An exciting day of fishing
Despite a two-metre swell in the early hours of the morning, weather conditions remained clement for the sport fishermen who had come to tackle the waters of the Mediterranean, in an area stretching from the islands of Hyères to off Cannes. Ironically, the six bluefin tuna caught and released were close to the shore, providing an unexpected spectacle for the participants. The crews also enjoyed some exceptional encounters with marine life: a school of playful dolphins, two sperm whales, turtles, manta rays and flying fish, notably as they left the Gulf of Saint-Tropez.
A commitment to the environment and young people
True to its commitment to ocean preservation, Suzuki once again associated the event with its Clean Ocean Project program. Throughout the day, participants collected floating waste, contributing to the fight against plastic pollution.
This edition also spotlighted the next generation of anglers, with the participation of six juniors, including Tamara (15) and Léo (16), members of the SNST Junior Team, aboard the Rhéa Marine. Two emblematic figures of sport fishing were also present: Arthur Jerbillet and Sébastien Mongruel, ambassadors for the Suzuki Fishing Team.
