I spent a whole day on the boat with the two of them and really enjoyed it (trolling & casting). Fishing was quite tough (besides a few GT bites we only managed to land one GT and one grouper), but the sea was extremely rough with a lot of wind, which made some spots unfishable and generally more challenging. Of course, that’s nature and nothing the operator can influence. We also didn’t fish in the guide’s home atoll, which added to the difficulty. Nevertheless, they did everything... More

Absolutely amazing day.  Captain was on time for pickup in the morning.  Picked us up at the resort pier.  We didn’t catch any fish in the morning, one hooked but shark got it.  He cut the trip short, letting me know fish activity is low and if it’s ok we can try again in the evening.  We went out again at 4:30 to a local fishing sport for Yellow Fin Tuna and and within a few mins landed two good size fish Tuna!  We all know catching fish is never guaranteed but going out of his way...

I can’t say enough about black pearl sports fishing except to book them. My boyfriend is an avid hunter and fisherman so when we traveled to the Maldives I wanted to plan a special day. Abdulla went above and beyond to make it exceptional. He planned several surprises for us, brought along snacks/drinks and more importantly his expertise in finding our dream fish. Fishing is a sport of luck but having the right team with the knowledge and proper equipment go a long way. Thank you both for making... More

Black pearl was a great experience. Skipper had a great English knowledge of the local area and just got it from the get go. The boat was in immaculate condition a great size. The equipment was all preloaded for what I was targeting, in this case was GT and snapper. Are used several boats over my stay in the Maldives and the Black pearl was the strongest by far, although slightly more expensive than the other two I would happily play this every time to get access to the knowledge and approach...

I’ve contacted Abdullah to try to catch a Marlin in Maldives as this is almost the good season. We went outside for 7 hours and he tried to catch live bait before our fishing trip. I had a really great time on the sea, had a lot of fun doing casting fishing on the reef (caught 6/7 fishes) the we’ve catched a beautiful wahoo with the hand line, a new technique for me! We’ve even visited a sandbar. I would recommend Abu as he does his best to accomodate your request,... More
