Broadbill swordfish record – caught by day.

It had been a long day. On board the big game boat White Mischief the crew had waited patiently, drifting slowly with the winds and the current forty kilometres offshore, a single rod standing with it’s line vertically down, drifting a bait along the bottom, over 500 metres down in the abyssal depths of the […]

Pioneering Broadbill fishing in Kenya!

Nick Michaelides & Andy Thomas set out from Watamu yesterday, Sunday 6th February, on the boat “White Mischief” for their second attempt at catching a Broadbill during the hours of day light. Inspired by an article they read in an American fishing magazine these chaps spent the day deep dropping in 1700ft of water off […]

Slow fishing everywhere despite better weather

The strong winds have eased a lot in recent days, but the fishing continues slow, with billfish hard to catch – while the skippers mostly think there are plenty of fish around the Rips, they are not coming up, and when they do appear behind the lures they are reluctant feeders and difficult to hook.

Fishing variable as strong winds blow

More black marlin are being caught than stripies at the moment, and while on one day good catches are recorded all round the next day just a few sailfish are found. The wind blows very strongly at midday, and when it has been blowing at night as well it makes for very rough conditions far […]

Live bait for black marlin for those bigger fish

There are two entirely different methods of catching marlin. Most popular perhaps is trolling a selection of flashy lures at about eight knots usually far offshore, which results in strikes mainly from striped marlin or the rarer and bigger blue marlin, although some black marlin are hooked but these are often smaller fish. The other […]

Strong winds bring up the billfish

Strong winds at night have made for some rough water recently, but this often has the effect of bringing the billfish up to the surface – perhaps to enjoy the extra oxygen in the churned-up layers? Marlin are being caught every day, and there seem plenty of sailfish as well, although some days these do […]

Fishing patchy but billfish still around

There seem to be plenty of billfish around, but not so easy to catch, while for sailfish the emphasis seems to have moved from the Rips to nearer waters in the Malindi and Watamu areas. The weather continues good, not too hot, still in the mornings and a good breeze getting up later. The sailfish […]
