Active Lure Fishing
Jigging and Popping & Topwater: cast, jig and work the lure for direct takes and hard fights.
Satara FishingMorocco
For experienced saltwater anglers
We put you on the fish. You run the fight.
A private fishing charter run by anglers — a clear plan, precise boat work and no tourist routine.
Satara fishes four grounds between Rabat, Bouznika and the Strait of Gibraltar. Weather, tide, current and fish activity decide the mark and method — never a rigid species programme.
The programme runs from active lure fishing with Speed Jigging and Popping & Topwater, through technical coastal fishing for meagre and sea bass, to Slow Jigging on structure and Billfishing by Bait-and-Switch. We position the boat; you cast, jig, work the lure and fight the fish.
Tackle — bring your own setup, or use ours. Charter rates cover the boat, crew and fuel; tackle is quoted separately. Popping, Speed Jigging, Slow Jigging and Billfishing Bait-and-Switch outfits are available aboard.
Fishing styles & techniques
Four programmes. Clear methods.
The permanent offer is organised by how we fish. Targets and seasons show what is realistically available on each ground.
Action & offshore
Big Game & Billfishing
Bluefin as a separate seasonal programme; billfish exclusively by Bait-and-Switch with hookless teasers.
Coast & structure
Technical Coastal Fishing
Meagre and sea bass on sand edges, whitewater and structure, using soft lures, live bait and Slow Jigging.
Spinning
Soft plastics, minnows and casting jigs presented tight to structure, whitewater and feeding fish.
Learn moreLive bait
Livewell baits drifted or presented directly on meagre, dentex and bluefin marks.
Learn moreCoastal trolling
Diving minnows pulled along the coast — bluefish, leerfish and bass on the hunt.
Learn more
Reef & Vertical Fishing
Slow Jigging over rock, ledges and wrecks for dentex, grouper and other structure predators.
Weather, tide, current and fish activity decide the day’s programme. The crew adjusts the mark, drift and presentation.
