Coastal fishing trip with lightweight gear from the Port of Alcudia
"Light" only means the gear is light, as the fish can weigh up to 10-15kg.
Fishing coastal predators varies throughout the year.
Amberjack, Dentex, Grouper and Barracuda are all caught while deep trolling.
In the autumn months, huge schools of Mahi Mahi come to the coasts. Super-light spinning and fly fishing then becomes an unforgettable experience.
Spearfish and Albacore are caught during trolling and Little Tunny make the winter months a spectacle.
Whatever fish you catch, the reels will scream and your muscles will hurt. Depending on the season and weather, you will either be deep sea trolling or fishing on the surface.
