unfortunately no fish. only one boat out of 20+ boats got a marlin. its fishing, not catching but will use them again if im in Mauritius
Crew was nice but we got a strange feeling there. We had 3 small fishes in 6h. We would have appreciate to know before we booked that the season was bad for fishing. Such a waist of money and strange feeling that we came here just to give them some cash. No real exchange, basic, and you need to negociate to get a small piece of fish at the end… Not the kind of service we were expecting for.
great day at sea , crew couldn't do enough for you. targeted sharks unfortunately no success. 3 lovely yellow fins and a bag full of bonitos
Thanks, we are happy for you!
Great day, great fishing, great team. We can't catch marlin, but catch really good tuna. Very fun trip!
I would highly recommend fishing with Captaim JP and his crew. Very knowledgeable and keen to make sure you catch. We had a great day
