We went to 2 different locations, the guide was knowledgeable and well prepared for the different style of fishing in the two rivers. We caught 5 fishes, lost one because of a line snap. I would recommend this tour.

Awesome Street Fishing Trip!

South African fishing with dinner on November 2, 2019

As an angler in Cape Town you have only one thing in mind: Big game fishing. But I have to speak of luck that I found Wayne's local tour! The street fishing tour with Wayne was one of the highlights of my trip to South Africa. Rarely have I had so much fun fishing. With Wayne you get in touch with the local anglers and learn what it means to be an street fishing angler in Cape Town. Wayne leads you to wonderful spots on an inconspicuous river that you would never find as a tourist. With a lot of heart and joy Wayne and his buddy make every effort to make the fishing trip an unforgettable experience. Besides fishing with different lures Wayne also spoils you with delicious local beer and early in the morning with delicious coffee. To protect me from the cold ocean wind he even set up a tent! Thanks to Wayne's expertise I was able to pull more than 6 catfish out of the river during my trip. An incomparable experience! Next time I will book it as an evening tour, as the catfish bite even better. If youre in Cape town for big game - try Wayne too! You wont be disappointed! Can warmly recommend Wayne!

Born in Durban where I fished a lot in my younger years. While working on cruise liners as a waiter, I spent my off days, when we were in port, fishing for fun. I really grew to love fishing and have fished all over the world. When I was back home, I continued fishing and started doing ocean fishing before changing back to the river. I'm always experimenting with different baits and techniques.
