Saltwater Fishing Guides will easily turn your fishing trip into an unforgettable personal experience. With their professional approach, attention to detail, and lots of knowledge, they'll take you on a journey you can experience only in this part of the world. When you're joining an enthusiastic and passionate crew, it's hard to stay indifferent. Get ready for some serious fishing action!

There are two ways to approach this trip - by boat and from the beach. Fishing from the beach is perfect if you easily get sea sick or you're bringing your kids along. This way you get all the space you need and you can combine fishing with a picnic. Fishing from the boat offers a variety of spots and you can easily go further if the fish aren't biting.

Go after Yellowtail Amberjack, Snoek, Musselcracker, Geelback, and many more. Depending on what you're after, you can use different techniques and see which one works best for you. You get to keep the catch, so bring a cooler if you're saving your fish for later.

All fishing equipment, snacks, and lunch are included in the price. You only need to purchase your fishing license, pack some drinks (no alcohol, please), and pack your sun protection.

Saltwater Fishing Guides try to adjust each trip to meet their client's needs. They won't just take you fishing, they'll help you become better at it. A personal approach, professional equipment, and friendly advice is what you'll get here.

Response from Charter operator

I am sorry to hear you fee this way, however I believe this review is super unfair and uncalled for. 1. The trip clearly says the following: "The above package is offered for shore (Rock & Surf) fishing as well as offshore (Boat) fishing." What is misleading about this? 2. From the outset it was made clear that depending on conditions, if there are no fish around to catch from the boat, we will be fishing from the shore or vice versa. This was communicated and agreed on, on a few occasions. I have attached the screen shots from our chat My job as fishing guide is to try get clients onto fish. Unfortunately I am not control of the ocean or fish as conditions and behaviour change the best I can do is work with what I have. I simply chose what is best in terms of conditions and the chance to get a fish or two. On a few occasions during our session yesterday we discussed why the area we have selected to fish at is the best place to get some fish and why it is the best possibility. The guys even agreed. I cannot do more than that unfortunately. In terms of time slot, the guys where happy to pack up at 13:00, of they wanted to stay longer they could have said so. They are welcome to come for another session when they are back in the Cape for a few hours free of charge.
