FAVOURABLE FISHING CONDITIONS WITH PRIME TIDES & RISING WATER TEMPERATURES

ALPHONSE ISLAND FLY FISHING REPORT
1 – 8 OCTOBER 2022

Fovourable fishing conditions in the Seyechelles
Angler leasing GT after favourable fishing conditions

Spring tides for week three brought huge excitement for the guests who had already completed one week on Cosmoledo Atoll. With lots of fish seen over the neaps, guests, and guides prepared for a great week.

It was a new experience and the first time out on Cosmoledo for two of the guests. Lance Rorich and Graham Griffin had a week that will definitely have them returning. Lance landed his personal best GT of 96 cm, and Graham landed multiple GTs over 80 cm. The weather didn’t play its part for the week, making a few species like bones and triggers tough to target in the low light, windy and rainy conditions. Despite the complicated array of weather, Justin and Matt managed Flats Slams through the week with triggers, bones, and GTs for the day. Lance had a day to remember with Serge, where he landed a magical 64 cm permit, a few GTs, and some bonefish for the day.

Richard Came had some harsh luck with two big GTs getting away, one on a hook pull and one fish going through the 130 PD leader. He pushed on and, mid-week, managed a beautiful 96 cm GT.

The week was as predicted, with large numbers of fish pushing up with rays, big fish in the channels and pancakes, and a wide variety of species to be targeted.

Tight lines,
