Go on the fishing trip of your lifetime.
“Game fish are too valuable to only be caught once.” – Lee Wulff
Columbia recently visited unique destinations with prime species where sustainable fishing is a key focus point. Among the exquisite locations were Alphonse Island in the Seychelles. With our feet planted firmly in the belief of utmost preservation of our species and ecosystems, Alphonse was a top choice by any standards.
“… What we’ve learnt is that here in the Seychelles is that the value of a fish is more alive than a dead fish. If you can preserve an area that’s worth way more than having an area that’s decimated.” – Keith Rose-Innes, Managing Director of Alphonse Island
As the pressures of commercial fishing, habitat encroachment and global warming increase, unique species found in these pristine destinations such as Triggerfish, Permits and Bonefish are proving to put up even more of a challenge as fishermen have to constantly keep up with the most innovative techniques and equipment to reel in their catch.
“… Because we’re having to run longer distances and really go at these fish in different ways, the gear allows us to be out there longer. … Staying lightweight and cool just kind of keeps you in the zone ’cause once your mind goes everything starts to fall apart.” – Capt. Brandon Cyr, Reel Shallow Charters
