We shared a hired boat going from Ambanizana to the Nosy Mangabe Island Reserve with this South African who had been in the area a year earlier when a Japanese fishing fleet had been working the Bay of Antongil. He said there seemed to be a lot less sea-bird and fish action this year than last. He did catch this one 4 kg bonito which put up a tremendous fight and tasted excellent, but we decided not to try for more.
