Reel in Big Game on Tobago's Blue Waters

Hey there, angler! Ready to hit the high seas off Tobago for some world-class offshore fishing? Grand Slam Fishing Charters has got you covered with our 4-hour private adventure that'll have you battling some of the Caribbean's most sought-after gamefish. Whether you're a seasoned pro or it's your first time wetting a line, we'll put you on the fish and show you why Tobago is a top-rated sportfishing destination.

What's the Deal?

For 500 bucks, you and up to seven of your buddies can hop aboard our fully-rigged offshore vessel for four action-packed hours on the water. We'll cruise past Tobago's stunning coastline before hitting the deep blue where the big boys play. Our seasoned crew knows these waters like the back of their hand, so you're in for a treat. We've got top-notch gear, but feel free to bring your lucky rod if you've got one. Just remember, we're cash only for the balance at the end of the trip - so come prepared!

Fishing the Tobago Way

Out here, we're all about trolling for the big ones. We'll set up a spread of lures and baits that'll tempt everything from high-flying sailfish to hard-charging wahoo. Keep your eyes peeled for birds working the water - that's often a dead giveaway for where the fish are feeding. When we mark fish on the sonar or spot activity on the surface, it's game on! Be ready to jump on a rod at a moment's notice because when these fish strike, it's fast and furious. Don't worry if you're new to this style of fishing - our crew will walk you through everything from setting the hook to fighting and landing your catch.

Top Catches This Season

Anglers have been crushing it lately with some killer catches. The sailfish bite has been on fire, with several boats reporting multiple hookups per trip. We've also seen some chunky wahoo coming over the rails - perfect for the grill if you're looking to take home some of the tastiest fish in the sea. The jack crevalle have been providing non-stop action for those who like a good tug-of-war, and there's always the chance of tangling with a massive marlin that'll test your stamina and make for the fishing story of a lifetime.

Species You'll Want to Hook

Atlantic Sailfish: These acrobatic beauties are the crown jewel of Caribbean sportfishing. Known for their incredible aerial displays, sailfish will leave you in awe as they tailwalk across the water's surface. They average around 6-7 feet in length and put up a fight that'll have your arms burning. Spring and early summer are prime time for sails, but we see them year-round in Tobago's waters.

Tarpon: The "silver king" is a prehistoric powerhouse that'll test your mettle. These chrome-plated bruisers can top 100 pounds and are famous for their gill-rattling jumps. Tarpon love to hang around the mouths of rivers and coastal lagoons, so we often target them as we're heading out to the deep. They're catch-and-release only, but the memories of battling one will last a lifetime.

Wahoo: If you're looking for speed, wahoo is your fish. These streamlined torpedoes can hit speeds of 60 mph and strip line from your reel faster than you can blink. They're also some of the best-eating fish in the ocean, with firm white flesh that's perfect for grilling or sashimi. We see wahoo year-round, but the bite really heats up in the winter months.

Crevalle Jack: Don't let their smaller size fool you - these guys punch way above their weight class. Pound for pound, jacks are some of the hardest fighting fish in the sea. They often travel in large schools, so when you find them, it's non-stop action. Jacks are great for anglers of all skill levels and provide a ton of fun on light tackle.

White Marlin: The smallest of the Atlantic marlins, but still a prized catch for any angler. White marlin are known for their agility and acrobatics, often putting on a show with multiple jumps during the fight. They average around 50-80 pounds but can top 150. Late summer and early fall are your best bet for hooking into one of these beauties off Tobago.

Why Anglers Keep Coming Back

Listen, I've been running charters all over the Caribbean, and there's something special about Tobago. Maybe it's the way the lush green hills contrast with the deep blue of the ocean. Or maybe it's how you can be battling a 100-pound sailfish one minute and spotting sea turtles the next. But I think what really keeps folks coming back is the variety. On any given day, you've got a shot at hooking into a trophy gamefish, filling the cooler with tasty wahoo, or just enjoying the thrill of constant action with jacks and bonito. Plus, our waters are less pressured than some of the more well-known fishing destinations, so you've got a better chance of having that epic day on the water you've been dreaming about.

Time to Book Your Spot

Alright, angler - you've heard the pitch, now it's time to wet a line! Our 4-hour offshore adventure is the perfect taste of what Tobago has to offer, whether you're sneaking away from the resort for a morning or looking to introduce the kids to the thrill of big game fishing. At $500 for up to 8 people, it's a steal for a private charter with some of the best guides in the business. Remember, we provide all the gear, knowledge, and enthusiasm - you just need to bring your game face and be ready for some rod-bending action. Don't let another season slip by without checking Tobago off your fishing bucket list. Give us a shout, and let's get you hooked up with some Caribbean giants!

Learn more about the species

Atlantic Sailfish

Atlantic Sailfish are lightning-fast predators, hitting speeds up to 68 mph. These beauties grow to 7-8 feet long and put up an epic fight. You'll find them in the open ocean, usually in the top 30-65 feet of water. They love warm tropical areas around 70-83°F. Peak season here is winter, but we can catch them year-round. Anglers prize sailfish for their acrobatic leaps and long, powerful runs. To land one, use a 12-15 weight rod with heavy sinking line. Bright pink and white tube flies work well. My top tip: when you hook up, be patient. Let it run and tire itself out before you start reeling. It's a marathon, not a sprint with these guys.

Atlantic Sailfish

Crevalle Jack

Crevalle Jack are bruisers of the flats, growing up to 4 feet and 60 pounds. You'll spot their golden sides flashing as they chase bait in shallow bays, around reefs, or near oil rigs. They're here year-round but really fire up in summer. Anglers love jacks for their bulldog strength and never-say-die attitude. They'll test your drag and your arms. To catch one, watch for birds working bait schools. Throw silver spoons or topwater plugs into the fray. Work them fast - jacks love the chase. Pro tip: when you hook up, get ready to run up and down the boat. These guys will use every trick to break you off on structure.

Crevalle Jack

Tarpon

Tarpon are the silver kings of the flats. These prehistoric beasts can top 280 pounds, but 80-100 is more common. You'll find them in shallow coastal waters, estuaries, and even up some rivers. They're air-breathers, so watch for them rolling at the surface. Spring and summer are prime time as they migrate through. Anglers love tarpon for their bone-jarring strikes and spectacular aerial displays. They're pure muscle and will test your stamina. For the best shot, use live bait like pinfish or mullet. Float it under a cork and hold on tight. Local tip: when a tarpon jumps, drop your rod tip to give it slack. That'll help keep the hook set.

Tarpon

Wahoo Fish

Wahoo are the speedsters of the deep, capable of 60 mph bursts. They typically run 3-5 feet long but can reach over 8 feet. Look for them in open water, often near drop-offs or floating debris. They prefer warm water above 70°F. Summer and fall are peak seasons here. Anglers prize wahoo for their blistering runs and excellent table fare. Their white, flaky meat is a real treat. To catch one, try high-speed trolling at 12-15 knots with wire leaders. Lures that mimic flying fish or squid work well. My go-to trick: use a planer to get your lure deeper where the big ones lurk.

Wahoo Fish

White Marlin

White Marlin are the ninjas of the deep. They're smaller than their blue cousins, topping out around 9 feet and 180 pounds. You'll find them in open ocean, often near underwater canyons or drop-offs. They prefer warm, tropical waters. Peak season here is late summer into fall. Anglers prize white marlin for their acrobatic fights and elusive nature. Landing one is a real feather in your cap. To catch them, try trolling rigged ballyhoo or squid. Watch the spread closely - they're known for subtle bites. My top trick: when a marlin strikes, don't set the hook right away. Let it eat and turn before slowly coming tight. Patience is key with these smart fish.
