Gamefishing Fiji - The best of Fiji Fishing
The Best in Gamefishing PDF Print E-mail

Fish the warm tropical waters around the remote South Pacific island of Kadavu. Jungle covered volcanic hills swoop down to mangrove bays and coral lagoons. 75 miles of Great Astrolabe barrier reef with outer slopes plunging to canyons of over 12,000 feet.

Blue marlin cruise within sight of the reef, yellowfin tuna smash bait balls as far as the eye can see. Packs of marauding wahoo cover the reef points and big Pacific Sailfish free-jump along the reef edges.

Sound like an anglers paradise ? It is.

Gamefishing Charter Boat MV Bite Me at Matava, Kadavu, Fiji

Bite Me is based at Matava Resort, a AAA rated 3&1/2 star eco-lodge on the South East side of Kadavu Island. Traditional thatched Fijian bures perch on the island's rainforrest covered slopes with private decks offering magnificent views out over the sheltered coral lagoons and Great Astrolabe Barrier reef.

Anglers can choose to work the mangroves, sheltered lagoons or reef edges for Giant Trevally, bluefin trevally, Narrow Barred (Spanish) mackerel, coral trout and a host of toothy reef predators or work the outer reef slopes for wahoo, yellowfin and Pacific Sailfish. Within a few miles of the barrier reef are deep ocean canyons where we find blue marlin, huge yellowfin tuna, mahi mahi and shortbill spearfish.

A seamount lies just 7 miles offshore with nutrient rich upwellings holding large concentrations baitfish and oceanic predators. An hour from the lodge, a remote coral atoll breaks the surface with sheer sides plummeting to depths of 6,000 feet.

It has been a bit of a topsy turvey run up to Christmas with very unusual water temperatures and even a direct hit from a Cat 2 Cyclone thrown in for good measure

Whilst the normal incoming flood of hot summer water hovers to the North West of the Fiji Islands, the rest of Fiji is still experiencing water temps some 3 degrees lower than normal.
