Our 1st day fishing, we headed south and put our monster lures specifically for Marlins as we were in the peak season for these species. We ended finally the day with what we wanted, a Blue Marlin of 350 pounds, caught by both anglers Iain and Steeve.

Outstanding fishing

Worth every minute.
From Iain Green, Lucy Linney and Steeve

Nice trip with helpful captain but no fish. Cannot valuate quality of guiding, because i am not experienced in deep see fishing. Other boats catched fish but very little. My opinion: even in indian ocean you need a portion of luck or more time and money to try again

Although we had a tough day on the water with only two fish caught, I would happily go out again with Capt. Ludovic and his crew member Ken. They covered a lot of water and were constantly changing lures in an effort to entice fish. We also tried jigging in certain areas but with little success. But that’s fishing, no guarantees, but still a good day.
What has been extra top class is the service and follow up by fishingbooker.com. great communication and follow up. I will definitely use these guys again!!

We wanted to target smaller game fish , but on arrival only big rod and reels had been set up. Trip was basiclly joining the dots to fad markings hoping to target darado and tuna , to no avail somebody must have been there before us. One smalll tuna yellofin and that was all. Hey , don’t get me wrong anyday fishing is better than anyday not fishing.
