Maakeyolhu Fishing Charters

The name "Maakeyolhu" meaning Head Fisherman in our local language Dhivehi is a name which was well thought out and brought to its existence. We are proud Maldivian fishermen and we always wanted to make our charter as local as possible starting with the name.

With plenty of drop-offs and channels all across the Maldives, Jigging always land you plenty of fish and quite often fish that can give you a real fight. Big Dogtooths, GT's, Barracudas and if at the right location Yellowfin Tuna take the properly worked jig with surprising regularity.

Popping is our speciality. There is no better site for a fisherman than to see a sudden explosion on the surface and the popper or swimbait being smashed while the reel starts to loose line rather rapidly. All too much for the many species of rather aggressive hunters lurking the clear waters of the coral reefs in the Maldives. Be it a GT, Dogtooth, Red Bass, Coral Trout or Barracuda they simply cannot resist a surface lure that is properly displayed.

Choose your spot anywhere in the Maldives and book a trip with "Maakeyolhu" and get the thrill of a lifetime.
