The detailed programme

We invite you to discover the wealth of fishing in Cape Verde during 9 days' holiday for 7 days of multi-technique fishing : Jigging / Popping / Night fishing... We'll take advantage of each of our trips to try our hand at trolling for rostrum fish. We will tackle each of the Cape Verde fishing techniques depending on the season, weather conditions and fish behaviour. We can also decide to focus on a particular fishing technique according to your wishes.

Our fishing holidays in Cape Verde are geared towards "Catch & Release but it is possible to keep one table fish a day, as long as it does not belong to one of the endangered species. Eating fish is not a problem, as there are no diseases affecting the local species. The many configurations of fishing holidays in Cape Verde will satisfy both novice anglers and experienced record hunters.

THE BOAT

We look forward to welcoming you aboard the Bibitonic. This 9-metre, centre-console type open boat is powered by a Yamaha 60 hp High Trust, and equipped with a Humminbird sounder/GPS combo (Type Low 50Khz sensor).

In the event of a technical incident, the boat has a 20hp two-stroke emergency engine and a 406 MHz satellite distress beacon.

Several stainless steel rod holders are located on the front and rear decks to accommodate your popping and jigging rods.

Go-Pro mounts have also been installed at strategic corners of the boat for anglers wishing to make videos with their own cameras.

An LED lighting system has been installed for night fishing, making it easier to see clearly and recharge the phosphorescent lures before sending them back into the abyss.
