    Fantastic Experience

    4 hour guaranteed catching of fish on October 30, 2025 • 1 adult

    We had the most amazing day fishing with Wayne. My son was very keen to catch a fish whilst being on holiday in the Western Cape. Wayne did not disappoint! He caught a Cat Fish and Carp and he was absolutely delighted! Wayne showed great enthusiasm and kindness on our day together. He was as very knowledgeable and helpful. Wayne knows exactly what he is doing as has such high respect for the fish. Wayne's priority was us having a good time and he did not disappoint. We had the most fabulous day, a once in a life time experience in authentic South African surroundings. I would absolutely recommend Wayne for this fishing experience, you won't be disappointed. Thank you for making our son's holiday complete.

    Unforgettable fishing trip with Captain Wayne!

    5 Hours guaranteed fish on December 13, 2024 • 1 adult

    Captain Wayne made our fishing trip an unforgettable experience! We had so much fun. From the moment we stepped aboard, the captain's professionalism and friendly attitude set the tone for a fantastic day. He was not only knowledgeable about the best fishing spots but also patient and engaging, making sure everyone felt included—whether they were seasoned anglers or first-timers. The energy was unmatched, and he truly made it feel like more than just a trip—it was an adventure! The highlight? We all caught fish. Captain Wayne went above and beyond to ensure it was a memorable experience. If you’re looking for a fun, well-organized, and downright amazing fishing trip, Captain Wayne is your guy. Highly recommend!

    Tee's fishing Excursion

    4 hour guaranteed catching of fish on February 9, 2023 • 1 adult

    This fishing excursion is well worth it if you like catching fish. I caught a tremendous amount of fish as Captain Wayne and his crew kept my poles baited and ready to go. He even supplied me with beer and sodas to drink. Captain Wayne went above and beyond to make the excursion memorable.

    We enjoyed fishing and wine tasting

    Cape Town Fishing - No Fish No pay on December 29, 2019 • 4 adults

    The captain is very kind. He worked hard to catch a lot of fish, so we caught many big carps. The captain himself set up the tent, started the fire, grilled the meat, and took care of everything. Then he fulfilled our request to go to winery for wine tasting. Our whole family was very happy! Thank you so much. captain! Better if you clean inside of the car and outdoor chair.

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.
