Ultra Light Tackle & Record Hunting

Nothing compares to fighting a gamefish on ultra-light tackle. When you are hooked up on 4kg line class to a little 10kg yellowfin tunaand the fish laughes in your face and peels of 200 yards of line, then you realise what a challenge you are in for on these ultra-light line classes. Here on Kadavu, any gamefish hooked up is a potential IGFA World Record....

Ultra-light tackle gives the fish a better than even chance of escape and demands superior angler skills and specialist, carefully prepared tackle. When fishing with Ultra-Light gear we allways strictly adhere to the IGFA Angling Rules and use IGFA Rated line, usually pre-tested.

Our longest fight to date was five and a half hours on a potential World Record Pacific Sailfish, only to be bust off by a dolphin.

If you want to do some specialist National or World Record hunting, we can put you on to the right fish and maximise your chances.

Tell us what your target species is and we will advise on the best time to come.
