I'm an avid sportsfisherman and interested to avail of your homestay offer.

How far from the seashore? Are there fishing pumpboat for rent? Are there nearby areas known to be productive for sports fishing? How many sailing hours to the nearest payao? When is the best month to visit?

Thank you and best regards.

Passion in Fishing

Agiv my love for fishing was way back long ago in Bangkerohan bridge, in Viga canal bridge, burwat in Napo and the imburnal going to Viga Hospital. I remember competing with BluForce for the best location along Viga river or dike banks.

Sports fishing is one tourism potential that Catanduanes can offer. It can compete with Siargao; San Vicente, Cagayan; Tubattaha, Palawan or Laiya, San Juan Batangas. Fishing in these areas makes your heart pump like hell with excitement as big game fish fight with all their fury.

10 to 2o nautical miles east of Gigmoto up to Maturin in Pandan Bagamanoc are rows of payaws which abound with tuna, malagui, bigho and dorados. The problem is the distance and risk of fishing there considering the Pacific swell may change in a short time.

Virac banks with its wide coral reef formationused to be a productive fishing ground but the un abated blast fishing, cyanide fishing and Buli buli had reduced the fishing ground to graveyard of dead corals. This is a big challenge to the environmentalist which fortunately CF has in abundance.
Golf?? You can be my guest in Eagle Ridge or in Tagaytay Royale

Fishermen in Gigmoto fishing spot is the location JOM is mentioning. It is no wonder for everytime they banwit there they are always "Gooda" I just hope that i can also go fishing with mb Ondoy at same location. Our fishermen spent two days everytime they have expedition there. Sa Gigmoto ang banwitan ko sana ay iyong tubog noong kaakian pa. Hapa nin pantat at haluan.
Agiv as for your gulp invitation pwede man seguro ako sumabit at kawat na sana kita ng holen sa laguerta ang problema baad bugawon kita nin guardia ta baad mabuyong kita at ireklamo nin kanatad pero kung mahiling nato si JOM sitsitan na sana nato na dai na maggolf at magulp-gulp na sana kita sa higad nin mataas na highway.

Tama ka tabi Ilaya. Dyan ga punta parabanwit nin bangkulis turingan bigho. Most of the time, more than hundered kilos an nadadakop kada paglawod.

Nagbanwit ako dyan pero after 4 hours nagparibod na kami tibaad magubgub yung pumpboat sa dakor nin dakop. Nag hapdos habayan ko pati mina init yung akong Penn 6/0 drum type trolling reel.

Every May, there is a group of Hawaii based bicolano na ga dayo sa payaw east of Gigmoto. Pirming ikan dakop na bigho na more than 100kgs a piece.

Sado pang dapat ma discover sa ato yung Dive Site for scuba and snorkling. This dive site must be declared a marine sanctuary para mabigyan nin proteksyun. Scuba diving and snorkling has a big market among local and foreign tourist.
