At Yap Anglers, we offer fly-fishing,
whipping and trolling. Fly-fishing is new
and exciting but you have to enjoy the quiet serenity of the calm mangrove areas
as well as the esthetic beauty of the perfect cast. Whipping is exciting, especially
when a 30+ pound Giant Trevelly attacks your lure. No doubt about it, each of
these types of fishing are exciting and rewarding. But nothing compares to sitting comfortably in the shade of our custom boats, drinking a cold beverage and chatting with friends and then the whine. That distinctive scream of the big Penn International reels as something has come up from the deep attracted by the big colorful lure. Everyone on the boat jumps at once and then the rod is removed from its holder and you are attached to an unknown fish by 80-pound test line. The suspense of what kind of fish is on the line and how large it is dominates the discussion.
Big game trolling in the deep blue waters off the coast of Yap is one of the specialties at Yap Anglers. Several of our staff, led by Bill Acker himself, are dedicated fishermen and will be happy to assist you should you choose to spend an afternoon or a week going after the big one. Yellowfin Tuna, Wahoo, Baracuda, Mahi Mahi and of course Pacific Blue Marlin all abound in the deep waters off Yap.
