This guide reveals why YFS is the go-to choice for anyone dreaming of catching giant GTs on poppers or hooking powerful dogtooth tuna on vertical jigs. From our custom itineraries to deep reef expertise, discover what makes our trips truly unforgettable.

With YFS, your catamaran fishing charters Seychelles are tailored by pros who live and breathe jigging and popping. This is more than a trip — it’s a serious fishing journey designed by specialists.

Jigging Expertise in Seychelles

At YFS, vertical jigging is more than a technique — it’s our signature strength. Our team knows exactly where and when to drop jigs along deep drop-offs, offshore pinnacles, and current-fed channels. We target dogtooth tuna, amberjack, groupers and more, fishing between 50 and 150 meters with optimized setups.

Thanks to our specialized knowledge of Seychelles bathymetry and fish behavior, we consistently deliver powerful strikes and adrenaline-pumping fights for our clients. Our jigging charters in the Seychelles are intense, precise, and incredibly productive.

Popping Expertise in Seychelles

YFS is built on a passion for GT popping in the Seychelles. Our guides have spent years exploring reef edges, current lines, and shallow lagoons to find the best spots for topwater explosions. Whether targeting GT, bluefin trevally or yellowfin tuna, our anglers cast from prime positions on our stable catamarans.

Our deep understanding of tide movements and bait activity means every popper lands where it counts. We equip you with the right gear, lures, and advice to provoke surface strikes from the most aggressive predators of the Indian Ocean.

Fishing Techniques We Specialize In Seychelles

As the leading fishing charter agency in the Seychelles for popping and jigging, YFS provides the expertise, equipment, and planning needed to fish multiple styles effectively:

  • Heavy Popping: Surface lures launched toward reef edges for GT, tuna, and barracuda.

  • Vertical Jigging: Fast and aggressive jigging over deep reefs to trigger dogtooth tuna and amberjack.

  • Slow Pitch Jigging: Controlled movements for species like jobfish, snapper, and coral trout.

  • Night Jigging: Tactical after-dark sessions targeting nocturnal predators offshore.


Best Season for Jigging & Popping in Seychelles

The Seychelles offers a year-round playground for anglers, but the peak season for jigging and popping charters with YFS runs from October to May. These months provide calm seas, active fish, and perfect conditions for topwater and vertical techniques.

During this season, our team strategically targets specific areas depending on moon phase, currents, and water temperature — maximizing your chances at trophy fish.

Unlike general charter companies, YFS is fully specialized in sport fishing — particularly jigging and popping in the Seychelles. Our boats, crews, and logistics are purpose-built to give you maximum fishing time and expert-level support on every trip.

We don't do tourist tours — we deliver serious sport fishing expeditions designed by anglers, for anglers.

Our Team Makes the Difference in Seychelles

What sets us apart is our team. At YFS, every guide is a seasoned jigging and popping expert with extensive knowledge of Seychelles waters. We know the underwater structure, the seasonal patterns, and how to find the big fish — even when conditions get tricky.

Each trip is tailored around your level, your goals, and the fish you want to target. From beginners to hardcore anglers, we adapt to ensure maximum satisfaction and serious results.
