Blade Charters works on creating memories for you and your loved ones. Come to Hermanus in Western Cape, South Africa and have a terrific time fishing its inshore, nearshore, as well as offshore waters. The grounds in this area are rich in fish and the nature is beautiful, so join the friendly and skilled skippers and spend some lovely time on the water with Blade Charters!

Your journey will start on a restored 26’ Hysucat offshore sport fishing boat. It’s powered by two 175 HP Suzuki engines and can accommodate up to 5 guests. Its full-featured navigation technology is comprised of GPS, a fishfinder, radio, as well as radar and it will help you locate the fish fast. The boat features a toilet, and there will also be an ice-box at your disposal to store your fish and drinks.

There’s a lot of prized species you’ll have the chance to catch and some of them include Snook, Skipjack Tuna, Blue Marlin, Kob, and Geelbek. Using both heavy and light tackle, you’ll be targeting them by bottom fishing, deep sea fishing, trolling, spinning, jigging, and popping. Depending on the size and quantity, you’ll be able to keep your catch. Kids are also welcome to join your trip.

There’s absolutely nothing for you to worry about regarding the things you’ll need for your trip. The fishing equipment, bait, food and drinks, fishing licenses – you’re covered for everything. Also, the crew will clean and fillet your catch free of charge.

Join Blade Charters and have lots of fun fishing the productive waters of Hermanus!

Amazing Fishing Trip
Special 4 hour trip for Jeff Koltutsky on January 5, 20263 adults
This was an amazing fishing Trip! Lee-Ann and Jan were awesome at helping me organize, plan, and make this trip happen. We were a small group of 3, and Lee-ann was able to pair us with another group of 2 so we could all have an affordable fishing trip. Without her help, it would not have happened. Our captain for the day (Manny) and his first mate (Essau) were professional, educational, helpful, and fun! We caught tons of fish, and the action was good all day (my son kept count and said he caught over 20 fish; he was not able to keep them all, but was very busy and happy catching fish). We caught four different species of fish, and a guy on the dock helped us clean them. I took home as much as I wanted to cook up, and my wife said the fish was the best meal we had on our trip to South Africa. Thank you, Blade Charters, for an incredibly positive experience!

Full Day Fishing Trip on January 3, 20265 adults
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hermanus Fishing Blade Charters What an incredible experience from start to finish. We saw dolphins swimming extremely close to the boat, which was absolutely amazing and something I'll never forget. The crew was top-class - friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful. They sorted out all the tackle for us, so we could just relax and enjoy the fishing. We caught plenty of fish and even had a braai at sea with boerewors, which made the whole experience even more special. Perfect mix of adventure, great company, and unforgettable moments on the ocean. I would 100% recommend Hermanus Fishing Blade Charters and will definitely be back again. 🎣🐬🔥
