Captain Fujita's Fishing Log
Adrenaline, at Full Boil.
From coral-reef fish to the monsters of the blue — GT and tuna. Only Pohnpei lets you chase them all in a single day.
TARGETS
The Stars of This Sea
From inside the reef to the open ocean, the spots are minutes away. Light reef fishing to world-class big game — all in the same day.





THE CAPTAIN
The Captain
Kazuhiro Fujita
- A familiar face on TV
- Former helicopter pilot
- 20 years on Pohnpei
- President, local tennis association
A celebrity skipper you may have seen on TV — and, of all things, a former helicopter pilot. Captivated by Pohnpei's waters, he put down roots and has now devoted twenty years to this island.
Sharp judgment honed in the sky, and twenty years of what he calls his kan-pyuter — an intuition computer — reading the day's wind, tide and birds. He will keep working the spots until the fish his guests came for is in their hands.
Step off the boat and he trades the rod for a racket. A keen tennis player, he now also serves as president of the local tennis association. His weapons of choice are a Babolat Pure Aero and a Yonex VCORE, wielded in turn — and somewhere on a court today, one of them is surely on fire.
