Ladies also fish!

Posted June 6, 2009

The last two trips on the Katfish have been quite entertaining, but not only for the fish caught, but due to the fact that the best catches on both days where caught by ladies! On wednesday it was a lovely polish(?) girl that caught a beautiful white trevally. Plenty of black sea bream, two more whi…

Trolling for Albacore

Posted January 31, 2009

Even though winter has not been very good overal for big game fishing, this week we've began to see some signs that indicate that things could change soon. Plenty of dolphin, pilot whales, lots of sardine and bird activity have been very encouraging, and even though we've only been out twice on the

Fishing in the rain..

Posted January 10, 2009

Even though we've been having great weather since the begining of the year, yesterday was particularly cold and rainy, something quite unusual for Lanzarote, but even so, we had a good day's fishing on the Katfish.

We didn't have a single bite while trolling to our anchoring spot, but once there we …

December fishing in Lanzarote

Posted December 11, 2008

Just like we've been doing these last few weeks, we've been alternating our fishing trips between our two boats, the Margarita and the Katfish. We finished november in the Margarita with one of the most popular catches of the month, a wahoo. This time it was a twenty kilo piece caught by a russian a…

Bluefish part II

Posted September 10, 2008

Today I was meaning to post the photo of the Bluefish we caughton the Katfish last week, but I have to upload it right next to another of a Bluefish we caught yesterday! It could very well be a clon as they both weighted a good six kilos. Oddly enough, it was caught by a client from New Zealand! pro…

Bluefish

Posted September 4, 2008

Yesterday looked like it was going to be a very quiet day on the Katfish. We didn't get a single bite while trolling and the first hour at bottom fishing wasn't very encouraging neither, just the small everyday catches. But all of a sudden we had two really strong bites that cut the leaders of our l…

Wahoo!

Posted September 3, 2008

Last friday we had a very nice catch on the Katfish. A Wahoo that weighted over 20 kilo and was caught while trolling to one of our usual anchoring spots. About 09:30 it was already hooked and after a classy fight of about 40 minutes, I finally gaffed the fish aboard. A beautiful catch of one of my …

Giant Barracuda

Posted August 27, 2008

Days like yesterday do make our job a great great job. Even though we ended up just catching few fish, there was plenty of action on the Katfish for everyone to enjoy.

These last few days there had been plenty of currents on our usual anchoring spots, however yesterday the current seemed to stop. Af…

Barracudas & Atlantic Bonito

Posted August 19, 2008

This last week we have been catching plenty of Atlantic bonito on the Katfish, with daily catches going from one to five kilos. However, the most exciting catches for our fishermen seemed to be the barracudas we fished on wednesday and friday, specially the later, as we caught a quite impressive 3 k…

Heads & Tails

Posted August 12, 2008

As there's been reports of many marlín in the area (many of them from our colleagues on the Margarita Segundo), today we decided to go marlin fishing for a couple of hours with no luck. All we found was a pretty large group of dolphins that looked to be feeding on large balls of baitfish. Later whi…
