    Bite Me Fiji February 18, 2012 10:38 PM PST 0 likes

    I was born on the island of Cyprus and graduated to my first rod & reel at the age of five. Having fished around the world from the Arabian Gulf to the North sea and English Channel, I finally settled for the tropical waters of the South Pacific around the island of Kadavu, Fiji Islands. 

    I am  Director of Matava Resort Gamefishing, and skipper 'Bite Me', the resort's 31ft DeepVee Gamefishing vessel and thoroughly enjoy exploring the light and heavy tackle fishing around the island and Great Astrolabe Barrier Reef.  

    I am an IGFA Certified Captain, advocate tag & release and am a keen supporter of the IGFA and the Billfish Foundation.

    Hello and nice to meet you Adrian, it's great more and more are advocateing tag and release fishing. Sounds like you settled down in a pretty sweet spot, compared to the north sea and english channel. Im from Denmark and shure I have caught a small beagle shark in the north sea once, it was a great expiriance. But I was told it was pretty much pure luck as we where in as we was out fishing for cod and my tackle wasn't really matching shark fishing.

    Cheers
