Trip Info & Insights
Deep dropping baits 600m down for monsters of the deep. A truly unique way of fishing. Reels with electric assists are used, however there is still a manual handle for you to also crank on the fish. With this way of fishing, it is all about feeling the line with your fingers to try to understand what is going on in the depth 600m below. A fascinating experience in a truly one-of-a-kind setting in Aqaba.
Gear: Provided by the charter
