\u2013\u00a0 climate change is taking its toll&#8230;<\/h3>\n<p>After our strenuous adventure in the Laccadive Islands, I flew directly from India to the Maldives with \u201cSpicejet\u201d airlines, a flight of just under two hours. I met up with my wife Martina who had arrived there a couple of days earlier.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This time we visited the Gaafu Alifu Atoll, close to the equator. The Gaafu Alifu Atoll is also known as the Huvadhoo Atoll and is located in the southern part of the Maldives. Being 70 kilometres long and 55 kilometres wide, this atoll is the largest of the Maldives and this even makes it the biggest known atoll in the world.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_65911469\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" style=\"margin:0px 0px 30px 0px;\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"520\" height=\"386\" src=\"https:\/\/bluewaterfishing.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/a4b2da7bb8.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bluewaterfishing.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/a4b2da7bb8.jpg 520w, https:\/\/bluewaterfishing.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/a4b2da7bb8-500x371.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 520px) 100vw, 520px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_65911469 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<p>For a change, the main purpose of our week there was dedicated to recuperation and relaxation, although the many channels around the resort positively shouted fish. I quickly organized a boat and set off for some popper fishing and jigging. Unfortunately the weather really threw a spanner in the works &#8211; worldwide climate change led to the monsoon rain and storms still being around in December. Higher water temperatures have also left their mark. The house reef with its multitude of corals and fish has been badly affected by coral bleaching.<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_1589882233\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" style=\"margin:0px 0px 30px 0px;\">\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"520\" height=\"386\" src=\"https:\/\/bluewaterfishing.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/26b8984d66.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bluewaterfishing.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/26b8984d66.jpg 520w, https:\/\/bluewaterfishing.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/26b8984d66-500x371.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 520px) 100vw, 520px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_1589882233 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<div id=\"c5137\" class=\"csc-default\">\n<p>Unfortunately, we were only able to cast our poppers and stick baits into the almost untouched reefs and channels for three days due to the poor weather \u2013 the rest of the week was marred by the monsoon.

explored uninhabited islands and sand banks in the hope of catching a bonefish or a GT. By the end of the week I had covered miles and miles without seeing a single bonefish or GT. The number of triggerfish was also much lower than in other Maldivian atolls. I did, however, manage to hook a big one bit unfortunately lost it when my line snapped on the corals. There were plenty of bluefin trevally, queen-fish and miscellaneous smaller reef species around which were quite easy to catch using the smallest of streamers.<\/p>\n\n  \n    <div class=\"row
