Grenada Fishing



True Blue Sportfishing has been the premier Grenada fishing charter operator since 1998 specialising in Blue Marlin, White Marlin, Sailfish and big Yellowfin tunas. We offer a full time professional service using the best tackle, equipment and our experience to make your time on the water as productive as possible.

We have been the top Grenada fishing charter boat in the prestigious "Spice Island Billfish Tournament" many times and in 2003 with our British charter clients Max Huntingford and Paul Britton, we won both the first place boat and top angler prizes. In 2006 we were third overall with 4 sailfish releases.

Simply put - we are dedicated to helping you catch the fish of your dreams

    Grenada SportFishing !




    We are committed to conserving billfish whose stocks are in decline world-wide - hence we tag and release all marlin and sailfish that we catch.


    OFFSHORE
    The main deep water species are:

    Blue Marlin - boat record is 543lb* but we have tagged 2 x 600lb marlin.

    White Marlin and Sailfish - both average around 40lb best around 60lb.

    Yellowfin tuna - we have the Grenada record at 220lb.

    Dorado - boat record is 44lb

    Other species encountered include Wahoo, Skipjacks, Blackfin Tunas etc.

    A Blue Marlin of 275lb is tagged and released

    Grenada is blessed with deep water close to shore so run outs are often only 15 minutes! In fact our record is a blue marlin hook up 20 minutes after leaving the dock! We generally troll skirted ballyhoo and various sizes of artificial lures when fishing deep water. Normally we run 5 lines and 2 teasers.

    Note we tag & release all billfish




    REEF EDGES

    Species are:

    Barracuda - boat record is 30lb

    King Mackerel - boat record is 33lb

    Wahoo - boat record is 61lb



    Other species often caught include Cero mackerel, rainbow runners, horse eye jacks, jack crevalle, black jacks, African pompano etc.
    Occasionally we get surprised when a shark takes a small fish - we landed a 185lb bull shark in this way.
    Grenada has many inshore (and some offshore) reefs and shoals the edges of which can provide good fishing with varied species of fish. In some cases the drop off goes from 80ft to 800 ft very quickly and these steep drops are normally the best spots for a wahoo or kingfish. We troll skirted ballyhoo and small artificials on wire leaders when fishing the reef edges. At least one line will be fished deeper - either on the downrigger or with trolling leads.
