Daryl was brilliant from start to finish. We were an inexperienced group and he made a great effort to explain what he was doing and why he was doing it, such as choosing the spot, and which lines we were using to target which species.
We had a fighter get away from us, but then went to a reef and did some spinning and caught loads of little fish, like trigger fish, razer fish and seabream. He helped each of us get the technique right, and by the end we walked away with a bag full enough for dinner.
We would absolutely love to go out again with Daryl - so hope to return to Malta soon! Highly recommend :)

Our guide was excellent in communicating via the FishingBooker app and was flexible on timing for our adventure. He was kind, patient and knowledgable and we caught over 20 small fish. We had two kids with us (age 9 and 11) and he ensured that they caught several and was very conscious of safety and fun. The area itself just gorgeous and the boat and equipment were all well kept and nice! We had a fantastic time and I would highly recommend this to anyone!
Getting to the pier from the cruise ship dock was challenging as the long line of taxiโs off the ship only wanted to offer tours so this was an unexpected stressor. The walk to the pier is lovely but takes ~45 minutes. I would advise a bit more pre-planning than I did on this if you are a cruise passenger! Certainly not anything to do with the wonderful fishing adventure but a smooth transfer from ship to pier will hopefully enhance your experience.

The guide was incredibleโfull of energy and constantly on the move the entire trip. We were a group of six, and he made sure everyone was engaged and having a great time. We caught plenty of small fish and even landed a big one: a 7kg amberjack! He clearly knows what heโs doingโvery skilled, professional, and passionate. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable fishing trip!
The captain called it โfun fishingโ. We vent to a reef and spent time catching various small fish, endlessly. It was a short, 4 hour, trip. Nice time on the water with a magnificent Malta backdrop. Turns out, for a serious fishing trip, and serious fish, you have to book an 8 hour trip and leave by 6 AM, which would have been impossible with our family under circumstances. So we are happy with what we got. The captain was very nice as a person, kids would love to have a grandpa like him.
