Welcome to PSC Fishing!

Game fishing in Pattaya has always provided anglers with a challenging experience. However, Pattaya, Thailand, most well known for its nightlife entertainment, is little known for it's incredible Game Fishing Sport. Quite simply, nobody knows about this due to the lack of promoting this sport in Pattaya. There as been very little done in terms of advertising this exciting haven for anglers around the world.

There are several reputable Thai fishing captains and a half dozen qualified professional fishing guides. Most of the guides will provide rods, reels, tackle, and bait. However, your are more than welcome to bring your own gear should you desire to do so. You will most likely be able to arrange to go fishing with these professional guides any day of the week. The boat costs are paid for by the fishermen. Most boats leave around 8:00 a.m. or as agreed, and return at approximately 6:00 p.m. There are overnight fishing trips available. This is good for catching larger fish.

Almost all of the charters are on board traditional Thai fishing boats, ranging up to 18 meters in length, providing the customer not only with good fishing, but also a bit of historic Thai culture. The waters are calm enough for all to enjoy, the Pattaya Gulf is sheltered and thus not subject to the large swells and rough seas known to most deep-sea fishermen. A browse through the photographs will show the size and variety of fish that can be landed in local waters. Worthy sized sharks, skates, rays, sailfish, barracuda, and cobia, are a few of the many varieties abundant in the waters in the gulf. Recently, a 120 kg Eagle Ray and a 50 kg Sailfish was landed!

The Pattaya Sports Club can help you arrange a deep sea fishing excursion.
