THE SPECIES

Bluefin at 'The Supermarket'

This charter targets true big‑game bluefin at a named fishing spot where 100 kg fish are common; the site is famed for producing much larger specimens in season.

THE SEASON

Spring Giants

In May and June Atlantic bluefin move into the area and anglers can expect a run of much larger fish, with many individual catches exceeding 200 kg.

THE MIX

Trolling for Variety

After the peak tuna activity subsides the trip switches tactics: lines go out for little tunny, spearfish and mahi mahi to extend the action and variety of catches.

What the day feels like

What the Day Feels Like

Expect an adrenaline‑charged eight‑hour day: the boat runs to a bluefin hotspot where long, muscle‑driven fights are the norm, and when the tuna calm down the crew switches to trolling—keeping lines in the water for little tunny, spearfish and mahi mahi to maintain steady action.

2
Families with Older ChildrenPossible match: the operator notes the trip is suitable for all ages, but the day is eight hours long and includes heavy‑fight scenarios—plan accordingly for stamina and seasickness.
3
Casual Anglers & First‑TimersA good introduction to bluewater fishing: after bluefin action begins to slow the trip trolls for other species, offering varied chances at bites for less experienced anglers.
