Fishing techniques

We don't stick to a single technique. We choose the one the sea calls for on each trip.

Trolling

We trail lures as we cruise, covering long stretches of open sea in search of pelagic species. It's the main technique on our offshore trips: dynamic, active and full of anticipation on board.

Jigging

Vertical fishing: the lure drops and rises in controlled movements to reach mid-water and bottom species. More technical and hands-on, ideal for coastal fishing and for specialized trips such as jumbo squid.

Casting or Top Water

When the sea allows it, we fish on the surface, interacting directly with active fish right in front of you. It's the most visual and dynamic style of all, and the captain always decides on it based on the conditions.

The surprises the sea can bring you

Swordfish and albacore tuna offshore, Chilean croakers and Pacific bonito along the coast, yellowtail kingfish exploding at the surface. Every species has its own season and its own way of fighting.

Hear from them

“It was one of the most fun adventures I've ever had: we went out on the Green Marlin with Paulo and Sergio, and I felt very safe from the moment we set sail. We caught about 20 bonitos and the ceviche on board was phenomenal. I recommend it 100% and I hope to come back.”

Álvaro Montero

“The offshore expeditions with Marlin Expediciones have been exceptional: I'd highlight the quality of the fishing, the service, the equipment and the safety. You can feel the crew's passion and commitment. It's an excellent option for anyone looking for quality fishing and personalized service.”

Mauricio Valenzuela

“I recommend the trip with Marlin Expediciones to my fishing friends: it's the best I've experienced in the Valparaíso Region. With the support of Paulo Bustos and a boat with state-of-the-art engines, we enjoyed whales, sharks, birds and fishing for tuna and bonito. On another level!”

Juan Orellana

“My fly-fishing team, together for more than 15 years, rated the coastal trip a 10 out of 10: a modern boat, excellent safety protocols, good equipment and a crew that knows its trade. We caught 20 bonitos in half a day, with ceviche on board. We'll be back, and we'll share it with more friends.”

Rafael Loredo

“I had an excellent experience sailing and fishing with Marlin Expediciones. I recommend it both for anglers and for people who just want to try this activity for the first time. The service includes all the equipment (rods, reels, lures and technical clothing), and the boat is in perfect condition, very well equipped and comfortable for fishing.”

Tomáš Svoboda

“It was an incredible sea fishing experience. I didn't need any previous fishing knowledge, and they have all the gear you need. Highly recommended!”
