V Open Internacional Pesca de Altura Gran Canaria 2025

The 5th Gran Canaria Deep Sea Fishing International Open is held between 28-30 August 2025, organised by the Pasito Blanco Puerto Deportivo Yacht Club with the support of Gran Canaria Turismo. This is all about sports fishing.

The event has been running for 36 years since the initial proposal of the traditional fishing competition (the Pasito Blanco Deep Sea Fishing Competition), the embryo of the current model, and a pioneer in the catch-and-release concept. It has been converted into an International Open for five years, anticipates the participation of around 50 vessels, and is in talks to join the World Deep Sea Fishing Championship circuit.

The Pasito Blanco Deep-Sea Fishing Competition was one of the first fishing championships in Europe to embrace the catch-and-release concept, which was established in the Gran Canarian initiative even before the IGFA regulations required it for the international fleet. These values not only remain in force, but have multiplied as an attribute of the identity of Canarian society and are defended by all participants.
