God's Plan Fishing Charters

God’s Plan Fishing Charters is a promising fishing charter, based in Durban. Captain Hylton has been fishing since he was a kid. At first, he used to sell the fish he caught to make a living and worked his way up in the fishing industry. He’s proud to present his new boat and the opportunity to help other people catch fish. Whether you’re a novice angler or an experienced one, there’s a place for you on God’s Plan.

This is a 19’ Ace Craft vessel that accommodates up to 7 guests. To make the trip more comfortable, it’s best to have fewer anglers on the boat. If your group is large, you’ll probably have to wait for your turn to fish. This center console is powered by twin Yamaha engines and features navigational electronics, a cooler, live bait tank, and outriggers.

There’s a trip available for any type of angler. If you’re a novice, just looking for some fun and learning basics, take a short backline trip just outside the harbor. There are adventures that let you change your fishing spots more often and target more fish species. For passionate anglers, there are full day trolling and deep-sea trips that let you go after Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Marlin, and other big game species.

All fishing equipment is covered by the captain. He’ll let you keep the catch within regulations and clean it for you free of charge. Just pack some food, drinks, and sun protection.

Join God’s Plan Fishing Charters and let your adventure begin!

Growing up, I used to catch fish and sell to the public to make a living. It wasn't easy back then but, through my hard work, I progressed. Over the years, I managed to get myself a charter boat. I do what I'm most passionate about and I've managed to fulfill all my goals! I love seeing people catching fish and enjoying themselves, my key is to make sure every trip is memorable to clients Come and fish with people who are passionate as you are !!!
