Meet the MIYABI Ambassadors
Daniel Caire
Pêche Dada 62
I am Pêche Dada 62, based in northern France, in the Pas-de-Calais (62) department, near Boulogne-sur-Mer.
I am a passionate surfcasting and jetty angler, but I also enjoy carp fishing, ledgering, feeder fishing, English-style float fishing and pole fishing.
I have been fishing in the sea since the age of five, and after many years on the shoreline, fishing remains as much a passion today as it was when I first started.
Target Species
Florent Catherine
FloFish
My name is Florent Catherine, also known as FloFish, and I have been a passionate recreational angler since childhood.
I mainly practise surfcasting along the Cotentin coastline, where I enjoy targeting a variety of species by adapting my approach to the conditions of each session.
What I enjoy most about fishing is sharing experiences, constantly learning and simply spending time by the sea. I do not consider myself an expert — just someone who is passionate about fishing, continues to learn with every session and enjoys passing on what I have learned to others.
Target Species
Olivier Causeur
Olive Surfcasting
I am Olivier Causeur, also known as Olive Surfcasting, an active surfcasting angler based on the French Atlantic coast, mainly fishing around La Tremblade, Ronce-les-Bains, La Côte Sauvage and the surrounding beaches of Charente-Maritime.
I fish exclusively from the shore throughout the year, adapting my approach to the tides, seasons and changing sea conditions. Before every session, I carefully observe the waves, sandbanks and currents, believing that reading the sea is one of the most important skills in surfcasting.
Depending on the season, I target a wide range of species including sea bass, sole, gilt-head bream, rays, meagre, whiting and turbot. I regularly take part in local surfcasting competitions with LCPA Surfcasting La Tremblade, but what I enjoy most is sharing my passion while practising our sport with respect for nature and fellow anglers.
Target Species
Javier Leyva
Surfcasting Atarfe was created over ten years ago from a passion for fishing, the sea and protecting the coastal environment.
My name is Javier Leyva, and I have the privilege of living my passion along the Andalusian coastline, fishing from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea.
Every beach offers a new challenge, and every session brings the excitement and enjoyment that make surfcasting such a rewarding discipline.
Target Species
Daniel Fernandes
I have been fishing since I was a child and have always been passionate about surfcasting.
I enjoy both recreational fishing and competition fishing, always striving to improve while respecting the sport.
Protecting nature and preserving our oceans are values that are very important to me, and I believe every angler has a responsibility to care for the environment we enjoy.
Target Species
Jeremy Le Blanc
I have been surfcasting for over 15 years. My favourite beaches are those along the Emerald Coast, particularly around Saint-Cast-le-Guildo.
They may not always produce the biggest fish, but their incredible diversity of species makes every session enjoyable. I am a committee member of Team Surfcasting Côte d’Émeraude, where I organise our club’s internal championship across five rounds, help welcome new members and contribute to the development of our local fishing community.
I also enjoy taking part in surfcasting competitions held throughout western France. My favourite conditions are calm seas, where I can enjoy targeting sea bass, gilt-head bream, garfish and mackerel. However, my favourite season is autumn, when conditions become more challenging but often produce the most memorable fishing sessions and the biggest catches.
