Nice fishing day at Bolgoda guided by Shakti

Darren and his family were traveling in Sri Lanka for Christmas holidays. Darren and his son love fishing and had planned a day fishing at Bolgoda with us. As I was guiding clients at sea, they were guided by Shaktivel, who's put them on the good spots and caught fish. Here is the kind word of Darren of his fishing day. We cannot expect better than that.

"Hi Nicolas. Just got back home after the most wonderful family holiday. What a fantastic country Sri Lanka is, and the people who are so lovely.

We had a great day with Shakti on Bolgoda lake. He did a great job and took us to some areas full of fish. Featherbacks mainly topping everywhere but we didn’t feel like they were feeding. My son Daniel hooked a good one but lost it right at the net. I caught a beautiful barramundi which was my main target and also mangrove jacks. We also saw some great wildlife, birds, monkeys and 1000’s of fruit bats! A great day!

Many thanks for your help in getting us there, sorry we couldn’t manage to sort a day for the GT’s. I hope next time. Some amazing fishing to be had in Sri Lanka. Darren"

Thanks Darren and congratulation for this nice barramundi. I hope to see you again in Sri Lanka and next time I will put you on some nice Gt's
