Amberjack fishing off the island of Zirjie (near Sibenik)

Fishing on Amberjack is considered a fine art even among die-hard big gamers, because even if you have a good spot, you still have to use a lot of cunning and guile to get the fish to bite — and that takes some experience. Offshore the island of Zirjie, these two conditions come together in an ideal way. Zirjie is located in the immediate proximity of the well-known Kornati archipelago – from the mainland you can take a boat from Sibenik for a 1-1.5 hour passage.

Fishing adventure CROATIA – ZIRJIE

Fishing for amberjack here means winter fishing adventure CROATIA – ZIRJIE. In the period from mid-December to mid-March, the chances of hooking a capital amberjack are the best. Kpt. Damir with his “Tuna Bird” is one of 2 skippers who specialise in amberjack fishing. The fishing is mostly with live squid, trolled very slowly – and far behind the boat. If the conditions are right, this is an almost certain method.

Particularly impressive is the average size of the “AJs”, which is around 20-25 kg. Smaller fish than 15 kg are hardly ever caught, but there is still plenty of room for improvement: skipper Damir has already been able to put fish over 50 kg on the deck.

Tuna Bird (Skipper Damir)

8 metres long, 2.80 metres wide and very massive (3.5 tonnes), which makes for very good seagoing performance.

On board there is a toilet, radar, depth sounder, and an additional Minn Kota motor for extremely slow towing over wrecks.
