Fishing: In Style!
The last stop in the Caribbean – and one of the last places anglers expect to find world class fishing – Trinidad and Tobago have rapidly moved into the very front rank of sport-fishing destinations.
Anchoring the southern end of the Lesser Antilles, just north of Venezuela off the South American coast, the twin-island nation is a place where unspoiled and unexplored beauty are a reality, not marketing hype.
Long overshadowed by more famous fishing grounds farther north, a few fortunate anglers come to Trinidad and Tobago to experience fishing that's fast, furious and second to none. The moods and movements of two great currents- the Orinoco outflow and the chilly South American current – produce a seasonal rhythm that gives anglers a shot at nine prime species.

Dolphin, Wahoo and tuna are on tap anytime except summer, when tarpon action – which is good year round – kicks into high gear June through September. Kings run in the summer too and sails pick up when the kings depart, showing up in schools from November through April. Over in Tobago, October through April is the prime time for marlin, tuna, Wahoo and dolphin with the best marlin bite coming in January, February, March and April. Permit and bonefish are plentiful year round in Tobago except when the bones take a break in September and October.
