Borneo is fast emerging as a top game fishing destination in Southeast Asia. Indeed, the list of fighting fish available in South China Sea and particularly around Borneo Sabah is as long as the one to be found in the game fisherman's handbook. They include Marines, Sailfish, Tuna, Giant Trivially, King Mackerel, Wahoo, Cobia, Barracuda, Rainbow Runner, Dolphin Fish, Queen Fish and African Pompano.
Two nearby islands are located within the fishing zone, namely Mengalum and Mantanani Island which will act as good shelters for fishing activities Located just inside the Continental Shelf, this area is rich of trolling for pelagic fishes including Black Marlin, Sailfish, Wahoo, Spanish Mackerel, Mahi-mahi, Yellow Fin Tuna, Dog tooth Tuna, Black Kingfish (Cobia), Giant Trevally, Giant Barracuda, etc., and bottom-bashing for Giant Grouper, Red Snapper, Red Emperor, Long- nosed Emperor, Coral Trout, etc., you name them - all the tropical fishes are there. The vast expanses of natural deep reefs, sunken shoals, man-made FADs (read, off-shore oil-rigs and production platforms) and off-shore islands, are there to provide the necessary attractions for a rich and varied marine life.
