Capt. Nader runs trips out of Hurghada aboard a 23' Grady White. These waters are known for Mahi Mahi and Barracuda and he will show you how to catch them, whether you're trolling or jigging. With 12 years of experience, he has a trick or two up his sleeve, and the only way to learn is to join him out on the water!

    Five stars isn't enough for this trip!

    Game Fishing • 2 adults

    We booked a full 8-hour day on the Red Sea, Hurghada and there wasn't a slow minute in it — from the first drop to the ride back, the crew kept us on fish. Monty, Farag and Hamada are the real deal. They read the water, had the right rigs tied on before we even asked, and coached us through every fight so we landed what we hooked. When the big amberjack came over the rail, the gaff and the camera were ready within seconds. You can tell these guys have spent years doing exactly this. The boat itself was outfitted with professional gear throughout — quality rods and reels, fresh line, proper terminal tackle, and a clean, well-maintained deck. Nothing felt improvised or worn out, which makes a huge difference when you're fighting a strong fish. A special thank you to Nader in the office for organizing everything so smoothly from the first message to the day of the trip, and to the captain, who knew exactly where to take us and put us on fish all day long. If you want a serious fishing trip with a crew that works hard for you every single minute, this is the one. We'll be back.

    Erster Ausflug auf dem Roten Meer

    Game Fishing • 1 adult

    Der Tag war einfach super 🙏🏻 erst einmal hat alles gut mit der Kommunikation funktioniert. Mario hat schnell geantwortet und konnte mir sogar einen Transfer vom Hotel zum Hafen organisieren. Am Boot angekommen ging es auch gleich los. Mit den Jungs auf dem Boot hat man auf jedenfall richtig Spaß und sie bringen einem zum Fisch. An dem Tag haben wir einen Amberjack, Barracuda und viele schöne Snapper und Grouper fangen können. Also absolute Empfehlung von mir 👍🏻

    Reported catch:
    Great Barracuda
    Amberjack
    Red Grouper

    Real fishing

    Game Fishing • 2 adults

    Our captain and guide did all they could in what turned out to be a hard dats fishing. They tried every method but nothing wanted to bite gir almost the whole trip. To make sure we left with a catch they took us towards the end if the day to an area known for squid, we caught 3 including a diamond. Even after the squid they chise to stay out late and we trolled again on the way back to shallower water. A pod of dolphins arrived and then we were double hooked wuth two out if season Yellow Fin Tuna. An amazing finish with a crew who really could not have done more. I would definitely recommend and my husband has already booked day 2 before we leave

    Full day Jigging/Trolling/DeepSea

    Game Fishing • 1 adult

    I went on a full day fishing trip beginning of may 2026. Communication was great, we had to reschedule the trip due to strong winds, but Mario made that work (thanks again!). We started with trolling, caught a skipjack tuna, then did some speed jigging (caught grouper and crimson jobfish). Then we went deep sea fishing with an electric reel and caught lots of big squid at over 600m - I had never done that before, quite a spectacle! There were sandwiches, snacks and drinks (mario even organized some beer as of my request - thanks again!). Overall a very good trip, i would definitely recommend it!

    Reported catch:
    Red Grouper

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Epic Day on the Red Sea! 🎣🔥🌊

    Game Fishing • 2 adults

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Epic Day on the Red Sea! 🎣🔥🌊 Huge thanks and a full-on recommendation to Skipper Mario and his amazing crew! 🙌 Today they took me and a good friend out on the Red Sea for a sunrise-to-sunset fishing adventure — and wow, what a day! 🌅➡️🌇 This team does EVERYTHING in their power to find fish and put you on the bite. No shortcuts, no excuses: • 🐟 Plenty of bait & chum • ⛽ Fuel is never spared • ⏱️ Time and effort go all in • 🎯 Constant guidance and sharp tactics The humor is flying, the vibe is relaxed and fun 😄 — and at the same time the skipper is deeply professional, calm, and incredibly service-minded. You feel safe, guided, and 100% taken care of at all times. 👌 We both landed beautiful Skipjack tuna 🐟💪 First an epic battle on light tackle — pure adrenaline and big smiles — followed by a more forgiving (but still exciting!) fight on heavier gear for our now tired arms and backs 😅🔥 If you’re looking for real sport fishing, great people, top professionalism and an unforgettable day at sea — this is it. I would recommend Skipper Mario and his crew any day, without hesitation! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Tight lines and see you again! 🎣👏

    It was a great trip and the first time, that my son was saltwater fishig. Tough conditions (very hot and a lot of current), made it a bit of a challnge. We had some nice fish, but unforunatley not the ones we were hoping for. The gear and tackle was ok. The reels need new line. We wasted a lot of time due line breaks.... The boat did its job well. It could use a little maintenance. Everyone who's looking for a fun Trip should take a look at these guys.

    We caught two huge sailfish & many other species with several techniques, i.e. trolling, spinning, jigging, popping. Just an awesome day, with driving to many different spots, incredible weather, high end equipment and lures & best crew ever! Samuel & Vigo are highly professional and know what they are doing. If you want to catch big game, this is it. Look no further! I would always book them again, no question. Enjoy!

One of our big Games for swordfish

Sep 7, 2023 • Hurghada
a great night full of fighting.. It wasn't our main target in the trip, as the trip was for deep drop fishing. At the day we target Ruby Snapper, Amber jack and Giant grouper. At the night it's the time for squid ?. We landed a lot of Snappers during the day. In the evening we stared to target the squid, we tried 3 different spots but in all of them we didn't find the big size we are looking for. At the midnight while we reeling we felt a big bite it was about to break the rod. We know this bite very well. It's a swordfish. We prepared the special setup for it using a big live bait and we started to go deeper waiting for the big bite. And it happened a great sounds from the reel, here we began,more than 250 meters of line we have to reel it. It was amazing feeling to land it after 40 minutes. The crazy thing that this scenario repeated once again after 1 hour.. We were lucky at this beautiful night.. Happy ending of the day ??
