From sheltered still mangrove bays to Great Astrolabe barrier reef breakers, the opportunities to cast poppers are right on the resort's doorstep and stretch for as far as the eye can see. We target the Bluefin Trevally, bigeye trevally and GTs.

We target the Bluefin Trevally, bigeye trevally and GTs with Daiwa threadline reels on Shimano T-Curve 50lb class Bluewater spin rods from both the inshore and offshore game boats. GT caught popper casting in Kadavu, Fiji

Common by-catch are red bass, narrowbarred (Spanish) mackerel and barracuda. GTs to 25kg and bluefin trevally to 7kg are common along the outer barrier reef.

All are fantastic sport on medium tackle gear.

Bite Me holds several Fiji National line class Records for bluefin trevally and GTs on the popper. Bluefin trevally caught popper casting in Kadavu, Fiji

If you wish to target the 50kg+ monster GTs that haunt the outer reef breakers, we recommend you bring your own specialised gear such as Daiwa Saltigas or Shimano Stellas.

You should bring more than one outfit as you are likely to suffer breakages from these huge fish.

We advocate catch & release on all GTs and bluefin trevally other than National or World Records.
