It was a few
years back that I moved to the Philippines. Being an avid sport
angler for more than three decades. I was excited to see how the
fishing in the Philippines, specifically Cebu, would be. Like
the typical tourist, we went to the local pier and inquired
about fishing. All the boatmen claimed to know where the fish
were and how to catch them. We accepted one offer from a boat
owner to use his services for 4-hours at a whopping P6,000. We
soon come to find out the gentleman had absolutely no clue of
where the fish were. Much less, could offer no recommendations
on how we should set up our gear.
The next
attempt, we decided to increase our odds of having a successful
catch and chartered with what was considered a professional out
fit for half a days woth of sport angling. We ended up spending
more than P30,000 on fuel and the boat rental and was guided by
a boat captain who really wasn't that experienced (a year later
we found out the gentleman to really be a cook who just happened
to be available). We caught a 50 gram fish that wasn't worth
more than bait. Food and snacks were included but no fishing
gear.
It took a whole
year for us to eventually speak to the right people and learn of
the proper techniques and where to fish. With many a successful
fishing trips in the Visayas we started planning. We've come to
learn that fishing in the Philippines is very technical, which
was very exciting to me. We've come to learn about the habitat
of the fish and the areas they breed and migrate through.
We've also come
to learn that many people visiting the Philippines had the exact
same result I encountered the first year I lived here. You spend
thousands of dollars and catch practically nothing.
This is where we
made it our mission, no longer will be the days that visitors to
the Philippines will get taken for their time and money. We
partnered up with value oriented resorts, boat owners, fishing
guides and tackle shops in order to bring that value to our
patrons. Granted, a catch is never guaranteed, but should you
decide to choose Cebu Sport Fishing, we'll get you set straight
with the local professionals that will do all they can to make
sure you have an exciting time sport fishing.

About Cebu
Often called the "Queen City of the South" and the Seat of
Christianity in the Philippines, Cebu is the country's oldest
city. Exploring Cebu City, one encounters a rich historic past.
Cebuanos are extremely proud of their cultural and historical
heritage, a legacy which has endured thru the centuries from the
time the great explorer Ferdinand Magellan first planted the
cross on Cebu's shore.
Time has been
kind to Cebu. From Zubu, the fishing village and busy trading
port in 1521 has evolved a highly urbanized metropolitan center
which now serves as focal point of growth and development in
Southern Philippines. With its five cities; Cebu, Danao,
Lapulapu Mandaue and Toledo; and its 48 smaller towns, Cebu. has
more than kept pace with the nation's progress. Today ' the
island province leads in traditional and non-traditional exports
and has the highest economic growth rate anywhere in the
country. Likewise, recent indications pointed out that Cebu has
become the country's most favorite tourist destination.
In contrast to
the bustling metropolis, the rest of Cebu's 167 islets and
islands are lined with idyllic white sandy beaches and pristine
clear waters. Cebu. has gained wide popularity for its fantastic
diving grounds evidenced by the proliferation of resorts which
offer luxurious accommodations, excellent dive facilities and
the services of competent dive masters and dive guides.
Cebu's strategic
location makes it ideal for those who wish to travel to the
other islands and provinces. By plane, boat or bus, nowhere
could be too far from CEBU.
