so impressive. this team has it down to a super-smooth operation. we were always over good structure and had multiple baits in the water at all times. Even on a hot flat day we drew 15 strikes and landed 14. At one point we had four tuna on at once and somehow ian got us through it without our tying all four rods together.
You never know whats gonna be out there on a given day, but if anything is out there, these guys will find it. They’re the real thing, old bermuda fishing. book them when you can.

Our group of 4 had a wonderful time on the water with Captain Alan and Ian aboard Challenger. Their experience and expert knowledge of Bermuda’s surrounding waters put us onto fish right away. We ended up boating 5 Wahoo, a Yellowfin Tuna and a Baracuda. We were graciously provided with a generous portion of the catch that we were able to enjoy with friends later that evening. We hope to get out on Challenger again during our next trip to Bermuda. Highly recommended.
Truly an amazing father son duo with over 100 years of experience fishing these waters and working together for 35 years! Captain Alan was truly amazing and the boat is very well equipped and all equipment is like new. The first mate (Alan’s son) takes so much pride in his work and is always managing the lines. My 7 year old nephew was a little nervous but he knew exactly what to do to help him land his first tuna. I would highly recommend them and we will be back for future trips!
Dan, thank you for choosing to fish with us on the Challenger; it was a pleasure to have you on all on board. Your review is very much appreciated. Thank you. Looking forward to fishing with you again sometime. Best regards, Alan & Ian
Capt Alan Card has forgotten more about fishing than i’ll ever know. What a great guy! He knows the water, the bottom and the way fish think. First mate Ian is the Captain’s som they’ve been a team for 31 years and with them was Tyler. Captain’s grandson. Great tradition!
Couldn’t have been more helpful and they work! As Ian said, they get paid to catch fish.
No one likes to end the day withour a fish, but there are a lot if ways you can get there, and this crew made us comfortable, taught us a lot about marlin fishing in Bermuda, even taught me a terrific knot!
Would definitely Challenger Sportfishing Ted Hynes

Thanks so much Ted, very much appreciated.
My wife, a freind and I had an excellent day fishing with Challenger Fishing in Bermuda. Captain Alan and Ian were knowledgeable, professional, and worked hard throughout the trip to put us on fish. We landed a 60-pound yellowfin tuna and had plenty of action along the way.
What made the trip especially enjoyable was how much we learned about Bermuda’s local fishery, fishing techniques, and the unique marine environment around the island. Alan and Ian were happy to share their expertise and made the experience both productive and educational.
I highly recommend Challenger Fishing to anyone visiting Bermuda who wants a first-class offshore fishing experience.
