Captain
Avi Ramchurn

Member since September 2018 Grand Baie, Mauritius

Background: Capt. Avi is a Mauritius native who was born and raised in a big fishing family in Grand-Baie – their knowledge and expertise spans generations! Because of this, he developed a taste for the sea at a very young age. His father taught him the rules of traditional Mauritian fishing, and he loves passing this information on to his guests. Get ready to experience a true island-style angling adventure! Capt. Avi worked as a fisherman on fishing boats, as well as a skipper on a catamaran, a water ski instructor, and a diving instructor. He moved to Switzerland in 2005 for 10 years, and only had one dream: to return to Mauritius to start his big game fishing and tourist services! He can't wait to share the love he has for fishing and his island. He likes to say that his wife Valérie was "gradually convinced by the project's madness", and this is how Horizon Maurice was born in 2018!
Techniques: Trolling, jigging, popping, dropshot

Superb morning out looking for a Big One. Sadly nothing caught, but an incredible experience with Rocky and Julian trying to put us on the fish. Captain Avi runs a thoroughly professional and passionate Outfit. Highly Recommended, Novices or Experienced Deep Sea Fishermen.

I had the most amazing deep sea fishing experience! The service was outstanding, and the team truly made my dream come true. I managed to catch not just one, but two beautiful dorados! Thank you for such an unforgettable adventure – I can’t wait to come back.

We went out with Rocky, Kavi and Trish. These guys know their story, fishing was tough but Rocky played all his cards and gave us the opportunity to land a solid Dogtooth tuna, GT and a wahoo Would recommend Avi and his team to anyone. Rocky also helped us to make sure we can enjoy our catch in the resort. Fantastic group of guys Will see you soon in the near future.

I spent the day with Captain and Avi and Rocky, the boat was well equipped and comfortable for a day at sea. Avi has vast local experience in the and adapts and changes tactics and lures based on the conditions and the species he is trying to catch. I ended up with a sailfish and two tuna for the day. Would highly recommend.
