The boat slips clear of the shallow lagoon and the reef falls away into deep blue—an open swell promises speed and the sudden, uncompromising tug of a pelagic. On a seven-hour charter from Port Mathurin you move between coral ramps and offshore pinnacles, chasing giant trevally with poppers, jigging steep drop-offs, or setting live bait where tuna patrol the thermocline.

The boat slips clear of the shallow lagoon and the reef falls away into deep blue—an open swell promises speed and the sudden, uncompromising tug of a pelagic. On a seven-hour charter from Port Mathurin you move between coral ramps and offshore pinnacles, chasing giant trevally with poppers, jigging steep drop-offs, or setting live bait where tuna patrol the thermocline.
Rodrigues is an uplifted volcanic island ringed by reef; its geology creates nearby seamounts and channels that concentrate baitfish and attract large predators. Fishing here is woven into local culture—small-scale commercial fisheries and visiting charters both lean on knowledge passed down by local crews who read tides, currents, and bird activity to find fish.
Expect a practical, sea-focused day: tackle for trolling and jigging is provided along with life vests, but anglers should be ready to stand, crank, and move with the boat. Weather and tides shape plans—skippers shift departure times to match sunrise, slack tides, and calmer windows. Common targets include giant trevally, yellowfin tuna, wahoo, and reef species, with techniques ranging from popping and hand-lining to drop-shotting.
Bring sun protection, motion-sickness remedies, and non-slip shoes. Respect local regulations and consider catch-and-release for trophy fish. Bookings are manually confirmed and cancellations typically require 24-hour notice—plan around seasonal winds and keep expectations realistic: it’s a day of active boating, tight fights, and ocean rhythm rather than a guarantee of a trophy.
Charter duration is about 7 hours (420 minutes); fishing tackle for trolling is provided along with safety equipment and life vests—confirm specifics with the operator.
Common targets include giant trevally on the reef, yellowfin tuna and wahoo offshore, plus assorted reef species depending on the spot and technique.
Not recommended for pregnant travelers or those with severe back or heart conditions; infants must sit on laps and guests should have moderate fitness.
Full refund if you cancel at least 24 hours before departure; trips may be canceled for bad weather and confirmations are done manually.
