Fantastic stuff Duarte.
I had the pleasure of meeting the guys in Vilankulos on Saturday before they flew out and they gave me a bit of a run down of what happened over their few days of fishing. Fishing lures they reported raising 7 fish on the 12 & 13 October in a small area deep off sailfish bay. But, the fish were very unresponsive and they only hooked a couple, one of which a very big fish that pulled the hooks. On the 14th they had another 2 strikes that did not find steel and finally on the 15 Seaducer released a fish around 200 lbs and Little Joey had a double hookup but pulled on both fish.
The guys certainly come across a good number of fish which for some reason do not seem to be feeding properly – the unseasonal low pressure might have something to do with it…but surely they around & do have to come on the bite sometime…

Hi Duarte just got home from a fantastic week of fishing. We hooked 4 released 2 one died and one we kept. A total of 14 marlin caught and 10 released. Was fishing the annual CADSAS billfish tournament again when i got into a argument with a 433 lbs marlin. Needless to say the marlin lost and i got 11 stiches...:fbash
We, my crew of Dream Catcher and i , had a wonderfully tournament. Not only did we caught 4 marlin, released 2, but won the tournament as well. The winning fish weight was 731 lbs.What a great place... ::S

Dream Catcher, congratulations::S:clap12:clap12:clap12 on the fantastic fishing and on winning the CADSAS :first– that argument with the 433 lbs looks pretty messy…tell us about it?
Hey, give us more details and pictures on your great week… What did you get most of the fish on, what about the big girl? I heard there was another big fish that was sharked which remains weighted around 750 lbs, was the fish heavily taxed? What you reckon the weight on her was?
A total of 14 Marlin caught and 10 released – [/b]pretty sad to see such a big percentage of the fish killed
, is there no minimum weight on the comp? How does the rules actually pan out, is it most releases or biggest fish?
Been really busy and absolutely no time to report but here´s a couple pictures from the 2 days I just had with the ESA guys. Obviously doing a show of this kind we were looking for variety and concentrated in getting as much species as possible - which we did plugging and jigging the first morning.
However, the best catch of the morning was not the biggest or toughest but rather a small but very rare (in this part of the world) dogtooth tuna that we obviously released. It is only the 7[sup]th[/sup] doggie I catch off the archipelago in the last 10 years…this was jigging in 32 meters off 9 mile.
Has anyone caught or know anyone that have caught or released a doggie of Bazaruto? All the fish I have caught here were small 4-14 kilos and mostly in the same place in fairly shallow water. Would be really interesting to know if anyone has seen a big one here…

Hey Greg, good luck at Inhaca men. Been speaking to my mates there and fishing been really good with loads of YFT around. A mate of mine also released a couple of Black’s in the 2-250 pound range.
Never saw Gandalf over the week or heard them on the radio!!! Where they also fishing the CADSAS???
After a lot of jumping and wheeling around with the UW camera guy in the water we managed to get some great video shoots and bring the fish in for a release…

In the afternoon we had a great but very frustrating jigging session with the boys losing more jigs than they would have liked…a few busted fish and lots of cuda break off’s.
But we also got some good fish and some not so good....like this little cheeky one trying to gulf down a big jig - hilarious:hyst::hyst:!!!
