Great day fishing with Jari, his captain and crew!  Best part was catching long toms, fantastic experience on light tackle which is a personal favorite with me.  And the challenge of hooking them and then the subsequent fight is great. We also caught king mackerel but the high point was the long toms which the crew sashimi’d on the boat while we beached on an island waiting for the tides to turn.  After fishing, headed to Jari’s restaurant where he had dropped some of the catch and we had king mackerel steaks for dinner.  Overall a great day.

The day wasn’t perfect for fishing but Jari’s crew were fabulous. Even with a storm bearing down they made sure we got that elusive fish. The best thing was the offer to cook it for us the following night in their restaurant. Thanks fellas for a fantastic day. Definitely recommend 👍

It’s no doubt the best fishing experience we had. Kids kept catching loads of snappers and groupers at the beginning . The crew was really helpful with bait and showed us how to fish.

The boat were trying to go further out at the middle of the day but finally didn’t due to the big wave. We were back at a spot and tried to fish big ones ,  using live squid they prepared and the snappers we fished before as live bait. Got a big long fin trevally at beginning but no luck in the middle.  While waiting captain prepared us delicious sashimi with the long tail we caught and with fruits they prepared . It’s was such a refreshment. When we just about to leave the spot we caught the fish of the day, the massive king mackerel. The children and all of us were so cheered.

We moved then to spot to spot in the late of the trip to get fish. Another big harvest for the kids, they were so excited with all kinds of species and crew was really experienced with where to go.

We finished our trip with loads of fish and great memory on the sea. Even it was rocky and burning hot in the middle of the day. Crew was friendly and thoughtful however we need to use google translate to communicate with them. Last thing to remember next time, go to the toilet before we are on board. We will come back next year to seek another adventure with Jari that’s for sure .

A very knowledgeable crew and well appointed boat. I caught many good fish.
