On the world map of fishing locations, Christmas Island may only rate a small dot, however fish being caught here are making a big mark amongst the international fishing fraternity. The secret is out.........anglers around the world are starting to find out that Christmas Island is the hottest new spot for big fish in South East Asia!

Within a few hundred metres of the boat launching facilities, it is possible to fish in 500 metres of water for Sailfish, Tuna, Wahoo and all the other exciting species that you usually find in tropical locations. The difference is that on Christmas Island the fish are BIG, very BIG!!

When the ocean currents bring the the tuna in, it is possible to see fish in excess of 100kg feeding on the surface. While the
Yellowfin Tuna roam & pass the island quite regularly, Dogtooth Tuna live permanently on the steep drop-offs that surround Christmas Island and weĦŻve seen them up to 80kg landed. Or if you prefer the high flying aerial displays of a sailfish, during the pre-monsoon months some of the biggest Sailfish in the world are to be found at
Christmas Island. Even trolling within a few hundred metres of the shoreline you will find the razor gang.
Wahoo are the fastest
fish in the world and Christmas Island is their favorite race track! Sailfish caught at Christmas Island
