Galapagos Islands Marlin & Tuna Fishing Report
Fellow Anglers
If you have not experienced fishing in the Galapagos Islands on one of our hellacious marlin bite days then you probably have not experienced anything like it on Earth. Anglers starring at the wake are reporting more striped marlin chasing teasers than they can keep track of at moments.
Reports of 2, 4, 6 and even 8 fish in the spread at the same time ranging from 120 to 250 pounds are the order of the day so far almost everyday of January. There is simply no better marlin bite happening anywhere that we know off right now in January 2020. If you want the best striped marlin bite the Pacific Ocean has to offer then this is the place for you.
We have very limited open boats and dates left from now until June so don’t hesitate to book today. 2021 dates are also starting to book up. Our grander marlin fishing out of Isabela only has one available April 2020 date left on this hosted trip with Braden Escobar. This is the real deal so don’t put it off. The fishing trip of a lifetime awaits you.
