Different Fishing Styles in Seychelles

Our Seychelles fishing trips cater to all types of fishing enthusiasts, offering a variety of techniques that will suit your skills and interests:

  • Trolling: Ideal for targeting pelagic species such as marlin, sailfish, and yellowfin tuna. This method provides a thrilling challenge as you chase down these iconic fish.

  • Vertical Jigging: Focuses on deeper waters to catch species like dogtooth tuna, grouper, and snapper, using jigs that match the depth and current conditions.

  • Surface Fishing (Popping): Perfect for targeting species like GTs and blue jacks. The explosive strikes of these fish on poppers are a spectacle!

  • Night Fishing: A thrilling experience, where we target nocturnal predators using specialized rigs and lights to catch fish like snapper and grouper.

Best Season for Fishing in Seychelles

While fishing in Seychelles is exceptional all year long, the best time to visit is from October to May. During these months, the seas are calmer, the pelagic species are more active, and the conditions are perfect for a variety of fishing techniques such as trolling, jigging, and popping.

We plan each Seychelles fishing trip according to the season’s best conditions to ensure your fishing experience is optimized for success.
