About Salty Rods Okinawa
Salty Rods Okinawa is a long-running fishing charter service with over a decade of experience on Okinawa's waters. The company offers offshore deep-sea trips, trolling expeditions, and inshore reef-fishing charters, targeting a year-round rotation of species that includes yellowfin tuna, giant trevally, wahoo, sailfish, mahi-mahi, and a variety of tropical reef fish.
Charters are available in half-day and full-day formats, with the option to book a private boat or join a shared trip. All rods, reels, tackle, bait, and safety gear are supplied, and the experienced crew handles everything from knot-tying to fish filleting at the end of the day. Their boats are equipped with fish finders, GPS, and live-bait tanks to maximise catch rates. English-language support is available, making them a strong choice for international visitors.
Salty Rods has earned a solid reputation among both the local expat community and visiting anglers for consistent catches and a no-nonsense approach to putting people on fish. Their captains know the seasonal migration patterns around the Okinawa shelf and adjust target species and techniques accordingly, so whether you visit in summer or winter there is always something worth chasing.
