Fishing in Asturias

One of the most popular Fishing techniques is bottom fishing. Fishing on rocks and wrecks with natural bait (cuttlefish, sardine, worm, etc) to catch bream, bream, pinto, maragotas, sea bass, horse mackerel, etc.. Coastal trolling can also be practiced with 20-30lb equipment. This Fishing takes place in areas near the coast between 15 and 50m deep. Here you can catch bonito, mackerel, pollack or sea bass with small lures. In deeper waters trolling with bigger lures you can catch bluefin tuna. These predators are usually quite far from the coast (30-50 miles from the coast). Fishing for sharks can also be practiced offshore. Drifting is used to attract sharks such as blue sharks.

Fishing in Asturias requires a fishing license. Remember that Fishing charters usually already have a collective fishing license so you do not need to buy one if you are going to hire a Boat.
