I'm sure this question has been exhausted previously, but I can't locate an answer in recent postings! We are going to be in Bora Bora May 5-9 and my husband would like to book a half-day fishing charter. We were on the Taravana several years ago and would like to try a different captain. Does anyone have any recommendations? He is primarily looking to fish for marlin or large gamefish.

Thanks!
Heather

Captain Richard Postma, owner of the Taravana also has a 36' Seawitch, like a 36' Lures or Bertram, Captained by Tahitian Captain Tepoe. Phone 689-72-95-85. I am a charter Captain on the Texas coast and there is really no other choice than Richards Organization that is any good. I fish with him or one of his people every year. Like 20 years......http://www.boraborabob.com/tahiti/latesttrip

And see a little of the boat, some Mahi Mahi and the Tahitian Deckhand.

Any fishing or other questions I would be happy to answer...32 years of Bora Bora. boraborabob@hotmail.com

Are there places around the islands to fish without getting a charter? I am going in October and my fiance loves to lay out while I love to fish.

Fished with Capt Topoe on the Luna Sea a few weeks ago and got a nice Blue Marlin. 689-72-95-85. PIC at: http://www.boraborabob.com/tahiti/P4100012.JPG

Good luck.
