Hi mate, i was there 5 year ago. One day i booked onto a charter boat. It was about 40euros for 6 hrs. The sea was too rough to go far out so we fished the reefs close in. I managed a few species, including snapper, mullet, parrotfish and i also got two 7lb moray eels. The boat provided all the bait and tackle. I also took a small rod with me and fished off the shore. I caught bream and mullet. Sweetcorn was by far the best bait.
Yer mate I can claim to have fished there, Corralijo a few years ago. Only fished once but managed to get some small fish off the beach using bread. Got the ferry over to Lobos one day and I can tell you that that pier it leaves from looks like a fishing dream, deep blue water and a few locals chucking off it. Remember thinking I wish I'd brought my beach fishing gear but instead had to settlle with O'Brien's bar and Murphy's. Slurp, Slurp.

twice booked a trip and twice had it called off just before leaving the hotel in the morn, years ago i found you were haunted by vendors and time share muppits giving away cards were you could win a holiday - eff them off its a con, water is abysmal take some lopomide with you just in case and dont even do your teeth with the local water, watch your health insurance, i managed to rip the skin off the ball off my foot, no taxi would take me because i was bleeding, medical care insurance turned out to be pay now claim when we got back the uk, brill they wanted more than the spends we had been advised to take with us for the 2 weeks, hotel reps were a waste of time over it, in the end i superglued it back on, thankfully that was three days before the end of the holiday
stereo typical germans put towels on the sun loungers late each night, took one trip early hours to heave the lot in the pool for it never to happen again

was there in jan and it was grate. i was talking to some local that was riding a Donkey and had a propa tash. he saw me with my fishing rod and said he would tell me were the best fishing spot was on the Island for 10 Euro's. after about a hour and 3 min and with a lot of arm waving and loud talking i got him down to 3 euro's and a singed photo of John Craven off country file i had took with me for luck he told me were it was. first he said take the number 3779 bus from Calle Ctra Los Pozos to Puerto de Lajas and ask for a man they call Chicco not the one from X factor. and when you find him give him two Mars bars one kinder egg and a packet of fishermans friends and in return he will lead you to the place the locals call (La nacho del Deportivo la Coruna 3 Real Sociedad 1 Fernando Torres) i later found out in English it ment the pier. when we got there i asked him what the best bait was and he said if your float fishing it was best to bait up with cubes of Turnip dipped in Reggae Reggae sauce but if i wanted to fish of the bottom to use a Phoenix feather tide to a shoe of a small man. bye this point i began to think he was ripping the **** and it was confirmed when he told me Shola Ameobi was a world class striker. so in the end i just did a bit spinning from the rocks bye the resort witch turned out to be a good days fishing. PM me if you want the bloke on the Donkey with the tash mobile num mate a think he also dose boat trips aswell and has a little bar by the harbour that dose cheap sunday dinners. Hope this was some help
