Fishing Techniques & Target Species:

Bay Fishing – Perfect for light tackle and families, targeting reef fish, trevallies, and snappers.

Spinning & Casting – Exciting action for fast-moving species like giant trevally (GT) and barracuda.

Fly Fishing – A thrilling challenge in Bora Bora’s crystal-clear lagoons. Ideal for fly anglers who want to focus on the technical precision of this art—though it’s rarely practiced here, I offer it specifically for US travelers eager to try it in paradise!

Bonefish on the flats.

Grouper & Snapper in the passages between islets.

Giant Trevally (GT) on the main channel or along the outer reef!
(Note: I provide solid fly gear, but serious anglers may prefer bringing their own for peak performance.)

Offshore Trolling – Hunt for mahi-mahi, tuna, wahoo, and even marlin in deeper waters.

Jigging – Test your skills against powerful reef and pelagic predators.

Whether you prefer a relaxed day in the lagoon or an adrenaline-packed offshore battle, Pohinavai offers a customized experience in one of the world’s most breathtaking fishing destinations.
