Fishing In Tenerife - both the freshwater and deep sea varietyIn Tenerife, there are opportunities for both freshwater fishing inland and deep sea fishing out into the Atlantic Ocean.
Although deep sea fishing seems to have the bigger profile on the island, there is a venue for carp fishing you can go to.  Photo: Lolo770461
The venue consists of a reservoir that is actually used by the vineyard higher up the mountain, but Mike has well stocked it with common, mirror and wild carp. So well stocked is it, that one angler once caught 67 fish during an eight hour session! Its depth varies from 8 feet to 18 feet and it has a clean, snag-free bottom. There is no need for heavy tackle, therefore, though a minimum 10lb line is advised, in case one of the heavier fish comes your way. Because the "Pit" is crammed full of carp and it's really easy to make a catch, it is suitable for beginners and children, as well as experienced anglers. Mike is equipped to accommodate group bookings and night fishing can be arranged, too.
