This original type of local fishing has the enthused participants from all parts of Europe. The competition takes place in an area of artificial reefs where an abundance of fish is guaranteed. The types of fishing permitted are line fishing under the cliffs and trolling with live bait in the area of the reef.
Over 20 species of fish are accepted in the competition, including jacks, snapper, Sarge, Herrera, grouper, sea bream, mojarra, forkbeard, bass, mackerel etc..
Because of environmental concerns each participant will be limited to a catch of 10 pieces per species.
Prizes include trophies, wilderness tsunami kayaks, wilderness kayak fishing gear and gifts to all those registered.
The registration fee is 20 euros.
Previous competitions have attracted more than fifty boats. The uniqueness of the activity and the natural beauty of the surroundings in which it is held, promise a very interesting and day for those who love fishing and sailing canoes.
