to make the best possible day. Drinks and snacks onboard and delivered what he promised, even more since I got the fish that I was looking for. 5h fishing was good, get back before the sun gets to hot! If you are interesting, you should got!
