Skull Fishing runs offshore fishing trips filled with action around the atolls of the Maldives. Located on the central island, Skull Fishing can put you on game fish in no time. They cater to anglers of all levels, so if you happen to visit this little piece of paradise, a trip with Skull Fishing crew will make your stay even more memorable.

These fisheries are home to a variety of popular species. Depending on where you navigate your charter, you can hope to catch a true prize. Some 20-50 miles out, you can get Marlin, Tuna, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, using trolling and jigging techniques.

If you'd rather stay around the inshore shallows you can do popping, casting, and other muscle popping action to get Giant Trevally, Barracuda, Emperor, Grouper, or Snapper. Around the reefs, families will find a perfect match as they take a dip in azure waters and still do fishing for Emperor, Job Fish, Snapper, or Trevally.

You will be fishing from an Offshore 25 center console, built in 2017. She is powered by two 115 HP Mercury engines and will grant you both speed and stability. The vessel can accommodate up to ten anglers, although groups of six will have the optimum space for fishing and enjoyment.

The boat is rigged with navigational electronics, has leather sofas, stereo sound system, an ice box, a private toilet, and stores safety equipment, and a snorkeling toolkit. Simply put, it is fit to put you on the local fish.

When you come onboard, you will get Shimano and Penn gear, as well as lures, depending on the type of package and target species. The crew can also provide pick-up from other atolls nearby, at a different price.

Snacks and soft drinks are served on shorter trips, whereas you will also have a lunch on a full day trip. You don't need to go through the hassle with the fishing license. What you should bring is a camera to get a nice shot of your catch, a cap, sunblock, and personal belongings. Pack and come claim your catch!

The title says it all! Captin and Crew delivered over and over again all day! We slayed fish from the min we got on the boat until the last min! The day started with them picking me up right from my private dock on Velassaru Island! True professionals!!!! Not only did we catch over 10+ species of fish but these guys brought snacks, sandwich's, drinks and so much more for my son and I! If I could go again, I would sign up in 1 second!
