Koh Similan is a group of 9 small islands, lying approximately 100 km northwest of Phuket. It is not untouched anymore, yet still a very remote and isolated area. You can spend a week out there without encountering anybody.
Off Koh Similan is a good fishing spot. Its water is very shallow and abounds in trevallies. We have been targetting giant trevally for the last couple of years and our record is about 35kg. In each trip (4-5 days) one party (2 -3 persons) catches and releases about 20 - 40 trevallies. Casting a heavy (100 - 150g) topwater lure and reeling it in at your top speed all day is not an easy job. But it's such an exciting game. Once you see a huge trevally chase and strike your lure, you may have found yourself becoming a compulsive saltwater lure fisherman !
We also do marlin and billfish fishing by popper casting and metal lure jigging. We update the record after each trip.
