We went fishing with Thiery who invited us to go along with him. It is a very interesting day out on the deep sea. The ocean drops to a depth of 3000 meters where we fished. Mauritius is in the middle of the Indian ocean and perches on a rock of lava. Once you get offshore you will be in the deep ocean.
We were 5 people plus the two crew. Thiery had us draw straws and Steven was number one in the chair.
The wind came up and the sea turned choppy with big swells. This affected Geran who became seasick. He had to spend 80% of the time on his back on the deck.
Because of the wind most of the usual fish such as tuna and dorado goes down deep but the marlin likes the swell.
Enjoy the video as Steven gets an opportunity to land a 140 pound marlin. A first for all of us.
