Providence Blog: 21-28 Oct 2025

Week 2 welcomed a great blend of returning guests and first-time visitors, all arriving with high spirits and eager anticipation for the fishing ahead. With the weather looking promising at the start of the week, hopes were high for quality time on the flats before the spring tides began to build.

Day 1
A bright, sunny morning greeted the anglers as they prepared for their first day on Providence. Conditions were ideal, and the team wasted no time getting stuck into the action.

Dennise kicked off his week in style, landing both a moustache triggerfish and a yellowmargin triggerfish—two prized and notoriously tricky species. Yan and Andrea each opened their GT accounts for the week, bringing solid fish to hand. Nikolay added to the variety with a beautifully marked bumpy, a favourite target among many Providence regulars. Yuri rounded out the day’s highlights with an excellent performance, landing three GTs and setting a confident tone for the week ahead.

Days 2–6
Unfortunately, nature had other plans. As Cyclone Chenge began tracking toward Providence, the decision was made—rightly and safely—to leave the atoll and seek calmer waters until the system had passed. Safety is always the first priority, and while it was extremely disappointing to cut the fishing short, the group handled the change in plans with good spirits and understanding.

Although Week 2 ended far earlier than hoped, the single day spent on the flats still delivered memorable moments, a handful of high-quality fish, and a taste of what Providence can offer. We would like thank the group for the understanding and attitudes on an extremely disappointing outcome, and look forward to welcoming this group back so we can provide them with the experience they were really hoping for!
