hey stephan, my parents are mauritian. went on hooker 1 from river noir. Justin, have you sorted your power bill out yet man????? keen for a fish soon for sure.

hi all, just got back from Mauritius. only got to do one decent trip for marlin with no marlin caught. did catch alot of bonito and two little tuna and two dolphin fish which they call over there darado. ill try attach some pics for you all to see. Now just gotta get back into the fishing here:) cheers damien (i cant figure out how to attach if i can email to a moderator to post for us would be great )

hey Russ, my old man is a great cook but is over seas ATM but ill post some reciepes up when he gets back.

thanks bro, i am mauritian too but aussie raised. got a deep sea trip organised there through relos but thought i might try more during the days on the beach chilling out. ill let u know how i go.... cheers damien

hi all, im heading over to Mauritius for 2weeks with my 3yr old daughter in october for a wedding/family visit. i am going to buy a four piece spin rod to fit in my bag tomorrow and packing my 2500 diawa exceler reel to come across with me in the hope that i can fit some flicking in. My question/need of advice/suggestions is what lures/plastics should i think of bringing. i fish alot with smaller lures like tt's, eco sx40/48's, smiths etc etc. also have used plastics a fair while. i was thinking perhaps some packs of gulps?? for those of you that dont know, Mauritius is a small tropical island off the south coast of Africa surrounded by a coral reef. any help would be appreciated and i will definantely take pics while over there and post how it goes cheers all damien

lol. the elements of the west.... PM yes dear he might know i been a couple freezing times there with no luck. cheers damien

i would like to know as well if anyone knows of spots. a friend has a property up there but doesnt fish and ive asked a few times to ask round but no replys. hunting yes but no fishing

let us know if u do. good luck

selling any???

one less child support to pay means more fishing gear....

keep fishing dont give up.....

nice one Jim. what area of Parra river.What gear did you use? no exact spot needed. cheers damien

any news from the weekend would be appreciated too:) anyone know the weather for tuesday

good to hear they might last. i was thinking that ultrabite liquid or aniseed even. i got sick of my car smelling like gulps too which also helps when taking out the ladies.......(which doesnt happen often cause im usually too busy fishing) cheers Slinky

i opened a sealed bucket today that was full of opened and leaking gulps. some were starting to go mouldy and others were white and full of white mould but still rather soft. there was about 30+ packets from when i used to use them alot before switching to hardbodys. i salvaged most throwing the bad ones out. i placed all the good ones in one of those small sealed buckets from bunnings i had lying around in the garage. i also had two tubs of gulp alives which i poured into the bucket with the juice. this just covered the gulps so i went out and bought two more tubs of gulp alives (any excuse to go to the tackle shop,thanks Wacko) and added them in there also, which now covers the gulps. im wondering if anyone has done anything like this before? will it affect the performance? what about mixing all the styles and coulours together? only problem now is that i gotta basically be in one spot or on a boat seeing i have a little bucket. guess ill have to buy more to keep in the bum bag whilst wading and walking round. cheers guys looking forward to hearing of other experiences like this or answer/help. damien
