Best fish of the trip for Allan

The weather was sometimes a bit choppy but that didn't bother the boys


The best lures that week seemed to be the black Buffalo D or the Hammerhead in purple / Silver

Late March GT Popping Report

Returning regular popper casting angler Le returns for another crack at the Kadavu GTs. This time with fellow fisho Matt from Australia.

Matt with a nice Kadavu GT

The weather was a bit average, some swell, a day or two of thundery rain showers...



Made an interesting back-drop view from the outer barrier reef slopes


The bite in general was a bit slow on some days with some unusual current directions and coloured water closing down some of our favourite stretches of reef but an improvement in the weather meant access to some rarely fished areas. (Joe's secret spots) At the right tide time the bite was good.

Just some of the boy's weaponry

Best fish of the week was this nice GT over 30kg for Matt
