Welcome aboard 'Popeye,' a 32' Cabin Cruiser powered by twin 85 HP Perkins engines. This vessel is fitted with a flybridge, outriggers, and a fighting chair.

The waters of Mauritius are well-known for deep sea hotspots and abundant fishing seasons. While fishing with Capt. Ludovic you are likely to stay along the Mauritian west coast, where the waters are known to host especially large pelagic fish.

Here you can target Marlin, Sailfish, Mahi Mahi, Wahoo, Giant Trevally, and Tuna. You will mainly target your catch by trolling, but you will also have the option to try your hand at jigging and drop-shot fishing. You can also bottom fish for Snapper, Grouper, Needlefish, and more.

Capt. Ludovic offers a variety of trips, including a full-day excursion with fishing, snorkeling, dolphin watching, and an onboard BBQ. The crew will prepare sausage, chicken, or fish, along with salad and dessert. Water, soft drinks, and beer are provided (and rum is available upon request).

Mautiyak Game Fishing provides Penn and Shimano fishing gear, lures, and bait. Fish caught during your trip goes to the crew, but you may request to take one home to enjoy as a meal.

Nice experience
6 Hours Trip (Shared) on June 10, 20261 adult

I had a great trip, with a good boat and a very nice captain. We did not catch any fish, but that is how nature works. Sometimes you are lucky and sometimes not.. I can recommend others to order the same trip!

Unforgettable Fishing Adventure: Great Crew, Expert Captain, and an Epic Experience!
4 Hours Trip (PM) on December 18, 20242 adults

I had the best day out fishing with an incredible crew! Fishing is a lot like hunting, you win some, you lose some, but it's all about the experience, and this trip was truly memorable. Ludovic, our captain, was outstanding. His knowledge and enthusiasm made the entire day enjoyable, even without reeling in a big catch. We really gave it our all, trying everything from different spots to various techniques. The whole experience, from the crew's professionalism to Ludovic's leadership, made it worth every penny. Highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for an unforgettable fishing adventure!

For the last 17 years, the 32' vessel 'Popeye' has been a father-son business, run by Captain Ludovic and his father Eddy. They have been hunting for Marlin and other deep-sea pelagic creatures ever since! The boat's record for Blue Marlin is almost 1,000 lb. You can join Capt. Ludovic for kayak game fishing, as well. We hope to meet you soon!
