The Bonthe Holiday Village in Serra Leone offers great opportunities for big game fishing. Bonthe is a remote, attractive, old town on a large island off southern Sierra Leone. In colonial times it used to be a major trading centre for piassava and other agricultural products. Besides fishing and excellent opportunities for bird watching, this is a town with a lot of character.Record fish have been caught with live bait in the estuary, but there is also the possibility of fly fishing in the tarpon breeding grounds. Other fishing (trolling for barracuda, grouper, jack, etc) is available all the year round.
In Cote D'Ivoire
Ivory Coast boasts some of the best blue marlin fishing in the eastern Atlantic, especially during the two peak seasons of November/ December (descending migration) and March/April (ascending migration). It is one of the few spots where one can rely on two distinct annual blue marlin migrations, but depending on a combination of such factors such as wind, current, and water temperature changes both migrations could be year-round events.
