Ebro Delta fishing is among the best sportfishing on offer in Europe. As the Iberian Peninsula’s second-longest river flows to the Mediterranean, plenty of nutrients, food, and exciting fish gather, giving you an unprecedented opportunity to target a range of exciting fish. From upstream to the open sea, there’s no end to what you can catch.
What can I catch in the Ebro Delta?
Depending on where you go, there’s always something biting in the Ebro Delta. Inland and upstream, some freshwater favorites such as Zander and Crappie rub shoulders with some of Europe’s biggest Catfish. Go after these beauties from land or on a charter, and you’ll be in for a freshwater fishing frenzy.
Nearer the mouth of the river, where the delta forms, plenty of nearshore beauties like to take advantage of the productive feeding grounds. Delicious fish, such as Seabass and Seabream give you the chance to fill the boat, while Bluefish and Leerfish will keep you on your toes.
Finally, an Ebro Delta fishing experience wouldn’t be complete without a trip to the Mediterranean. Test your big game fishing skills as you try to land some of the ocean’s most prized, tasty creatures, such as Bluefin Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Dentex, and many more.
When to Go
With such a range of fish on offer, it’s also important to make sure you go at the right time to catch your target species. While fishing is possible throughout the year, some creatures go into hiding while others thrive.
Overall, the best season to come fishing in the Ebro Delta is summer. From May through September, the big game creatures gather offshore, while there’s plenty of action inshore and up the river as the fish reach their prime. If you are looking to come out of season, then Catfish, Bluefish, and Seabass can be found, but you’ll be made to work that little bit harder for your catch.
How to Prepare
Whether you take an on-foot guide up the river, or head on a charter boat to sea, everything you need for a productive day out will be waiting on board. Your professional guide will even cover your fishing licenses, so there’s not much you need to worry about. All we recommend you do is bring some drinks and snacks with you and settle in for a thrilling day of fishing!
Ebro Delta fishing offers a wealth of fishing opportunities like no other, so why not make it your next fishing destination – whenever you like?
