Try trolling, one of the most common methods in these waters. Large predatory fish like marlin, sailfish, and tuna are often caught this way by trailing lures or bait behind the moving boat. You may also fish closer to the reef systems near the island, targeting species like snapper, grouper, and other reef dwellers.
