The Maldives are considered one of the world’s best fly-fishing destinations, and it is well known that anglers who like to fish in shallow water will have a great time here. For instance, the Maldives are known for their flats and reefs. The islands have numerous flats which hold bluefin trevally, triggerfish, giant trevally, and bonefish. The flats are lush with vegetation that attracts baitfish such as sardines or mullet which feed on small crustaceans found in shallow waters. These fish provide an excellent food source for predators such as snapper or barracuda which may be encountered while fishing this type of habitat.
You can enjoy a combination of flats and reef fly-fishing accessing miles of some of the best fly-fishing habitat for bluefin Trevally, triggerfish, giant Trevally, the occasional bonefish in the Maldives.
The reefs are equally as productive with plenty of structure and coral heads to attract species such as Bluefin Tuna, Giant Trevally (GT) and Triggerfish (TG).
There’s a window of opportunity for fly-fishing targeting a few species during both high and low tide. We primarily target Giant Trevally, Bluefin Trevally, Triggerfish, and other species along the reefs and flats that surround the islands.
