Hilman Sport Fishing

Malé, Maldives
50+ reviews
Having been fishing his whole life, Captain Hilman Abdulla decided to turn his hobby into a job. What's better than doing what you love for a living? His passion has never waned and he's just as excited to get out of bed every morning to get out on the water. The best part of the day is, he claims, obviously catching fish!

    GTs and Doggies!

    Half Day Trip2 adults

    I wanted to catch a GT and hilman did not let me down. Action all day with biggest GT going around 13kg! I also got to tick off a few more species including a 10kg dogtooth. Would definitely recommend this charter. Good fishing gear and great company.

    very great experience非常棒的钓鱼体验,船长很辛苦

    Full Day Trip2 adults

    Me and my wife had a great time with captain Hilman. almost all the time we were using tuna meat bait doing bottom jigging around the reef to ensure bites. caught many types of fish. captain prepared very delicious sandwiches and cold drinks for us. He is very patient looking for spots with fish, if one spot has no bite he will immediately change spot. his crew Sobah is also very helpful, with preparing baita, help us hook the baits all the time. captain also knows how to take great pcitures of your catch. we are from China, only pity is that due to custom regulations we cannot bring back the fish. but all those beatiful memories will last very lpng. Definitely recommended to try fishing with Hilman if you have one day in Male. Finally thamks to Hian and Sobah taking us out during Ramadan, because they cannot drink or eat during the hot day, it was really challenging for them.

    Reported catch:
    Goliath Grouper
    Bohar Snapper
    Red Emperor Snapper
