Fishing as a sport in the Mentawais is still in its infancy though indications of its potential can seen in the types of fish caught by surf charter operators over the last few years. These fish include the common pelagics such as Spanish Mackerel, Tuna, Wahoo and Barracuda. More exotic species including Sailfish and Marlin have been caught recently trolling in the Sipora channel adjacent to Aloita Resort. Other fish commonly caught close by include Golden Trevally and Coral Trout. The zone around ' Setan Island ' which lies in front of the resort is possibly the most abundant fishing ground in the Mentawais. Aloita Resort has available some trolling rigs for guests use. Of course you are more than welcome to bring your own gear. Spearfishing is allowed only for free divers in limited areas . The Mentawais has been featured as a spearfishing destination on several Hawaiian dive magazine articles. We always aim to implement a 'catch what we eat' policy and we are more than happy to have our chef prepare your catch cooked in the style you like.
