Having limited time while on holiday I opted for a 4 hour AM trip. Booking was easy and Filippo got in touch almost immediately to get things organised. On our morning out we set out in search of live baits but struggled to get into the size and species needed despite working hard covering ground, hooking numerous puffer fish, snapper and others. All nice to see but not exactly what I was aiming for. Having searched hard for a while and with one eye on the clock the decision was made to change tactics, send the lures out and cover some water trawling for the remaining time. Great chatting with Filippo and sharing tales until we were interrupted by a screaming reel and it was game on! We ended the morning with a Yellow Fin Tuna and a Skipjack Tuna for our efforts and I was back at my hotel in time for lunch. My fishing fix met and a highlight of the holiday! I couldn’t have asked for anything more and I can’t recommend Fish ‘n Chips highly enough!

Adam took us out trawling for 4 hours this morning, after no signs of life we asked to try jigging. He said no problem but we should give it another 30mins. Very glad we kept going as I hooked into a 33lb yellowfin tuna. Brilliant day from start to finish.

We had a great time and caught lots of fish. Very knowledgeable captain. Fast boat, good equipment and efficient live bait catch. Not long before we hooked up African trumpet fish and stingrays.

The captain was able to save both trumpets from certain death by puncturing the air bladder. Ca. 10 kg Amberjack as a keeper to top it off.

We will definitely be going out again!

We had a great time with Captain Filippo. We didn’t have to travel far to catch baitfish and a couple amberjack. Even though the fishing was a little light today, the captain did a great job and trying to put us on fish. The trip along. Gigantes was quite amazing and beautiful to see it from the water, highly recommend booking with Captain Filippo
