    Highly recommend!

    Captain Marko is good and friendly man. It was perfect experience for Me and our son. Highly recommend for families with kids. Our 10 years boy was really happy with this fishing. Overall we caught more than 15, different size, fishes. It is better go fishing early morning. Water, soft drinks and light sandwiches are already on board! One more time a lot of thanks for Cpt.Marko!

    Snapper for Dinner

    We had great trip with these guys. While fishing was slower, we still landed several big snapper and caught some other fish along the way. The weather was beautiful and Pedro even gave us some recommendations on how to cook it up whole the Madieran way.

Dentex fishing is all about power, patience, and great eating. Dentex are strong, smart predators that prowl reefs and rough bottoms. They hit hard, dive for cover, and make steady runs. Many anglers target them for the tough fight and the fine fillets.

You can catch Dentex by bottom fishing, jigging, or slow trolling near structure. Live or fresh bait like squid, mackerel, or octopus works very well. Metal jigs and soft plastics also produce bites. Jigging means dropping a lure to the bottom and working it up with short lifts.

Expect steady, focused fishing rather than nonstop action. Bites can be subtle, then turn into a solid bend and heavy headshakes. This suits anglers who enjoy reading the bottom and waiting out a careful fish. Bring sun protection, a hat, and non-slip shoes. If you get seasick, consider motion sickness relief. Most crews supply tackle and bait, but ask ahead so you know what to bring.

Before your trip, check local rules for Dentex fishing. Make sure you have the right fishing license or permit. Confirm open seasons, size and bag limits, and any protected areas. Regulations change often, and the captain will follow the latest rules. When in doubt, ask your crew and follow best release practices.
