Singapore is an exciting fishing destination with a variety of local fish species you can target. 'Fishing with Cpt Ron' is local to the area and knows the secret spots where the bite is red-hot. Join them and learn from their experience.

The boat you'll fish from is a gorgeous Trophy walkaround with a distinctive bow. She measures 42' in length, able to hold up to 10 anglers fishing at the same time in comfort. She's powered by twin 350 HP Mercury engines, giving her a comfortable maximum cruising speed of about 16 knots. A toilet is available on board, as well as a full suite of electronics for navigation and finding fish, and a cooler to store your catch.

Captain Ron is a local to the area—he's a born and raised Singaporean. He knows these waters like the back of his hand and he'll take you to the hottest local fishing spots around. You can expect to target Red Snappers, Mangrove Snappers, Barramundi, and Bigfin Rays on this charter. Light tackle will be used with either bottom fishing, drift fishing, or jigging.

The captain provides 2 small vests on board, so parents are advised to bring their own if bringing multiple children. Rods, reels, and other equipment are all available for rent with the captain. Live bait is available for an extra fee.

    Fishy Fun in the Sun

    Boat Fishing For Beginners (PM) on December 17, 2025 • 2 adults

    We went with Captain Ron in December as a 3hour charter for 2 people. Ron was incredibly kind, patient and fun. We were beginner fisher people but he explained everything well and lead us to catch our first fish!!! We caught Groupers and Snappers and could not be more pleased. The boat was well equipped and we got to grill our catch on board. Recommend to bring beers or snacks for a perfect day. Would come back again!

    Half Day Fishing Trip

    Full Day Trip – Private on February 13, 2026 • 2 adults

    My partner and I went fishing with Captain Ron this morning and had a great experience. I did get a little seasick in the middle of the trip, but I pulled through and it was totally worth it. The boat was clean and well-maintained, and everything felt safe and professional. Captain Ron was patient and guided just the two of us throughout the trip. We caught a few groupers and other fishes too! Overall, such a fun and memorable morning out at sea.

    Beginner morning fishing (3 hours)

    Boat Fishing Beginners Weekend (AM) on November 10, 2024 • 6 adults • 2 children

    Really enjoyed the beginner fishing with Captain Ron. The trip was delayed 1 hour due to heavy rain but the rain stopped in one hour. We caught more than 10 fish and kept 8 and released the small ones. The boat was bigger and better than we expected and Captain Ron and his staff were professionals. Surely great Sunday morning with family and friends.

    A great trip

    Half Day Trip – Private (AM) on March 10, 2023 • 3 adults

    Our family had a wonderful time fishing with Captain Rom and Teddy. The boat was very nice and clean. Extra bonus they had karaoke available to help bridge the time between fishing spots. We fished off of Sentosa and the scenery of the Singapore skyline was beautiful. We caught some small grouper and a beautiful parrot fish. Captain Ron gave us a grouper that he caught that weighed almost 10 pounds and it was delicious. This trip was definitely worth the price.

    Awesome Half Day Trip with Captain Ron

    Half Day Trip – Private (AM) on May 17, 2022 • 2 adults

    Booked a half day trip with Captain Ron a week in advance, and had an absolutely awesome trip with him! Captain Ron was very punctual, friendly and knowledgeable about the fishing spots around Sentosa island. He taught us how to setup our rods and how to catch fish, and we caught a good number of fish, even a rare Coral Trout too. We are very, very happy with our experience with Captain Ron, and will definitely be back for another trip!

    Full Day Trip - Private (8am - 2pm)

    Full Day Trip – Private on December 15, 2020 • 5 adults

    Our family really enjoyed our trip today! Captain Ron was very helpful in explaining to us the techniques for fishing the groupers. We rented 4 rods from him and he was very hands-on in guiding us. From the tackle set-up to pulling up our catch, he was there to help! My little niece was feeling tired as she woke up early and Cpt Ron kindly provided a space for her to lie down and rest. Soon, she was energetic enough to reel in her catch! Captain Ron really knows the good spots to catch the groupers and he led us to different spots from time to time. We were delighted to hear that we did well as beginners. We brought home 9 groupers and let a little one swim back to the sea. A perfect ten to end our day! It was a great experience...we strongly recommend this trip and will likely return for the next time! (:

    Fantastic beginners course!

    Boat Fishing For Beginners (PM) on November 6, 2021 • 2 adults

    Absolutely brilliant. Ron was incredible. We couldn’t have wished for a better teacher or charter. We would highly recommend. Ron went above and beyond what was expected of him and my wife and I had a truly memorable experience. We were complete beginners before this trip but learnt so much without being overwhelming. Oh and the fish tasted wonderful too!!

    Fishing with Captain

    Half Day Trip – Private (PM) on November 21, 2020 • 5 adults

    I booked a half day fishing trip with Captain Ron for my boyfriend and a group of his friends as a surprise for his birthday. Captain Ron made the whole process so easy and was really communicative. The boys were lost for words with how good the experience was - they absolutely loved Captain Ron and managed to catch a few good fish along the way. A storm rolled in, causing the boat to have to return a little early - but the boys were delighted to get to cook their fish on a BBQ and eat it. Thank you Captain Ron!

    Half day private PM trip

    Half Day Trip – Private (PM) on February 11, 2020 • 2 adults

    Great trip!! Being and avid angler back home in the US I wanted to cross the Grouper off on my bucket list while visiting Singapore, and that I did with the help of Captain Ron. He was very knowledgeable on the fishing grounds and techniques used to achieve this and had a great time talking to him about my fishing adventures back home. The scenery of the Lion City while fishing among the awaiting ships was something I will never forget. Highly recommend to both beginners and pros ..

Captain Ron is a Singaporean, through and through. He's lived in the area his whole life and knows these waters like the back of his hand. He knows all the local hidden coves, fisheries, and bays. His biggest joy is taking his customers out fishing, and then seeing their faces as they catch the fish of their lifetime.

    Unfortunately it was a rainy day but Cpt tried his best to ensure that we witness the only bit of sunset available on that day. Chicken satay was nice:) would recommend the trip overall to non-serious fishers, and do check the weather beforehand.
