Hi Pauline
Have been here for 18 years and fished offshore every year. we get a lot of Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, several types of Tuna, Sailfish and .. Black Marlin.

There is an open fihing competition leaving from Clearwater Bay Marina ay 07.00 on 31 July.
If anyone is interested in chartering Mojo then please contact Asiatic Marine.
Joe,
Call into Sai Kung if you ever have time away from Malaysia.
We got a range of saltwater fishing, (flys), reservoir fishing and offshore trolling to suit most needs, and swap stories over a beer or two.
Hi Charlie,
This is not related to offshore fishing however it is related to fishing....I'm thinking of buying a speedboat, the ones that the local fishermen use, the blue colour one that is commonly seen around Hong Kong. Would you happen to know where I could get one, either new or secondhand...also would be good to know the price...I'm planning on getting one to get around sai kung to go fishing...
Appreciate any help.
Cheers,
Mike....
Mike,
Plenty of them around but careful of the licensing procedure.
Those sampans are actually only used for Fish farms with a max capacity of 4 pax and HP of 15, but this is all a grey area under marine dept policy.
I can ask around for you but depends on what size engine you want and budget...u should check out Sai Kung waterfront and some of the fish farms, don't expect them to be of high integrity and I would be cautious in going too far out or even around the headland - big seas and steep cliffs make for messy rescues. Another broker able to help you would be Terry Fung from Cyclone Runners - do a google check and give him a call.
Charlie,
Hope all is well. Quick? How much do you charge to go to the Oil Rig? Also how long would it take to get there?
Look forward to your reply.
Cheers,
Tsewang

Hi Nemo:
Good to have you here; you planning on heading over, maybe with some sea fishing tackle?
Not sure if Charlie'll divulge a trade secret or two; but can see fishermen on places like rocks by Po Toi (looks like they are left there by boat, and presumably collected later).
Martin
Nemo,
You might even try some flyfishing on the reservoirs (permit required) or even off some of the public piers in estuarine areas.
Hi everyone,
I was recently sitting on a friends new boat (47ft pleasure yacht) having a drink and the discussion of getting out of HK for a few days and doing some fishing popped up.
We are both relative amatures to the deepsea stuff but would like to hear from people about what kit would be needed where to go and what to do. We wouldn't really mind about not catching anything as it is mearly an excuse to go exploring, but it would be nice :)
Hope someone can help point us in the right direction as I have always wanted to do this in Hong Kong after being told that it was possible a few years back!!
Thanks again.
Tam
I'm still surprised that nobody seems to know about the fantastic fishing we have in Hong Kong. I have been trolling offshore 20-90 miles away and back for over 10 years now and have caught several species of tuna, mahi mahi, rainbow runner, wahoo, baraccuda, amberjack, cobia, longtom, sailfish (once released 4 at the same time) and marlin. I even swam with a whaleshark on one outting.
I have written stories about the fishing which have appeared in Marlin Magazine in the U.S. as well as for local magazines in Chinese and have been in the Apple Daily holding fish. I have also updated fishbase with pictures and information of fish to be found near Hong Kong.
The season runs from around March to end of October with sorties taken outside of those dates when the N.E. monsoon has been quiet for a couple of days.
Hope you find a way to get offshore and experience the great, although relatively small in size, sportfishing available in the South China Sea. Try "googling" hong kong sportfishing.

Would like to learn more about Fishing. I did a bit of light salt water fishing in Hawaii and want to try hong kong. Is there a forum or can you suggest a few sources to join a charter? Or other options to enjoy a relaxing few hours on a boat thanks Al
Charles Frew, who wrote article on offshore and deep sea fishing in Hong Kong, has taken some trips. But currently driving across Russia towards Europe(!)
Today's Sunday Morning Post had article on game fish such as marlin and sailfish caught in or near Hong Kong waters. Sadly, internet version is only for registered users.
Hi Al, I do salt water fishing on a boat regularly in Hong Kong. Interested, drop me an email at davehungpc@hotmail.com Cheers, Dave
