Jim where are you planning on fishing in Fiji?

I fished Vanua Levu, out of Savusavu bay while on my honeymoon with the wife. Took a bit to get out of the bay, but your in YFT territory right off the beach if you stay at a place that is ocean front and has a cove. The resort we stayed at had a perfect launch too, but they didnt have the yaks for fishing. Landed a 45 lb. YFT and a 20 lber right outside the bay. The fishing was almost as amazing as the untouched views of Fiji.

Enjoy it! The wife and I are going to get back there one day.

Fiji is still in the planning stages but likely we will be boat based so will have a lot of mobility. The boat we used in New Zealand will be heading over there and asked if we would like to come and visit them in Fiji.
Tough decision.

What year was that Boca Grande trip Jim? I loved that place!!...
It gets packed though worse than announcing wfo on BD..
I didnt catch my Tarpon there, but got one later in the Keys that shot my Prowler out of a mangrove channel like a hi-powered crossbow releasing an arrow after he ate my crab!!..

Fiji!.... Livin the DREAM!

Boca Grand was two years ago and was our first shoot. Ripping Current, Tons of Boats and Sharks and Tarpon rolling all over. The place was crazy but very exciting. We re targeting Tarpon again in 2011 on the east coast of Costa Rica.
