Background
Growing up on the water, I developed a passion for fishing at an early age. What started as simple days on the shoreline quickly grew into a lifelong commitment to learning the local waters, mastering new techniques, and chasing the kinds of catches that keep anglers excited year after year. After spending countless hours fishing both for fun and professionally, I decided to turn my passion into a full-time experience for others — and that’s how my charter began. Today, I’m joined by my trusted First Mate,Ludovic who brings strong experience, great energy, and a dedication to helping every guest fish with confidence. Together, we focus on creating a fun, safe, and productive day on the water for anglers of all skill levels. Whether you’re a seasoned fisherman or experiencing your first trip, our goal is to share the knowledge we’ve gained, put you on the fish, and make sure you leave with great memories.
Techniques
Depending on the type of fish we are pursuing and the speed at which we are moving, we utilise a combination of fishing techniques such as trolling marlin lures, jigging, casting, and live bait. This ensures that you have a multi-tackle experience and the best chance of success on your trip. Trolling marlin lures as explained, is at a speed of between 7 and 9 knots. The form of jigging we practise, consists of dropping a 200 to 300 gram lure vertically to a depth of around 100 meters (around FADs and in a boil) while retrieving and working the lure vigorously back to the surface. It is a good technique for yellowfin tuna. The motors are on neutral while the boat drifts slowly with the wind or the current, depending on which is stronger. Casting is about launching weighted lures or poppers in and around a school of baitfish. It works for skipjack tuna, yellowfin tuna and dorado. The motors can be running or on neutral, depending on whether we use this technique while fighting another fish or while trolling. Live bait or dead bait, depending on what types of live bait/dead bait we are using, work well for marlin, dorado and yellowfin tuna. The boat engines can be running or can be on neutral, depending on what fish we are targeting.
