Bravo à Chandra, au capitaine John Gavin et à Craig pour cette incroyable sortie de pêche ! Leur expertise et leur dévouement ont fait toute la différence : nous avons capturé trois magnifiques thons rouges, alors que les autres bateaux n'ont rien pris. Excellente pêche, excellent repas et un équipage très professionnel.

L'expérience était incroyable. L'équipage était formidable, compétent et très accueillant. John, Chandra et Craig, ce fut un plaisir de faire votre connaissance et d'en apprendre davantage sur la pêche au thon. Aux passionnés de pêche, je recommande vivement cette sortie. J'espère que nous aurons le plaisir de nous revoir bientôt. Et je pense parler au nom de tout l'équipage, réunis entre amis, en disant : « Un grand merci, nous avons passé un super moment ! »

C'était une expérience incroyable ! On a pêché de super poissons et l'action était au rendez-vous. Même sans ça, passer du temps avec eux était génial ! Ils sont très compétents, très accueillants et la pêche était au top ! Je ne ferai plus jamais appel à personne d'autre !

John et Chandra sont des hôtes et des guides exceptionnels. Ma femme et moi avions déjà pêché, mais aucun de nous n'avait jamais affronté un poisson aussi impressionnant que le thon rouge géant. Notre journée en bateau fut une aventure extraordinaire. Chandra nous a merveilleusement bien appris l'art subtil de combattre un poisson de 360 kg pendant une heure. John, quant à lui, nous a permis de pêcher toute la journée et a piloté le bateau avec brio pour nous aider à remonter nos prises. L'accueil était irréprochable, la cuisine de Chandra délicieuse et la bière bien fraîche. On ne pouvait rêver mieux : une journée à la fois palpitante et épuisante. Je recommande vivement cette expérience.

Recently vacationed in Nova Scotia and chartered a tuna fishing trip with John and Chandra Gavin. Had an awesome time. The Gavins and their deck hand, Craig, we’re all very knowledgeable and accommodating. Had our son who has special needs with us. The crew went above and beyond to make this experience enjoyable for him. And, my husband reeled in an 800+ pound tuna, 9 to 10’ long. Would definitely recommend Giant Bliefin Tuna Fishing.
