Tenerife Fish

Posted on by

Tenerife waters are deep and the influence of the gulf currents is strong, making them the ideal habitat for many species of fish. Big eye, Yellow fin and Albacore Tuna can be found from September to April, and skipjack tuna nearly all year round! The big game fishing season normally starts in February for tuna fishing, being April and February the better months; marlin fishing between May and September, peak season is June, July & August.

Sea Fishing

Jump to Sea Fishing Video

What is it called when you go fishing in the ocean?
Saltwater Fishing – fishing in salt waters (oceans). Also called “tidal waters fishing”.

Targeting a species and learning all the methods and situations that can increase your catch rate can be a very important factor in increasing you catch rate when sea fishing. There are a vast number of different species, such as Pollock, fish that can be found in many different locations and can be fished for using many different methods. Where to fish for many species include;

Rock and reef marks are very popular locations for fish.
Both inshore and off shore wrecks will produce various fish pollock to a good size.
Piers will produce fish all year around but. generally these fish are not of a great size.
Weed beds and deep kelp hide a lot of predators and prey.
Broken ground can hold all sorts of species including the pollock. Some fishing techniques
Lure fishing. Deep sea wreck fishing often requires heavy weights to take a jelly worm or metal lure to the sea bed.
Saltwater fly is effective when fish are in shallow water and fish can be of all sizes and at a whole range of locations including piers, reefs and weed beds. Flies that mimic small fish and prawns work well, sea trout flies and saltwater flies are popular.
Float fishing can be used almost anywhere in shallower water.Common baits are sand eel and fillets of fish bait.
Ledgering can work well using the normal baits fish.
Live baits work well for many fish usually resulting in a strong take and suitable equipment needs to be used.

Common Catches when Sea Fishing

The sky’s the limit, or in the case of sea fishing, the sea’s the limit. Even fishing inshore waters, anglers can catch everything from tarpon to flounder. Anglers fishing the northeast coast can expect flounder and cod to congregate in bays and river mouths. Striped bass and bluefish fall for lures from surf-casters, as will weakfish and sea trout.

Farther south, red drum (redfish), tarpon, and bonefish excite anglers as they cruise the shallow flats of bays. These fish can be taken on traditional gear or fly-fishing tackle, nothing special needed for sea fishing. Snook fight like the saltwater version of the large-mouth bass, and sharks cruise off many coasts. With sea fishing, you don’t really know what you’re going to catch next, which is part of its great allure.

About Andrea and Jack Montgomery
In 2003 Andrea and Jack Montgomery swapped their lives in Manchester for the north of Tenerife. Since then they’ve been writing about the Tenerife that lies beyond the brochures. They’ve watched sunrise from the summit of Mount Teide and bathed in midsummer waters at midnight; belted out This Sex is on Fire in bars in Playa de las Américas and cried to Ave Maria at fishermen’s fiestas; downed too many mojitos in Cuban salsa bars and shared vino del pais from goatskin bottles with caballeros in the mountains; slept in palatial hotels and under canvas all on their lonesome in the pine forest; cross-dressed at carnaval and been spellbound at silent, religious parades; battled Atlantic rollers and floated in the rock pools at Garachico, trekked through ravines to remote hamlets and followed tapas trails through Tenerife’s capital.

They continue to experience the parts of Tenerife that many travel writers don’t reach. As well as writing about Tenerife, they chronicle their travels worldwide for their Buzz Trips website and are specialists in the Canary Islands which has resulted in two travel guidebooks and contributions to DK Guides and Frommer’s. They are Tenerife and Canary Islands destination experts for leading UK Slow travel company, Inntravel, and Andrea is Tenerife destination expert for The Telegraph. Jack and Andrea also write hiking guides that sell to over 30 countries around the World and their travel articles and photographs have been published in The Telegraph, The Independent, Ling, Traveller Magazine, Thomas Cook, Easy Jet, Escapades, Club 18-30 as well as various Spanish publications and online travel sites such as Cosmos and Monarch.
