KUALA ROMPIN
This quaint little town in the state of Pahang lies just north of the Endau River on the East Coast of the Malaysian peninsula. All the basic amenities can be found in Rompin. There is a supermarket serving the local community selling most sundries along with a daily market. There are also quite a few shops selling other general items.
THE FISH
Whilst we specialise in fishing trips to Kuala Rompin with Sailfish being the primary target, the odd juvenile Black Marlin has been known to strike our baits, lures and flies.
By-catch includes Spanish Mackerel, Cobia, Queenfish, Barracuda and a mix of Trevallies. Although not large in sizes, the Mahi Mahis are around from May till August and can be prolific at times.
All Billfish are strictly Catch and Release only. All other species of acceptable size belong to the angler who can decide to keep one for the dinner table or release them. Should you want to bring some fish home, we are happy to process and pack it for you.
THE SEASON
Fishing season starts around mid March and ends in mid November with the arrival of the North-East monsoon.
THE FLEET
The boats are locally built fibreglass hulls powered by twin, well-maintained, four stroke engines. They are equipped with a live bait well, GPS, fish finder and all the necessary safety equipment.
