Fishing is bringing in a lot of interest in the island surrounded by abundant waters and it is called the Grand Caymans national sport. Adventurous travelers going on their Grand Cayman vacations can start luring in the special game fish such as blue marlin, tuna, wahoo, barracuda and dolphin (mahi-mahi) which are available practically all year round. Since the temperatures of the waters are almost always warm, baitfish are constantly available as well as the big game fish like the 200-lb marlin which sometimes can be reached just 450 meters from the shore. For the more adventurous and active, try out shore fishing, bottom and reef fishing, light tackle and flyfishing subject to the provisions of the Marine Parks Laws. The islands play host to fishing tournaments such as the annual April Cayman Islands International Fishing Tournament, the annual September Rotary Club International Fishing Tournament and the May Braq Jackpot Annual Fishing Club.
