San Cristobal/The Striped Marlin Mecca Of The World

San Cristobal Island has more bank, sea mounts and areas to target the large numbers of striped marlin than anywhere in the Galapagos. If you want to maximize your billfish numbers and shots then this should be the place to fish. North of the island there is a pretty good blue marlin bite and some big black marlin have been caught here as well.  Most guest fish 3 to 5 days and you should too!  Combine your stay with Kicker Rock snorkeling and you are getting some of the very best the island has to offer.

Santa Cruz/Where Ecuagringo Started

1993 Ecuagringo guided the first goat hunts to help cull the feral goat population.  We had heard the incredible stories of lots of billfish but after hunting several of the islands it was time to look into the fishing.  By 1998 our first boat was introduced and anglers began to be treated to some of the best marlin fishing the Pacific had to offer.  0-30 Bank and the waters near Santa Fe Island were loaded with sardines and striped marlin.  There is very good tuna, wahoo and bottom fishing to compliment the striped marlin bite.  You have the giant tortoises and various choices of snorkel tours to add on to your fishing trip.

Isabela Island/Illusions Of Grandeur Produces Grander Marlin Here

In 2019 Isabela Island exploded into the grander marlin seen fishing one boat less than ten days and encountering 5 fish estimated at or over 1000 pounds.  Including a giant thought to be close to the 1500# range fought for 45 minutes by Steven Hurt before his 80# line broke on a rod he brought.  Today we mostly fish 130# tackle because they don’t make 200# tackle for these fish.

If you want a realistic shot at encountering the biggest blue marlin that swim the Pacific Ocean then this is where you need to be.  Most days you are the solitary boat on the water fishing in the company of birds, dolphins, whales, sharks and so much marine life as part of the show.  Fish average 500 to over 1000 pounds here.  Some of the best snorkeling with penguins tours happen right here on Isabela Island.  You can also explore the Sierra Negra volcano crater.
