Browse guided jack crevalle fishing trips and charters worldwide on Reelzy. Jack crevalle are bullish, deep-bodied jacks that hunt in packs and never give up. One of our boats lists them, in Malta, and it does not treat them as the main event.

Updated

Crevalle belong to the warm Atlantic, along beaches, harbours, river mouths and inshore reefs. A school will push bait to the surface and tear into it, and a hooked fish turns its broad flank against you and circles under the boat long after you think it should be beaten. They are poor eating, with dark, strong flesh, and most anglers let them go.

In Malta, Aquaholic Fishing Charter sails from St. Paul's Bay on Laguna II with Captain Paul, a commercial fisherman who asks for your wish list and tells you straight what to expect. Trips run 4 to 8 hours from 9 am for up to 12, inshore, offshore, on the reefs and over wrecks. Crevalle reach the Mediterranean only now and then, so here a jack is a fish you might meet rather than one to plan for. Tell Captain Paul what you hope to catch and let him build the day around what is there.
