Spend the day with Sicily Fishing Experience and get hooked on fishing in Trapani!

Around here the fishing is popular for John Dory, Sharpsnout Seabream, Dentex, Goliath Grouper, Amberjack, Skipjack, Bluefin Tuna, and more, depending on the season. For these species, you're likely to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Planning a family adventure? Kids are absolutely welcome! Be sure to ask if child-sized life vests are available, otherwise you should bring your own. And, you can't go wrong with snacks to maintain your energy throughout the trip!

Capt. Daniele will bring you aboard a 31' Pursuit 3070 center console with capacity for 8 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. There's a toilet on board for your convenience. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, as well as lures. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. Mates often work for tips and it's customary to offer them a 10–20% tip.

Your fishing license for the day is covered by the charter boat, just show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that some fish may have harvest limits or closed seasons. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

It's never a bad idea to bring sunglasses, sunblock (non-spray), and a hat. Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be food and some light snacks available on board.

    A lot of fish but poor decisions by the captain.

    8 Hour Trip – Tuna Drifting on July 25, 2026 • 4 adults

    To begin with, instead of departing early in the morning when the sea was calm and temperatures were lower, the captain decided to leave around midday. By then, the sea was already quite rough, significantly reducing the experience and chances of catching tuna, even though we did spot some on the radar. The captain used live bait left over from a previous trip, but after spending the entire day in the bait tank, the fish seemed to be weak and in poor condition. After drifting for a long time without any success, we agreed to change locations and try deep-sea fishing instead. However, there was only one setup available for deep dropping, so the experience felt largely unproductive. At around 5:30 p.m., we returned to the original spot, but the wind only eased around 6:00 p.m. We then fished with two rods using two live baitfish. Instead of casting live bait from the beginning, the captain did so only when we spotted another tuna on the radar, which to my mind was too late… The boat itself was well equipped and featured professional-grade equipment. Unfortunately, the overall value for money was very poor. For €1,200, I would have expected a much more proactive approach from the captain, including techniques such as chumming or a greater overall effort to maximise our chances of success. I have been on many high-quality offshore charters, including trips at a similar and higher price point, and based on this experience, I would not recommend this one.
