Remote Exploratory Vanuatu Fishing Trip

Hello Raiders!

I've orginised a brilliant fishing trip in Vanuatu.

If you are mad keen about Doggies, GTs and other tropical fish species, read on.

You will dead-set need to be an easy going, friendly person who doesn't get too wild or drink to much. We can have no trouble at all on this trip. We are staying with local villagers in Vanuatu, and offending them is not an option. We get access to places like this because of trust, and offending these cultures mean they will simply disallow any westerners on their island again.

So please do not take this lightly, its not a 2 week party, its a great opportunity to fish area few have the pleasure of fishing.

If everything goes well with this trip, you will be invited to the very,very remote parts of Vanuatu, where no-one gets to go at all. But like I said, its a trust thing, and if we're not trusted over there, we wont have the opportunities.

Overall this trip ticks all the boxes as a jigging, popping, sportfishing adventure in a pristine environment; while the accommodation is in traditionally styled and more simple basic bungalow accommodation.

Located just off the main island’s north coast, it’s very isolated and fishing pressure is well away from the waters fished by Port Vila boats. From here you’ll fish areas such as Scotts Rock, Nguna, Cooks Reef, Monument Rock and Mataso

Fishing each day is on the 32ft EdgeWater, powered by twin 250’s this vessel is ideal for getting to the best spots quickly and comfortably fishing up to 5 anglers.

Day 1 we arrive in Port Vila, Vanuatu, and stay the night in town. Early we'll travel by car across to the remote other side of the island. The departure point is where we'll board the vessel and transfer 10km to Pele island, for your first evening of accommodation on Pele. The bungalow accommodation is clean, simple and very basic for anglers, added comforts are the warm hospitality and superb location. This is not 5 star luxury resort standard, think island style with bucket showers and toilets! Nor is it a resort as such, rather 2 bungalows on a beautiful island beach capable of accommodating 4 single guys or 6 max as couples. All meals are catered for and provided during your stay, local produce, fresh fish and fruits, supplemented with extra provisions bought over by our hosts

Fishing Days (8 all up)

We board our vessel early mornings and commence our charter. During this adventure we’ll fish pristine reef systems, underwater sea mounts and remote volcanic islands with steep cliff faces not only offering superb fishing but spectacular scenery. Sports anglers will target a variety of species including GT’s, coral trout, bluefin trevally, red bass and jobfish. Then there’s sailfish, yellowfin tuna, wahoo, mahi mahi and of course Vanuatu’s famous blue marlin.

If jigging is your thing then Vanuatu holds massive and unstoppable dogtooth tuna, a species we are very fond of... Bring heavy tackle, a strong back and plenty of jigs!

After each enjoyable days fishing we will return to our base where you can enjoy a swim, snorkel and a cold beer. Spend the evening at our own leisure whilst sitting back and planning the next days fishing events.

We have one free day in there too.

Second last day we go back to Port Villa, and stay the night. Next morning we fly back.

Everything included, except your fishing tackle and flights is 4480pp. We have two spots left. And anyone who has done this sort of trip know that is a bargain price for this many days fishing.

Dates are from Mon, October 24, 2011 – Sun, November 6, 2011

Cheers

Marty
