If you plan on fishing in Watamu, look no further than VictoriaFishing. Your guide for the day is Captain Yusuf, so you'll benefit from their sportfishing experience.

Sailfish, Great Barracuda, Blue Marlin, Skipjack Tuna, Mahi Mahi, Amberjack, Giant Trevally, Yellowfin Tuna, and more can be found in these waters if you come at the right time of year. During the trip you might be spinning, popping, trolling, jigging, bottom fishing, or maybe something more specialized in this area.

If you're traveling with the family, you will be glad to know that kids are welcome aboard! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Snacks are permitted onboard — bring your favorites!

You'll find yourself aboard a 23' Mako center console that holds up to 6 passengers. It comes with outriggers, downriggers, a fighting chair, and all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is available, but be sure to ask about it so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, so you can drive right over and come aboard without any hassle! Some fish have special regulations, including when you can keep them. If you don't know what to expect, ask the captain.

Don't leave home without sunblock (non-spray), and sunglasses. Drinks will be available for you. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles. There will be food and some light snacks for you on board.
