We arrived in Port Vila the morning of Feb. 6th to start an eight day live aboard fishing adventure down to Santo and the surrounding islands…cannot say enough about Capt. Russ, Laura, Shawn, and Lonny….great captain…explained everything in great detail and simple enough for even farmers from the states to understand…Lol….boat was very clean and spacious…..food was outstanding with Russ grilling out on the deck every night….Lonny and Laura were very professional on the deck….making sure landing the fish was safe and they properly taken care of…...Laura was a pleasure to be around and is a great asset to the boat for women who love to fish…..hope to return next year for another trip of a life time.

Thanks so much Neal and Toots. It was a pleasure fishing with you and can’t wait to see you next time!
Where to even start…. From the moment I arrived at the airport I was greeted by “Russ” the skipper ! We talked about a game plan in the car on the way back to our accomodation at the wahoo fishing lodge for the next day . Day 1, jigging mania , tried a lot of new styles and areas to jig and in no time it was game on. Countless fish , From Dogtooth tuna , Almaco jacks , coral trouts , GT’s , rusty jobfish the list really goes on. And make sure you HOLD ON ! From spot to spot we would put the trolling gear out and in again in no time , BIG WAHOO! and even got a really nice black Marlin that went nuts ! Got my very first yellowfin tuna weighing in at close to 50kg ! The variety of fish here is amazing endless species ! I have done this trip a few times now with Russ on nambas fishing charters and highly highly recommend it for anyone travelling to Vanuatu !

Hi Chris, Thank you for the review I am so pleased you enjoyed your fishing on Nambas. We look forward to fishing with you again soon. Russ
Great day out on the water, the fish played the game well. Skipper and crew very professional and great to deal with. Have already recommended to friends. The only negatives were that the teenage girls out-fished the parents and that the 13 year old daughter caught a Marlin and won’t shut up about it! (next time the kids can stay at home and the parents will fish!)
Hi Steve and Dana, So pleased you all enjoyed your fishing with us. The girls did an impressive job and we look forward to seeing you guys again on your next visit to Vanuatu!

Russ worked hard to find the workups, and unlucky not to boat 2 x 50kg Yellowfin. The one we landed was magnificent. The boat and crew, boat and line handling, and overall demeanour were first class, with all top gear, so anything not caught was not their fault!
Hey Nick, Thanks for the review. Was great to meet you all, we hope to see you again in Vanuatu. Russ & Laura
