croatie_tuna-2Europeans new destination of Big Game Fishing is Jezera. The village is located about 90 km north – west of Split on peninsula Murter. Between May and November we go for Red Tuna, up to 400 kg, Swordfish, Thresher Shark, Amberjack, Albacore and Palamidas. The first fishing area is Kornati which takes about 30 minutes to reach.

After this island group we have open sea till Italy. On two day turns we are going fishing near an island which is 45 miles away and uninhabited. Out there we have 200 meters depth. At day light we fish  Tuna and night we fish Swordfish and Sharks. The weight of Swordfish comes up to 90 kg, Thresher Sharks come up to 150 kg and Blue Sharks are over 100 kg.
