FISHING BOAT TRIPS and FISHING ON THE ISLAND:

Phuket is Thailand’s largest Island and the surrounding waters are well known to be home to Tuna, Marlin, Sailfish and Yellow fin Tuna Fish, aswell as many more varieties. Phuket has two seasons, the “Dry Season” which is considered High Season, running from the beginning of November until the end of April, and the “Wet Season” which often has tropical down pours of rain and harsh winds. Fishing is considered to be good all year round in Phuket, but specifically towards the end of the Wet Season, from July to October. Do remember the weather out on the open sea can be rougher at this time of the year and you must always take care and listen to the boats crew. The Fishing Boat Companies will cancel trips if it is considered too rough and unsafe.

With safety and experience or a professional crew as a main priority, it is recommended that you contact our Tour Manager who will advise you on the most suitable options for your fishing experience. The best options will be based on your experience, desire, ages and stamina of guests and budget, and with many options to consider in Phuket, is is necessary to get professional advice.

If you enjoy fishing, but do not want to venture out on a boat, then Chalong Fishing Park offers you the opportunity to fish for Fresh Water Fish, without have to leave the island and find your sea legs.

FISHING WITH WAHOO FISHING:

Private Boat:

Wahoo Fishing has a wide variety of boats on offer, so can cater for the needs, budgets & desired activities of all guests. All boats are of the highest standard offering full five star service. On a typical day out there will a minimum of three crew including chef and hostess to pamper your every wish and always fresh clean towels and soap products on board.
Wahoo's now world–renowned day charters are designed to be as enjoyable for a complete novice as they are for an experienced angler. For a day trip we can recommend 2 destinations: Racha Yai/Racha Noi and The Drop Off. If you are interested in a luxury private boat fishing charter, please contact WAHOO FISHING directly for a personalised quotation.

Racha Yai/ Racha Noi:Situated 18 miles south of Phuket are the Racha Islands. They are very popular for day trip excursions due to their close proximity to Phuket but they produce very rewarding catches. The North East corner of Racha Yai is a notorious Sailfish hot–spot and produces outstanding action. Wahoo, Dorado, Barracuda and multitudes of Skipjack, and Longtail Tuna are regularly caught off this island.
Racha Noi and the rocky pinnacles to the south of the island can offer sizzling sport with Black Marlin, Sailfish, Wahoo and several other desirable gamefish.

The Drop Off:The drop–off, on Phuket's continental shelf offers anglers their best chance of Black Marlin action. The drop–off is also the haunt of Yellowfin Tuna – though rarely trophy size. Big Wahoo often cruise the shelf, as do Barracuda and impressive Dorado. The Skipjacks are generally much bigger than their cousins caught in shallower water. Sailfish do show up occasionally but seldom in great numbers.
