The Rodfather Tenerife Fishing
Welcome
We love what we do and we fish at a tournament style pace during every single trip. We run the boat hard, fish hard, and work hard. All while maintaining a positive and friendly atmosphere, teaching you and giving you all the information along the way, making you be part of our Rodfather family and crew. Our reputation means everything and we are dedicated to showing every group how exciting sport fishing can really be. We punch it to where we need to go and use whatever techniques necessary to put you on the fish
We have fine tuned every technique and mixed top of the line equipment with an experienced multilingual crew. This allows us to catch fish by doing what’s necessary, not convenient.
Don’t let our tournament style approach intimidate you, we also like to fish with light tackle and make the most elusive gamefish a reasonable target for even the most inexperienced anglers. Your safety, comfort, and enjoyment are our only priorities
Proof of our hard work and reputation is that we have won the 2026 Offshore World Championship 2026 as well as several national championships. We are also proud to be the only charter company in the Canary Islands sponsored by some of the world’s leading fishing and yachting brands, such as Simrad, Mustad and Höwk.
This means you will always find the latest and best electronics, tackle and gear on board our boats.
We are located on the SW side of Tenerife, one of the best fishing grounds on the island and also one of the most spectacular landscapes in Tenerife.
There are less expensive charters online but you won’t find a more experienced crew, well kept boats, positive atmosphere and our unmatched customer service.
‘This is an offer you can’t refuse ‘
All of our crew members speak fluent English, German, French and Italian

Such Magestic creatures. This is the most powerful fish you can catch in the ocean. They can weigh over 1000lbs and the average size here in the Tenerife is about 700Lb at the moment. Although the fish didnt come in record nymbers, we are doing really good releasing at least one or more of these beauties every single day.
Tenerife = Tuna Paradise 🔥

Epic day with the guys from @abyssfishing Croatia 🇭🇷 fishing for amberjacks and snappers . Catch and release 😉💪🏽
Having the best electronics on board is a must, we went to some unexplored grounds and found a lot of quality fish and fishing spots. The accuracy of our depth sounder and c-map is just amazing. Definitely the key to our successful adventure.
We had the opportunity to Test the @howkfishing Hot Spot 300 and The Special One L and fell in love with them. A Flawless finish on a flexible but powerful blank with enough backbone to get the job done with ease.

Every year is different here, last year we had a crazy amount of big Bigeye tunas and this year mostly big yellowfins, they are not easy to catch but we can’t complain about our results 🔥😜💯💙

250LB on 0.2mm braided line 🤪🔥
Same story but this time on purpose on a bigger fish 😅
Yellowfins are really tricky and hard to get on decent leaders and lines.
We assumed the risk and made it happen 💪🏽😜
This time it took us 2 hours to land it 👌
It would have been impossible to find this fish without our @simradyachting NSSO3s fish finder 🤩
Same tackle:
Rod: Höwk Special one XL
Reel: Saragosa18K
Hook: 0/4 Mustad
0.2 line 0.7 leader

190Lb YFT on 0.2mm line!! 😅🔥
This beauty was feeding around our boat for 1 hour but he didn’t take the bait on the heavier tackle.
We saw some albacore tunas coming up on our fish finder and decided to use some light tackle to have some fun with them.
And indeed we had some fun 😅
It took us 2.5H to get him up.
Rod: @howkfishing Special One XL
Reel: Saragosa 18k

380Lb Bigeye! 🔥Pretty close to the all tackle world record! 🤏🏽😱😜
We made an Offshore Grand Slam with Yellowfin Tunas, Albacore tunas and this PB Bigeye on the same day 💪🏽💯
That last minute bite that you don’t expect after a good day of fishing, when you are already getting the lines in in the dark…
And of course you do get the biggest fish on the smallest rod of the setup 😅
This time on the @howkfishing Invictus and a 30 Lb reel, we got almost spooled by this fat guy but we managed to land him after 2:30h. Unpredictable moves and a really tough fight.
Congratulations to Steven Thomson who kept pumping and winding in a big swell in the dark to get his new PB 💪🏽💯
Measurements:
207cm Long

Mirar para estas pantallas es como estar viendo una película de suspense. 🎬🐟🎣😯
No puedo estar más contento con estos equipos, ver con tanta nitidez que tipo de pescado es y como se comporta ante nuestros reclamos es crucial a la hora de elegir el puesto y el tipo de señuelo a utilizar para obtener los mejores resultados.
En este caso estamos usando un chirp alto y nos sobra potencia para ver con detalle lo que ocurre a 90m de profundidad.
@simradyachting
Y la caña que nos gusta usar en estos casos es la Höwk special One X, diversión asegurada 😜

Interesting stuff you can find in a wahoo belly. This time we found a herring with a circle hook, a big flying fish and a pretty common parasite that lives in the stomach of the wahoos.

I love to catch small tunas on light tackle. 🤪💯💪
Two days ago we caught our first 5 Albacore Tunas of the season and we got spooled by an unexpected big yellowfin.

Quick morning trip from yesterday 😉🤙
On the SIMRAD NSSEVO3s 16" you can clearly see a massive school of Amberjacks and some yellowfin tunas eating our chum on the top.
