Hi Everyone !!! I wanted to take a moment and tell you about our recent fishing charter in Punta Cana. The deep-sea fishing that we do with Big Marlin Charters is not hard at all. It is easy, fun and spectacularly beautiful. It is very safe & female friendly. So, if you have any concerns as a woman that you could not handle what is needed to...

What you can expect to catch: September is (also) a good month for fishing in the Dominican Republic. Dorados and Wahoo are starting to run again; although they are here all year round in smaller numbers September to May is their season. The Blue Marlins are still around and the season for catching the Blue […]

The Dorado also known as Mahi-Mahi or Common Dolphin Fish is one of the typical fish you can expect to catch on a deep sea fishing trip in the Dominican Republic. There are 2 types of Dolphin Fish; the Common Dolphin Fish and The Pompano Dolphin Fish – neither of which are related to the mammal […]

Anders Bogebjerg owner of Palmera Fishing recently sat down and answered a few questions about fishing. Anders started fishing at the age of 4 and is today an avid fisherman. He rarely goes a week without fishing and usually heads out for some inshore fishing or deep sea fishing every chance he gets – with […]

Barracudas are some of the common fish that you can catch pretty much year round when you go fishing in the Dominican Republic. These are great fish to catch as they put up a really good fight which may include jumping out of the water; especially if you get the Barracuda on light tackle. If you […]

Thunnus Albacares or Yellowfin Tuna is one of the coolest fish to catch in my opinion. They’re unbelievably strong put up a great fight and are exceptionally delicious to eat – both raw as sushi or sashimi or slightly grilled/seared. General description: After doing a bit of research online we discovered that the Yellowfin Tuna […]

We asked a few random questions about fishing in the Dominican Republic to Capt. Anders Bogebjerg.

Question: Are there any spots in the ocean where you have better chances of catching fish? Answer: Yes […]
