Another great day for fishing

Closed for 20 months of lockdown. The first fish of the week

Boys, boys and their fish !!! Being the month celebrating fathers' day, each day has been a great day out for fathers and their sons, catching beautiful fish.

Went out in search of gamefish after not having much luck the first day. First fish of the day John snagged a marlin. Still on the first, the second marlin caught the other hook. The reeling and running was on.Tagged and released. Fished on and got the trifecta of mahi mahi, yellow fin and wahoo.

Night fishing !!! She gets down to 14 degrees ... It's cold for us here now . Potatoe cods and Spangled emperor have been on bite during these cooler nights . Elders said these fish love these cooler seasons . I don't mind taking a few of youse out and giving the experience of the old "Fijian style of Fishing" during the night . Attached are a few pics of our catches of "FULL NIGHT"fishing . We caught a sail fish on elctrics "bit of a surprise"at 200m . Young fellas were happy with the catch , so did the grand pa holding on to the rods for them ...

Captain Azam from Malolo fisher here . I had Ben and Natasha for some serious fishing on the Valentine's Day . To make it special , I thought of using the digital electric reel with the giant yellow fin tuna on that day positioning her on shot gun . Day started of great with the first hook up on a 15 kg yellow fin tuna on the out rigger on a 15 kg shimano tiagra . Happy days !!! Got one !!! Didn't take long when the same rod went off again with a 300 kg blue marlin that was jumping around on its tail . For a big fish Iike that , it's an amazing sight . My crew Mo goes like , oh my .... The reel peeled and smoked and to my surprise , the other outrigger goes off too... A SAIL FISH ..... All just happened in a couple of blinks and wasn't long when both the fish got freed from having a crossed line , running in to each other . Alas ..... Still trying to get over it , as a stage of shock that we lost both the fish , with the lures and the line .... The electric reel on shot goes off ..... These guys were on fire .... Fishing for big tuna is a normal thing but on digital electric reel was unusual on a special day. You gotta try out to know what happens . Well ... A few things happened that day and I'd like to share . The beast of a tuna had no mercy and peeled of 450m straight down deep with in seconds . To my surprise , all the wires connected to the batteries started smoking and pretty much heated up . By the time time we disconnected the fittings , the fuses blew off and all the electric equips shut down including the gps . Motors were running . Just when I realized , it wasn't a good idea to use those electric reels on this unmerciful beast of the yellow fin tuna . Too late though ... She was on !!!! It was 0630 pm , half an hour to sunset and I knew it would get pitch dark soon . So I called Captain Bob for back up as we were still a fair way away while we fought the the beast . It took us 2 and a half hours straight to see the fish . We landed the fish just before Bob arrived and followed him back to shore . Have attached some pics below and it was hell of a Valentine's day .... Our gamefish will run through out March and if you looking for an adventure , now is the time . But no electric reels this time ....
