Sailfish
Istiophorus platypterus · Pez vela
Pure spectacle: raised sail, greyhounding jumps and a release photo you will keep forever.
Sailfish share the warm-water calendar with dorado, so August and September trips often produce both. They are lighter than marlin but faster on the jump, and light-tackle anglers love them. As with all billfish, we release.
How we fish it
- Live bait on tailing fish
- Trolling with dredge and teasers
- Catch and release standard
