Albufiera Algarve Portugal - Info??

hi guys, heading here in late july, just wondering what the shore fishing is like, what tackle, baits, permits if required etc is like.
also if any decent boat fishing to be had as well.
all info appreciatted

Hi phil

I have been over there alot and went fishing from portimao a couple of times it wasn't great.
Got a few small bllue sharks but had to wait an eternity for run. It's better to go bait fishing rather
than shark fishing I think much more action. I would say go for a good charter the ones I wnet on where about
90 euro for the day. Higher price might be a better option or maybe night fishing.
If your fishing from the shore be very careful here as you need a licence and I believe the fines are heavy
so make sure you have one. Plenty of rock marks obviously and i think I heard there was bass there. I seen lots fishing
from the shore but never seen a fish caught.
Thats all I really know hope it helps a bit.

A friend of mine saw some nice bass being landed on local beaches there last year in March. The bait used was cockles.
There are charter boats in Villamoura but I have been told that the fishing is not great.

loads of mullet in the harbour,been on shark charters 6 times ,or should i say mackeral charters,bass are there from december till april,some years fishing for albies can be good
