Fishing is an activity that can be practised in different environments and, of course, various techniques can be employed for a rewarding day out. So, as long as you have the relevant licence, you can cast your line and land some impressive catches.
Trolling Fishing
Trolling fishing, also known as trolling, trawl fishing, or dragging. This method is one of the most prominent in oceans and seas, though it can also be practised in riverine environments. Its aim is to catch large fish as the tackle is dragged either from a boat or the shore.
Companies like The Tattoo Fisher or Altea en Llaut give you the chance to enjoy a day out at sea in the waters of Huelva or Alicante, thanks to their fully equipped vessels tailored for this sport.
Spinning
With the help of lures and eye-catching artificial bait, combined with a mix of fast and slow movements, your future catch will mistake the lure for its next prey—when in reality, it’ll be yours.
This method can be used in both freshwater and saltwater, and Top Fisher is a great option to plan your next fishing trip.
Jigging
A fishing technique aimed at catching large fish that dwell on the seafloor. The method involves casting a weighted lure to the bottom and gradually retrieving the line while jigging the rod. What’s the goal? To mimic the movement of a smaller fish fleeing to the surface—luring in your next big catch!
Northwind Fishing Charter is an excellent choice if you want to practise this technique in open sea, as they have vessels perfectly equipped for this type of fishing.
Spearfishing
This is the closest thing to hunting—but underwater, in the sea or a riverine environment. It’s a traditional method that involves freediving and catching fish with a speargun.
To master this technique, you can use different approaches, such as: ambush (staying hidden); stalking (combining patience with slow movements); drop fishing (descending to reach the fish); and many more, depending on the angler. Put yourself to the test with MergulloViveiro!
Big-Game Fishing
This method is very similar to trolling, but it’s exclusively practised in open sea with large fleets, as it requires vessels big enough to stay at sea for extended periods.
The fish targeted in this method are large species, so the gear used must be as durable as possible. Ibiza Top Fishing has everything you need to land massive tuna.
Of course, you can always try other fishing methods, such as fly fishing. But you’ll need to consider the conditions, the species you’re targeting, and the environment... So, what are you waiting for? Dive into this sport!
