Adam Shines at the Diani Samaki Classic 2026

17th January 2026

Adam delivered an outstanding performance at the two-day Diani Samaki Classic 2026, showcasing skill, focus, and determination throughout the competition. He secured 1st place in the Junior Category, a fantastic achievement against strong competition.

Here’s what he had to say:

I took part in a two-day fishing competition in Diani called the Diani Samaki Classic, which took place on the 10th and 11th of January 2026. During the competition, I caught four dorados, one tuna, and a massive sailfish. Unfortunately, we lost a black marlin that was estimated to weigh around 350 kg. My dad caught one sailfish and one dorado, and his friend also caught a sailfish. We lost a few sailfish as well, but all billfish were released safely. I won 1st place in the junior category, and our boat, Sea Skipper, finished third overall in the competition.

Do you have something you are working on outside of school? We would love to hear about it!
