Nestled in the heart of the Mediterranean, Sicily offers a paradise for anglers seeking a thrilling sport fishing experience. The easiest and shortest adventure unfolded recently with a guest, Max who embarked on a short but intense inshore trolling trip. This trip during the first half of December was meant to target mostly small species like the Frigate Tuna, False Albacore, and Mediterranean Barracuda. However, Mahi Mahi, small Swordfish, Bluerunner, little Amberjack, and other species also contributed to an action-packed couple of hours inshore light trolling game fishing on the crystal-clear waters of the southeast corner of Sicily.

The highlight of this journey was a captivating video created by our guest, Max, @TheSpeciesSeeker who captured the excitement and beauty of inshore trolling. The footage showcased the stunning Sicilian coastline, the azure waters, and, of course, a bit of the diverse marine life that thrives beneath the surface.

Max and his girlfriend, armed with light but top-notch fishing gear provided by Sicily Fishing, shared with the crew some interesting moments, from the strategic deployment of lures to the adrenaline-pumping moments when a catch is hooked, including some lost fish. The video perfectly captured the essence of this light game sport fishing in Sicily.

The video is part of a YouTube channel that documents action-packed fishing adventures aiming to catch and describe with custom “fish cards” as many species as possible, giving the spectators insight info as the common name, scientific name, location, technique, moment of the day, used bait and more.

In conclusion, Sicily Fishing is renowned for its expertly guided fishing expeditions, and inshore trolling is a perfect option for young teams and inexperienced anglers. The video documented the thrill of chasing Frigate Tuna, renowned for their speed and agility, as well as the powerful runs of False Albacore and the fierce strikes of the Mediterranean Barracuda.

To better understand the essence of light inshore trolling in Sicily, it is worth adding some pictures of the other catches which are regular of the entire season in which this technique is practiced, taken between September and December 2023.

The video produced by Max, together with the above gallery, serves as a testament to describe inshore light trolling with Sicily Fishing. From the picturesque landscapes to the heart-pounding moments of reeling in new species, every frame encapsulates the essence of a common and authentic old-school Sicilian fishing technique.
