DEEP DROPPING FOR THE MIGHTY SWORDFISH
The Maldives is renowned for its diverse fishery, yet the Deep Drop Swordfish grounds remain relatively unexplored. Join us aboard the only charter specializing in deep-dropping at Addu Atoll, the southernmost atoll of the Maldives archipelago. Fish aboard our 38′ center console equipped with cutting-edge electronics and tackle. Whether you’re engaging in a stand-up battle with Shimano Tiagras or experiencing the thrill of fighting your trophy with state-of-the-art LPs featuring high-quality custom bent butts, every moment promises excitement. While the primary target of this expedition is the elusive mighty Swordfish, the area teems with abundant bycatch such as Big Eye Tuna, Threshers, Makos, Escolar, Brilliant Promfet, and record-size Black Snoeks, ensuring an unforgettable fishing experience.
This expedition caters to individuals at all experience levels, whether they embark on this adventure for the first time or are seasoned professionals. You can customize your experience by setting your preferences and requirements. Alternatively, if you’re new to this, rest assured that we have everything meticulously prepared and put in place to ensure a seamless and enjoyable fishing trip from start to finish.
