Many people who see our adds or speak to us for the first time seem rather surprised to find out that there is some great fishing to be had over in Portugal! So many know the country for it's beaches and that is about all, which is a great pity.Very few have had the chance to see what lies beyond the well known Algarve. Untouched by the many tourists who visit the south, the areas where we go fishing, offer our clients a chance not only to fish in almost untouched waters, but also the chance to see the unspoilt areas of Portugal!

But, that is enough about that. It is the fishing that you are after, so let us get on with telling you about it!

To see what you can expect to catch take a look at our Carp Gallery

What there is

In the rivers you can find barbel, a wide variety of carp, pike, nase, tench, lamprey and eels. The reservoirs hold tench (9.2kg), carp (34.5Kg) and large-mouth bass. You stand a good chance of hooking into something BIG! So, some thought should go into planning what sort of angling you will be doing and what sort of tackle to bring along with you.

Where most of the fishing takes place.

Between the region of Lisbon and the Algarve in the south lies the region of Alentejo. This thinly populated region covers a large area of Portugal ñ nearly a third of its total area ñ and is well worth exploring. The scenery is rural and hilly, with olive orchards, cork oak orchards, golden cornfields, and vineyards. The landscape becomes dryer and flatter towards the south. Alentejo has a beautiful rugged coast, with secluded inlets, cliffs, and sand dunes.
