Navigo Libertas – Marlin Pula 

We had an amazing experience with Captain Kristijan and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great fishing trip. Our original fishing trip with another captain was cancelled the day before because of strong winds and rough sea conditions, so we had to look for a replacement at the last minute. We contacted several other captains, but some were already booked and others didn’t respond. Kristijan replied immediately and offered to take us out for a 4-hour fishing trip. That quick and helpful response already made a great first impression and it only got better throughout the entire trip. Kristijan came well prepared with a great variety of baits and patiently explained how and when to use each one. He was constantly helping all of us, changing baits, explaining different fishing techniques, and telling us about the types of fish we were targeting. You could really see that he knows his stuff and genuinely enjoys sharing his knowledge. He also prepared drinks for us, which was especially appreciated on such a hot day. Everything was relaxed, friendly, and well organized. Unfortunately, we didn’t catch any fish but that was simply because the fish were not biting that day, and obviously that is something no captain can control. Despite that, we left the boat completely satisfied. We met a great person, learned a lot, and spent a fantastic day out on the water. A big thank you to Captain Kristijan for making the trip such a great experience, even on a day when the fish decided not to cooperate. Highly recommended!

Wir waren mit drei Erwachsenen und mit zwei Kindern (12/13) zu Gast bei Kristijan auf dem Boot. Mit Kristijan hatten wir einen super Angelausflug. Kristijan ist ein sehr netter, offener und hilfsbereiter Mensch. Sogar nach dem Angelausflug konnte er uns noch bei privaten Angelegenheiten weiter helfen. Die Bedingungen beim angeln waren etwas schwierig, trotzdem konnten wir etwas Fisch mit nach Hause nehmen. Sogar ein roter Knurrhahn war dabei. Es ist definitiv empfehlenswert. Falls wir mal wieder in der Nähe sein sollten kommen wir auf jede Fall wieder zu Kristijan aufs Boot.

Kristijan did a good Job, briefing us, locating the fish, and especially guiding the inexperienced anglers on how to catch their fish. We did the short trip so obviously catching the big fish was highly unlikely and not expected. But we caught a bunch of smaller fish. By fare enough for dinner. All together we enjoyed our trip with Kristijan a lot, will come back if we get the chance and would definitely recommend it for everyone that wants to dive into the boat fishing experience!

Wir waren an einem heißen Tag Anfang August mit Kristijan auf einer 6-stündigen Angeltour unterwegs. Wir haben mehrere Snapper und auch ein Makrele gefangen. Kristijan ist ein sehr angenehmer und hilfsbereiter Guide und ein klasse Typ. Es hat viel Spaß gemacht. Wir würden es sofort wieder machen.

We booked an evening half-day charter on August 19 with Captain Kristijan, starting at 5:30 PM. Getting to the marina was a quick Uber ride from near the arena in downtown Pula, near the Arena. Kristijan was extraordinarily hospitable, providing us with a variety of beverages and a charcuterie plate that featured sausages he'd made himself--excellent! We explored several spots around the bay, with varying success, catching a small number of fish, mostly Pandoras. The weather was beautiful; while the water had cooled off over the previous week, it was still quite warm, sending the fish relatively deep. We were mostly fishing just off the bottom, in 30 meter-plus water. While we had limited success, we did catch a few fish each and enjoyed the overall experience. Kristijan was a great captain and a most welcoming host.
