Deep Sea Fishing, Maldives - Get Caught Hook, Line And Sinker!

With close to 2000 islands coming together to form the Republic of Maldives

, these wonderful coral isles are situated in such a coastal belt that though most are barely above sea level, the surrounding waters are quite deep, enabling small fish and even big game to be available few yards away from the island resorts.

Fishing is not just a sport in the Maldives Islands but the very essence of livelihood. These palm fringed islands with their tranquil waters make fishing a leisurely and thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Given the varied kinds of fish available around the islands, a mixture of interesting and sometimes unusual methods of fishing has been adopted and bait-less fishing is one of them.

Whereas normal fishing is done regularly, big game fishing is indeed more popular as the excitement from landing a big one is an exhilarating experience. Morning time is best if you want to land some big game such as barracuda, marlin, yellow fish, sail fish, sword fish, tuna and Wahoo.

Of course it is essential that the fishing buffs follow instructions and stay away from restricted fishing areas as well as refrain from the use of harpoon guns and fishing for dolphin and whale.

But apart from this, the tourist is free to surrender themselves to the joys of peaceful fishing. Night time fishing too is popular with squirrel fish, snappers, jacks, emperors and barracudas being abundant. However even if you are unlucky in terms of catch, the breathtaking view under the starry skies, and serenity on the peaceful waters at that time of night will be compensation enough.

Certain resorts on the island provide special fishing and big game fishing expeditions to make sure that the guests derive optimum satisfaction from their Maldives Sea fishing experience. The Maldives hotels belonging to the John Keells Hotels Group are such resorts that are worthwhile checking out for a memorable holiday. So be sure to check in to one such hotel when next undertaking Maldives travel and you will be sure to have the adventure of a life time.
