WOW! Nevagivup

Jul 30, 2016 Port Vila

Nevagivup has been on a roll, having some great fishing. On the back of a 80Kg Blue marlin which was caught on 8Kg line with angler AJ from outback QLD. AJ also landed some nice Yellowfin Tuna on 15Kg line too! Captain Charles Wheeler has been having sensational fishing for Black Marlin, Sailfish, some big Yellowfin Tuna along with some nice Wahoo. Fly fishing the last few days with Lance from Tasmania, they teased up Black Marlin, Sailfish and Wahoo. Today they tagged & released a 40Kg Sailfish by IGFA regs on 10Kg tippet. Congratulations Lance, a great fish! Thank you to Russ Housby who was the fly fishing guide, awesome job. Both boats out again tomorrow, bring it on!!

Amazing Fishing

Apr 26, 2016 Port Vila

It is hard to decide where to go at the moment as the inshore fishing has been fantastic with plenty of Black Marlin, Wahoo and the odd Sailfish. Offshore has seen giant Yellowfin Tuna and Blue Marlin, take your pick!

Reel Capture Cruise Ship Charter

Reel Capture ventured out this morning for a 4 hour charter from the cruise ship. They ended up with a Wahoo and tagging and releasing a Blue Marlin. Well done Captain Richard!

The day we went out the water was dirty and we didn’t catch a thing, would have been good if we had the chance to reschedule to a clearer day, a lot of money to pay to not catch anything and have that game fishing experience, luck of the sea I guess.

Thanks for your comments Vanessa but unfortunately sometimes we do get dirty water, as you said it is the luck of the sea and it changes daily.

Thank you Capt. Charles and the crew of “Neva Give UP”. On my bucket list I had “catching a black marlin”. Right after catching smaller tuna for live bait we tagged one beautiful Black Marlin! That day we also caught Dorado (Mahi Mahi), few Wahoo. As a whole, it was one great day! I can only say that I highly recommend “Neva Give UP”, Chris and the crew!
