Considered to be one of the most gratifying and sensational activities one can indulge in, deep sea fishing can be experienced at its best in the islands of Maldives. With a wide range of tour guides which conduct trips on a daily basis, you can try out this activity in the most adventurous manner possible.
There are a number of tips and guidelines to follow in order to make your deep sea fishing trips in Maldives successful. The first step is to spot birds such as terns, herons, gulls, lessers and seagulls which feast on small bait-type fish. If these birds seem to be roaming around, there is a chance of larger game fish being found below the surface of the water. Also one should keep an eye out for floating debris or wood, as large game fish such as sailfish and skip-jack tuna are known to be present at such spots. If you spot any dolphins, you are bound to come across schools of tunas. Those who set out on deep sea fishing trips during full moons can use imitations of soft crab as bait as it is during this period that strippers come in search of the shells shed by crabs.
Since one of the best sites for fishing is near reefs, finding a good reef is important. Big game fish are known to feed on fish which live on reefs including barracuda and red snappers. Using a fishing net is the best way to catch reef fish. There are various kinds of baits to choose from and for larger game, little tropical fish can be used; for instance, yellow-fin tunas can be caught by using snappers. All in all Maldives boasts some of the most unique experiences of deep sea fishing in addition to a range of other exciting activities for you to indulge in.
