Hello All, My name is Kurt and my wife Lynn and son Keith run an accommodation and GT charter fishing business in the Vava'u group of Tonga. We left Hawaii a bit over 6 years ago and have been having a great time meeting people from around the world and watching their reactions when they hook up to their first ever GT. So, If you ever get to Tonga, please look us up in Talihau village at Lucky's Beach Houses. Our website is www.talihaubeach.comThank you Alan for allowing this kind of post on your site, this is indeed rare. Malo 'aupito, Kurt |

I've been to Tonga and met Kurt while I was there but unfortunately his boat was in for government inspection/certification @ the time so I was unable to fish with him.
Vava'u is an incredibly beautiful place and the potential for the kind of fishing he does is spectacular.
