What anglers said about Dolphin (Mahi Mahi) Fishing in Funchal

There are a great many boats operating in Funchal, so it may be hard to choose one, I really think fishing for 4 hours in the morning with Madeira Sight Casting is the best option, you have a good chance of catching with them, far better than hour after hour of mindless and very expensive trolling and the fish you do catch can still be quite spectacular

Bring sunscreen, a jacket, snacks if you want, and wear clothes that can get dirty (fish gunk). And listen to the crew, they know better than you and are experienced.

If you are serious about fishing, this boat was well equipped, and the captain and crew were very knowledgeable and professional. I enjoyin my fishing at home and I can tell you the crew was very experienced and the boat was well equipped.

I loved that the captain said some days are good for the fishermen and some are good days for the fish. We didn't catch anything but it was a beautiful day...and good for the fish.

The boat was well appointed, spotlessly clean. Hennie and Franklin made a great team, professional, courteous and hard working. They really worked hard, and agreed plans were always flexible as they sought out fish for us. We would thoroughly recommend them as we had a great experience. We arrived as clients and left as friends so will be booking again as soon as we can.

Plan the fishing trip according to the weather and the direction of the wind. Fish in the wind shadow of the island for smaller waves.

Book with Native Crew! Theyโ€™ll do the rest. Captain is fluent in English which helped communication greatly. Be sure to get out early in the morning while still cool and fish are biting.

Don't expect to catch a big game first time! I've been 4 times all over the world and still not had my big catch but still pulled up all kinds of colourful fish!! And some big snapper! A day out on the boat is better than a day not on the boat! Just go and have fun and you may get lucky! Also check season times, summer is best for certain types of fish so can be hard before the season

You can try everything you like. The captains always will ask you what you want to fish and how. I have chosen trolling but there is also bottom fishing,... We rent an appartement near the harbour. So it was an easy walk in the morning (5 minutes)to the boat. And as you leave very early in the morning you can get breakfast at the harbour promenade. There is a nice Cafe which was open at 8 when I arrived.

Not to worry, the people from Madeira are so helpful. Just take sun cream and a coat as it can get cold at night.

Bottom-fishing out by the islands is awesome, super-rich with fish. Smaller fish but still very fun.
