Capt. Mohamed runs trips out of Hurghada aboard a 36' Marakeb center console. These waters are known for Tuna and Mahi Mahi and he will show you how to catch them, whether you're bottom fishing or trolling. With great knowledge of the area, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!

    3 days fishing with Double Strike

    Full Day Trip – Sportfishing • 1 adult

    We didn't let the very bad weather bother us, and for 3 days we battled against it to find some fish. The crew of Double Strike went far beyond my expectations and even though we were not able to go offshore to the best spots we were still able to catch plenty of fish. Among the smaller fish, I landed my PB amberjack and we lost another. I had great time out there with Double Strike. Highly recommended!

    Reported catch:
    Amberjack

    My fishing trip was fantastic! It was an superb organization and a very friendly and relaxed atmosphere on board. The fishing itself was a real highlight! We caught some really big fishes like GT, Amberjack or King mackerel! Next time I‘m in Hurghada, I will definitely book another trip with Double Strike Charter!

    Yellowfin Tuna and jigging

    Full Day Trip – Yellowfin Tuna Hunt • 3 adults

    Hi guys, we are an group of Dutch people that booked a fishing trip at dubbelstrike. First off all we had really nice day on board with the enthusiastic captain magdy and his crew. We came on board and had a really good welcome. the boat was clean you have alot of space, there s an toilet on board and they had bean bags on board where you can sit on when they boat to anthoter spot or when you tired and need a chill!! We started the day at the yellowfintuna spot in the morning al the yellowfin went crazy on the chum we saw them flying by under the boat it was beautiful. We got some hook ups But weren 't abel to catch one thats called badd luck. But we were lucky enough and caught a skipjack tuna and 2 bonito's. So that was fun, after that we wanted to go jigging for other species, and gues what we where going to another spot and start jigging we got some good hook ups and caught couple of amberjacks and dogthooth tuna what an fighters are these fish!! We had n awesome day🔥

    Perfect 1 day and 1/2 day

    Full Day Trip – Sportfishing

    Really good experience with captain Magdy and his crew! Communication was good, captain and crew are speaking english better than most Egyptians. The gear is really good, they use top quality gear and lures, the boat is a big and stable boat with twin 225hp suzuki engines. Sonar/fishfinder and a lot of knowledge. We started with a day of different types of fishing, we began trolling put of the port and hooked a bonito straight away, we missed a bite and after this we speeded to the first spot. We started jigging and caught different fish, a bonito, some small moontail grouper and after that a big amberjack! Then we got to another spot were we caught a big dogtooth tuna also jigging, later on we tried our luck in 850 meters deep water for a swordfish. Didnt catch it, but we got a pomfret from the depths. After this some jigging and caught some smaller fish. The second day we went out to pursuit the yellowfin tuna, and we found them. It was tough to get a bite so while chumming the tuna swam under the boat and we tried to catch em with a little fish and we got a bite. I got a 30 kilo yellowfin on a really light rod so it took more then 2 hours of fight. My friend did not catch one, so they offered to stay a bit more time then we payed for! We didnt got another tuna but we did caught some skipjacks wich was also fun. Captain and his crew were friendly, experienced and they showed us al the techniques and helped us very well! The boat was fully equipped, everything was great! We highly reccomend this trip and sure that we are coming back!!

What's biting with Double Strike Charter in Hurghada

Giant Trevally is in high season come November, and Sailfish is not uncommon, as well as Amberjack. All of these will fight with every ounce of the strength they have, so you better be ready.
