Leo Fishing – Traditional Fishing
Leo Fishing – Traditional Fishing
My name is Leonardo, better known as Leo, I come from a family of several generations of sea wolves, born and raised in Rabo de Peixe.
I have maritime knowledge that life has brought me, through my ancestors and life lived at sea, with a real traditional fishing vessel, made by my own father called 'Leonardo da Gilda'.
My main fishing style is squid fishing, using sustainable and environmentally friendly methods, helping above all to preserve our precious asset, the sea.
In addition to fishing for squid, you can also fish with me for other listed species, with notice at the time of booking.
On our trip, you will also be able to discover the famous cave where the story that ended up becoming the Netflix series 'Turn of the Tide' was born.
If you're lucky, you'll even be able to see dolphins that regularly accompany us on our trips to the sea.
We always recommend bringing sunglasses, as well as sunscreen, but if you forget yours, we have one for you, as well as snacks and water.
Alcoholic drinks are permitted in small quantities.
Hug,
Leonardo

Pêche traditionnelle sur petit bateau. Leonardo aime partager son métier passion, il est né ici et pêche depuis toujours. Enfant il ne voulait jamais aller à l’école et voulait toujours partir en mer. Aujourd’hui, il pêche au large de Ribo Do Peixe. Quand il emmène des gens avec lui, la journée leur est consacrée, il vous emmène sur différents sites et vous montre la technique adaptée à chaque site et au poisson espère ici. Aujourd’hui, nous avons pêché à la traîne et à la canne. Des pages, des mérous, et des balistes. Vous garderez le poisson pour vous, nous repas sont assurés pour 3 jours!! C’est une pêche durable, vous prenez ce que vous consommez, les plus petites prises sont rejetées.
Arrived at location at 8 am in overcast conditions. Captain advised that rain was in the forecast aand if we wanted to proceed. we decided to go ahead. Boarded boat and stored our gear and set out. About 30 minutes in the rain started light but waves were ok . Caught a couple small fish that we released. Leonardo got us onto some fish and assisted with baiting and we soon caught a couple of keepers. We continued in this manner for a couple hours getting about six keepers. The rain did persist, not cold but we did get soaked. Caught a 2.5 ft baracuda trolling back to the dock. Leo cleaned the fish for us and sent us on our way. Would defintely do it again
Unfortunately, the fish weren't very active that day, but we still managed to catch a few for the kitchen and The Captain tried His best to give me the best Experience, thanks for the great experience! :)
I had an incredible time on this fishing trip! The captain was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone felt comfortable, even if you were a beginner. The boat was clean and well-equipped, and we got to see some beautiful views of the coastline while fishing.I highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting the area who wants a mix of adventure, relaxation, and great memories. I'll definitely book again next time!
Had a great time & great conversation. Highly recommend this captain and enjoyed the trip!
