Boats are so olds and you need a wild immagination to go fishing there.

But in this forum i think that there are so many people who can forget the luxury and want to try the Last remote atolls! in India.

Hey Alex, this group of islands and atolls has long fascinated me as well and Vincenzo's report has reminded me of that!

There is a pretty good run down at Wikipedia and also some excellent maps there. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lakshadweep

And here is the official local government site: http://lakshadweep.nic.in/

Mark sorry No have 2 star only 5 star, life jackets as pillow is so confortable! just a little bit smell of Yftuna, fished some years before, mixed to a confortable noyse of a 1960 Yanmar( without silencer) for only 3 days and night in the open sea....this has no price, for everithing else there's mastercard ;D

After the photo with Kaibutzu long cast and full day noise i prefer to fish with others  rods
