    December fishing trip

    Full Day Trip on Reefer Boat2 adults

    The guide was very nice and also very keen to catch fish. Unfortunately, the fish weren't biting that day. I was probably there at the wrong time of year.

    these guys are professionals

    Full Day Trip on Reefer Boat3 adults

    these guys are pros, you can rent good gear, they know the places and try to do everything to ensure that you catch fish. Of the minuses - a boat without a toilet, not suitable for a family vacation, it seems to me that this is specifically for those who know where they are going (fishing), for casting, the boat is suitable for a maximum of two people, for jigging there were three of us and it was fine (not super comfortable, but ok) we fished for 4 days, there was quite a strong wind, on one of the days the wind was too strong, but these fishermen still went fishing with us (even though everyone understood that it would be almost impossible to catch fish in such conditions) for them There is no such thing as bad weather for fishing, it is both good and not so good, since you need to understand and decide about the wind yourself. in any case, it was a memorable trip, a lot of emotions and adrenaline, I have never had to fish in strong waves. on 2 of the four days we caught fish (one day we fished for about 6 hours, the other days for 11) the team is very nice and positive, which makes fishing even more enjoyable. I recommend it, but check the wind!;)

    It was a great pleasure having you on board Vladimir, waiting for you in the winter for the tunas 😉

What's biting with Reefer Sport Fishing Charter in Hurghada

As the weather is going from scorching hot to acceptably hot, the bite is also cooling down. Use your time on the water to go snorkeling or scuba diving, as the bite isn't the best.

Coral Trout Fishing with Reefer

Apr 1, 2025 • Hurghada
The Red Sea continues to deliver world-class fishing, and this past series of trips aboard Reefer Sport Fishing has been nothing short of incredible. Our anglers have been landing some absolute trophy-sized coral trout (Plectropomus spp.), proving once again why this region is a paradise for serious fishermen. On multiple trips over the past few weeks, we’ve put our clients onto some massive coral trout, with several standout catches pushing the limits. These stunning fish, known for their vibrant red and blue-spotted coloration, have been hitting aggressively on both live bait and artificials. Whether jigging over deep reefs or casting near coral outcrops, the action has been non-stop. One particularly memorable session saw an angler hook into a true giant, putting their tackle to the test before finally bringing it to the boat. The combination of powerful runs and relentless head shakes made for an epic battle, but in the end, skill and patience won out. The best fishing has been on the drop-offs and reef edges, where these predators ambush baitfish in the strong currents. Morning and late afternoon have been the prime windows, with tides playing a big role in fish activity. These back-to-back successful trips have once again set Reefer Sport Fishing apart as the go-to charter for serious anglers looking to target the Red Sea’s biggest and best. If you’re after monster coral trout and an unforgettable fishing experience, there’s only one place to be. Tight lines and see you on the water!

Spanish Anglers vs. the Red Sea

Mar 11, 2025 • Hurghada
Our friends from Spain traveled all the way to Hurghada for one mission—targeting sport fish on jigs and poppers. With rough weather adding an extra challenge, they pushed through the conditions and made every cast count. Their main goal? Landing a GT. And despite the tough seas, they did exactly that—hooking into some solid giant trevallies throughout the trip. The fight was intense, the action was non-stop, and their determination paid off in the end. Nothing beats the thrill of topwater strikes and hard-hitting poppers, especially when it results in trophy fish! Looking forward to having them back for another round. #ReefersSportFishing #FishingEgypt #GTFishing #JiggingAndPopping #NoPainNoGT

Fishing Through the Storm

Feb 9, 2025 • Hurghada
Danny and Winnie from Germany are some of our most dedicated clients, joining us once a year to chase a variety of species. Whether it’s giant trevally or yellowfin tuna, they’ve had their fair share of big catches—but there’s one thing they can never escape… the weather! Strong winds, high waves, and rough conditions seem to follow them every trip, yet nothing stops them from getting out on the water. This year was no different, but as always, they pushed through the challenges and landed some incredible fish. Their determination and passion for fishing prove that when you’re with Reefers Sport Fishing, the adventure never stops—no matter the conditions! Can’t wait to see what next year brings (hopefully calmer seas, but we won’t count on it)! #ReefersSportFishing #FishingEgypt #RoughSeasBigFish #GTFishing #YellowfinTuna #NoExcuses

Lars’ Unforgettable Red Sea Adventure

Feb 3, 2025 • Hurghada
Lars from Germany joined us at Reefer Sport Fishing with one goal in mind—catching his dream fish, a giant trevally. With only one day on the water, the pressure was on, but the Red Sea delivered in spectacular fashion! In a single action-packed day, Lars managed to land three different GTs, experiencing firsthand their raw power and explosive topwater strikes. But the real surprise of the trip? A Dogtooth Tuna on stickbait—an incredibly rare catch on topwater! This trip was all about surface action, and it couldn’t have been a better introduction to saltwater fishing for Lars. His first-ever experience fishing in the Red Sea turned into one of the best trips of his life. We can’t wait to have him back for another adventure! #ReefersSportFishing #FishingEgypt #TopwaterFishing #GTFishing #DoctusTuna #RedSeaFishing

The Ultimate Red Sea Duo

Jan 20, 2025 • Hurghada
Our good friend Hannes from Germany just wrapped up another incredible trip with us, and this time, the Red Sea truly delivered! Along with his friend Max, Hannes landed two of the most prized fish in these waters—a giant dogtooth tuna and a solid GT. The action didn’t stop there. Throughout the trip, they kept the momentum going, landing multiple dogtooth tunas and GTs, with Hannes scoring an good-sized GT to top it all off. It was one of those days where everything lined up perfectly—great fishing, great company, and unforgettable memories. Hannes, we can’t wait for the next adventure! #ReefersSportFishing #FishingEgypt #DogtoothTuna #GTFishing #RedSeaGiants #UnforgettableFishing
