    Dream fishing with Hassan for tuna

    Full Day Trip – Tuna • 1 adult

    I had an unforgettable time fishing with Hassan at sea. He made my vacation perfect and brought me to the tuna. He is a very focused and good captain and knows what he is doing. When we suddenly had wahoo next to the boat, we quickly switched to trolling and immediately caught two. We caught a lot of fish, including a 35kg YFT. On the reef we fished for GTs, where I unfortunately lost three during the fight. But there were also Bluefin Trevally and and and... He gave his all so that we could catch all the fish. For both days we were perfectly supplied with enough water and soft drinks at sea, as well as snacks. The fishing tackle is of the finest quality: Zenaq rods, Saragosa and Stella reels. I will definitely be back. Thank you !!!

    Reported catch:

    I was fishing guide in Alaska for over 20 years and have fished in many places around the world. Fishing With captain Hassan was one of my best trips of my life. I would highly recommend him giving him an A+ 100%..

    The captain and his crew were very friendly and professional. After learning that our target species was GT, they took us to many great spots and we got a lot of bites and caught a lot of fish. Ultimately, they helped us realize our dream GT. I will definitely come back to fish with the captain next time. I also recommend all my friends to fish with the Shiyaaz in the Maldives. Looking forward to our next meeting! 非常难忘的一天,100分的体验,100分的推荐!船长和他的船员们都非常的友善,专业。在得知我们的目标鱼种是GT之后,他们带我们去了很多非常棒的标点,我们获得了非常多的咬口以及钓到了很多鱼类。最终,他们帮助我们实现了梦想中的GT。 下次我一定还会回来和船长一起钓鱼的,我也推荐我的所有朋友,来马尔代夫钓鱼,一定要找Shiyaaz。期待我们的下次相遇!

    I had my first GT fishing trip with Captain Hassan and his crew, and it was a success! Their expertise and knowledge of various fishing spots were impressive. They patiently taught me casting techniques and lure actions, perfect for beginners like myself. I highly recommend this charter for an exciting and educational fishing experience, suitable for everyone from beginners to advanced.

    Had an amazing experience with Hassan. As an inexperienced sea fisherman Hassan and Lute really looked after me. Went to some awesome spots and tried everything they could to get me some more fish! Caught a lovely GT and missed a few. Would highly recommend a trip with Shiyax and can’t wait to go again!
