Olivier SAUVEPLANE

South of France. Saltwater fisherman.

From the Arctic Circle to the Equator… always under the sun

Hi,

My name is Olivier, I'm 38 years old and I've been fishing since I was a kid, both in the sea and in fresh water . For about fifteen years now, I've been traveling the world in search of thrills: whether north of the Arctic Circle , in Norway , to hunt giant cod and halibut , or under the burning sun of Madagascar , in pursuit of record-breaking GT trevally .

These dream destinations are also extreme environments, where the elements give no respite , and especially not the sun . I fished for a long time without really protecting myself... and looking back, I regret it. I seriously depleted my sun capital .

Since I discovered OUTWATER's technical anti-UV clothing , it's been a real game changer. I've gained in comfort, endurance, and above all protection . Whether it's the sleeves , the caps , or the polarized glasses , they have become essential elements of my equipment. Especially during long days of fishing in full sun, where every minute counts, and where every ray counts too .

In Madagascar , I really appreciated the importance of wearing appropriate clothing. These kinds of conditions are unforgiving.

And today, whether I'm in France in the summer , in Africa or elsewhere, I no longer leave without OUTWATER . Because living your passion intensely should not be at the expense of your health.
