For those of you who want to catch more and bigger fish, or just want to spend an extra day or two fishing for this powerful sea predator, we decided to offer you a multi-day experience.

In the Adriatic Sea, the population of Bluefin tuna is growing and with only a few people licensed to fish it, one of them being our guide Robert, Big Game Fishing has a bright future. Supplying tuna for a few restaurants, his main goal every time he sails from the harbour is to catch and deliver. That’s why you can be sure he will do anything to catch as many as possible, and you, being members of his crew while on the boat, will work with him, catching those big predators.

You start your fishing trip early in the morning and spend the day fishing on various spots where fish are located. Your guide will provide food and drinks, everything will be prepared right there on the boat as he is also a professional chef.

In the evening of your first or second day you will be given two options, depending on the situation, either to sleep on a boat and try night fishing for tuna or spend the night in an apartment and repeat the experience from the first day. You will finish your trip in the evening of the third day, with a few big tunas on your boat.

Fish

Tuna is a saltwater predator. There are 15 types of Tuna, ranging in size from 50 cm to 4.6 m and weighing up to 684 kg (bluefin Tuna). It’s one of the few species that can maintain their body temperature higher than that of the water they swim in. Their hydrodynamic bodies make Tuna enviably fast. Tuna found in the Adriatic Sea can weigh from 30 to 200 kg or more.

Dentex is a saltwater fish that belongs to the Sparidea family. It has a laterally compressed body, a high back and a metallic shine. It grows up to one metre in length and can weigh up to 15 kg. Dentex can be found in the Mediterranean, Adriatic and the Atlantic Ocean, up to a depth of 200 m. It’s fished mainly in August and September.

This predatory fish can grow up to 450 cm in length and weigh up to 680 kg. It has a hydrodynamic, slender and elongated body that ends in a very strong tail. It’s one of the fastest fish, reaching speeds of up to 100 km/h. Its back is dark blue and brown and its belly is silver or light grey in colour. The Swordfish is characterised by a small head with large eyes that can see exceptionally well in the dark. Its long and flat beak is an extended upper jaw. Swordfish live in pairs or small schools and are found almost everywhere. Their main natural habitat can be found in the Mediterranean along the coastlines of Sicily and Malta, while in the Atlantic they are present mainly near South America and Africa, with fewer numbers swimming off the US coast. Most Swordfish close to Slovenia are found in the southern and central Adriatic, and tend to dwell at greater depths.

Robert

My story began in 1976 as a young fisherman’s son. We spent all summers on the coast and curiosity led me to explore Croatian islands lengthwise and crosswise. During my 35 years of experience, the sea has become my second home and I often consider it as my first home as well. At the moment, I’m practicing top-level fishing: Big Game Fishing. My other love is cooking and culinary has been my core business over the past 20 years.
With my knowledge of food science, nutrition and dietary knowledge, I opened restaurants in Slovenia as well as catering services all over Europe.
