Below: the trip, prices, how the fishing works, what's included, all the info, and the policy.
A Real Fishing Trip, Not a Luxury Cruise
Let us be honest from the start: this is a fishing trip, and the crew are fishermen first. It is not a polished sightseeing cruise with waiter service. You go out on the Atlantic, learn how the fishing works, enjoy hours on the water, and maybe land something impressive. That mix of real fishing and a relaxed, social boat is exactly what makes it fun.
Who It's For
It is a great day for beginners, families and regular fishers. You do not need any experience: the crew help with the rods and show you what to do. Kids are welcome with a parent, and it is a fun way for a family to try fishing together. If you love the ocean and a bit of patience does not scare you, you will enjoy it.
Family friendly. A young guest with a catch, this trip works for families and first-timers, not only serious anglers.
The Fishing: Trolling and Bottom Fishing
Depending on the day and the sea, the crew choose the method. Trolling means towing lures behind the moving boat to target bigger fish like tuna or marlin. Bottom fishing means dropping lines for smaller species such as bream or rays. The captain decides the method, the route and how each catch is handled, because they know where the fish are and what is working that day.
Rods, Reels and the Strike
All the rods, reels and bait are on board and ready. When a big fish hits the line, everyone feels it, and the crew are right there to help you bring it in. That moment, the strike and the fight, is what people remember most, whether the fish comes aboard or is released.
The strike. Rods ready and a strong fish on the line, the crew help you bring it in.
Going for the Big Ones
On a good day the crew can target real big game, and Gran Canaria has form for tuna and marlin offshore. But here is the honest part: big fish are never guaranteed. Catches depend on the season, the sea, the conditions and luck. Some days are quiet, some days are special, and no honest crew can promise which one you will get.
The dream day. Big game is possible from Puerto Rico, but never promised, it depends on the day and the sea.
The Shared Boat Vibe
Because it is shared, you are on board with up to 12 people, often from different countries, and that social mix is part of the fun. You cheer each other's catches and swap stories on the way back. If you would rather have the boat to just your own group, the private charter is the way to go.
Shared and social. Up to 12 guests share the boat, cheering each other on, the shared trip is about the moment, not just taking fish home.

Club Canary's Honest Take
Real talk from your local team in the Canary Islands
Straight up: this is real fishing, and we love it for that. Six hours on the Atlantic, proper rods, a crew who actually fish, and a social boat where strangers become a team cheering the next strike. First-timers and families are genuinely welcome, not just tolerated.
The honest bit: nobody can promise you a marlin, or any fish at all. Some days the sea gives, some days it does not, and that is fishing. Come for the day out, the ocean and the chance at something strong, and the catches become a bonus. If you want the whole boat to yourselves, take the private charter.
For a real, honest day of fishing in Gran Canaria, the shared trip is an easy yes.
