All the various prime fishing habitats are here and begin five minutes after launching, opening up to a vastness of virtually virgin fishing grounds in every direction. You can expect to find the Somosomo straits and outlaying areas to be dotted with acres of birds and teeming baitfish, primarily skipjack, small Yellow Fin Tuna, big eyed scads, regular scaddies, flying fish, mackerel and ballyhoo. Within the day range, anglers can expect to find all types of pelagic and reef fish as the topography is varied with ribbon reefs, pinnacles, islands, channels, outer reefs, straits and sandy flats. Every direction is full of possibilities for an exciting, productive day of fishing of world class trophys. Depending on the anglers preference they can fish for Black Marlin, Blue Marlin, Swordfish, Sailfish, Wahoo, Mahi-mahi, Yellow fin, Big Eye Tuna and Albacore and depending on the fates they will catch them. For the reef fisherman who enjoys casting there is Giant Trevally, Blue fin Trevally, Barracuda, Walu, and Dogtooth Tuna.The boats layout and beam allows the angler to choose his method of fishing and is able to experience a varied day of fishing by trolling for Big Game on the way to the sites for GT's. We can accommodate all stand up fishing styles from fly to 130 lb class test. For GT and Fly fishermen we suggest you bring your own gear, as we are fairly confident there are some world records to be right here. We support Tag and Release for Billfish and GT's that are non-records. Fiji is a sport fishermans paradise. Fish, dive, or do both.

After you've landed a 45 lb. Tuna the chef will prepare it as a sashimi appetizer and serve it to you for dinner that night.
