The waters off l\u2019Ametlla de Mar are home to all sorts of predators. Bluefish are around all year round although they\u2019re more prolific from April to November. May and June are the best months to target Leerfish trolling natural bait or casting poppers, stickbait and other top water lures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s3\">Seabass chase baitfish near the bays, the rocks and the coves. A little deeper the Dentex will be patrolling close to the rocky bottom. The best way to fish for Dentex is using jigs or using a life squid on a nylon rig.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_144\" style=\"width: 178px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-144\" class=\"wp-image-144 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomscatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Ametlla-del-Mar-family-fishing-Spain-168x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"168\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tomscatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Ametlla-del-Mar-family-fishing-Spain-168x300.jpeg 168w, https:\/\/www.tomscatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Ametlla-del-Mar-family-fishing-Spain.jpeg 538w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 168px) 100vw, 168px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-144\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Bonito caught in l&#8217;Ametlla de Mar.<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s3\">Bonitos can be caught mainly between April and November. August and September are the best months to target them chumming. The locals drift in waters of around 50m deep and chum sardines to attract them. Bonitos are amazing fighters and weigh between 2 and 5 kg. This time of the year the dorado (mahi-mahi) visit these waters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s3\">L\u2019Ametlla de Mar is very close to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomscatch.com\/fishing-in-ebro-delta\">Ebro Delta<\/a>. Apart from being considered one of the most important wetlands in the Mediterranean Coast, this is a fantastic fishing area. The River Ebro flows into the Mediterranean Sea bringing loads of natural food for sardines, anchovies, mullet etc. The bait fish are the favorite food for Seabass, Bluefish, Leerfish, Amberjack, Bonito, Tuna, Little Tunny or Dentex.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s3\">Big Game Tuna Fishing in l\u2019Ametlla de Mar<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s3\">L\u2019Ametlla de Mar is famous for everything involved with tuna: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomscatch.com\/blog\/tuna-fishing\/\">tuna fishing<\/a>, tuna farming and tuna industry. The beach of Almadraba (<em>Platja Almadraba<\/em>) is proof of its tuna history: the <em>Almadraba<\/em> is an old technique for trapping bluefin tuna with nets close to the shore. This spectacular technique hasn\u2019t been used for a long time in L\u2019Amettla de Mar but it\u2019s still carried out in Southern Spain, Italy, Portugal and Morocco.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s3\">Traditionally the professional fishermen also used to catch the bluefin tuna with hand lines during the month of April and May. They would sail off shore, passed the continental shelf and fish for bluefin tuna chumming with sardines and mackerel. In the afternoon, the fishermen would bring the tuna (as well as massive amberjack and fox shark) and expose them in the intense fish market. In the 80\u2019s you would see 2-3 Japanese buyers among the Catalan fishermen. With a small knife they would cut a piece of raw tuna and taste the fish. According to their findings, they would negotiate the price of the fish and ship it to Japan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s3\">The tuna industry has changed a lot and nowadays, L\u2019Ametlla de Mar has one of the largest Tuna farms of the world. Huge vessels catch the bluefin tuna with nets around the Balearic Islands in May and June. They keep them alive in these nets and troll them back to L\u2019Ametlla de Mar where they\u2019re transferred into giant underwater cages. Here, they\u2019re fattened up with sardines, mackerel, anchovies until they\u2019ve reached the right size. A large portion of these fish will be shipped to Japan and United States.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s3\">Around these giant underwater cages, there\u2019s a stable population of wild tuna living all year round. Giant Bluefin Tuna can be caught chumming sardines around these cages, which are located only 2-3 miles off shore!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s3\">During the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tomscatch.com\/blog\/tuna-fishing\/\">tuna fishing season<\/a>, the fishing charters head to the fishing grounds with 50-70kg of sardines or mackerel for chumming. The hook bait can be a larger mackerel, horse mackerel (dead or alive) rigged on a single hook. The boats drift along the cages fishing with big game fishing gear (80lb Shimano Tiagra, Alutecnos, Avet\u2026). Although most fishing boats feature one or several fighting chairs, stand-up tuna fishing in L\u2019Ametlla de Mar is getting more and more popular.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s3\">Spin fishing or Casting for Bluefin Tuna<\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s3\">In April, May and during the summer months bluefin tuna can be caught on heavy spinning gear. Captains fish on smaller, faster boats that make chasing and keeping up with fleeing tuna possible. Large frenzies appear off l\u2019Ametlla de Mar in waters of 70 &#8211; 90m of depth. Anglers target their tuna, using a variety of jigs, large poppers, stick-bait and other tuna lures.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_137\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-137\" class=\"wp-image-137 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tomscatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/tuna-fishing-barcelona.jpg\" alt=\"Tuna Frenzy in l'Ametlla de Mar\" width=\"1000\" height=\"564\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tomscatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/tuna-fishing-barcelona.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.tomscatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/tuna-fishing-barcelona-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tomscatch.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/tuna-fishing-barcelona-768x433.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-137\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tuna Frenzy in l&#8217;Ametlla de Mar<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s3\"><i>\u201cIt didn\u2019t take us long to spot birds.
