Fishing in Koh Chang – Thailand sawadeekohchang.com

 If you like fishing, you will love to be in Thailand, especially in Koh Chang.
Fishing is possible in and around Koh Chang. You can bring your equipment but you can also buy it or even rent it in different places on the island.

There are different locations where you can fish but if you want to catch big ones, the best is to do it on a boat. Because of the national park, you cannot fish everywhere, there are lots of protected areas.
The best is to ask first and be sure you won't get any trouble.

There are also boat companies which are arranging full-day, half-day or night fishing trips and in my opinion, it's the best alternative. First, you won't waste your time finding places where you can fish and second, they supply the equipment as well as the baits and the food.

If you are a bit adventurous you can also try to meet local fishermen and ask them if you can go with them. Be aware some of them do not speak or understand English, they may reply "yes" to all your questions for example if they are coming back in the evening. And you will get the bad surprise to spend the whole night fishing squids. So be sure that everything is clear between them and you before joining them.
