Sailfish and Marlin in the Andaman Sea

The open waters of the Andaman Sea hold sailfish and marlin, offering anglers the chance to add billfish to their Andaman adventure.

Where to Find Billfish

Billfish follow bait along current lines, colour changes and offshore edges, particularly around remote banks and outer islands.

Techniques

Trolling skirted lures and teasers is the classic approach. When fish are seen, pitching a bait or lure can trigger a strike.

Season

Billfish activity varies and is often linked to bait movements. Combine trolling with other techniques on offshore days.

Catch and Release

All billfish are released. Careful handling keeps them healthy for release.
