Watamu, Kenya

Bingo Fishing Charters takes you after some of the biggest names of sport fishing. Come chase Blue, Black, and Striped Marlin, wrestle with Yellowfin Tuna, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi, or go after Swordfish and Sailfish. It’s any angler’s dream!

The Kenya coastline has come to be known as the finest fishery in Africa, as the many All-Africa Sport Fishing records set here testify. Some of the best and most trusted hotspots lie just out off Watamu, where you can reel in numerous varieties of deep sea fish species owing to the natural contours right off the Milango (Creek).

You can get Billfish throughout the year, but there are some months you shouldn’t miss. September and October fish well for big Black Marlin on live bait, massive Tuna, and Wahoo. December to March is known as the best season for Sailfish and Marlin.

The crew will help you out whether you want to troll lures or live bait, or do some bottom fishing and deep dropping for Snappers or Swordfish. They have the local knowledge and a stable vessel to take you where the fish are.

‘Bingo’ is a 20’ custom-built Sportfisherman that carries all the equipment and tackle you need. She can take up to two anglers. ‘Bingo’ features Raymarine navigational electronics, a VHF Radio, outriggers, downriggers, a fighting chair, Tuna tubes, Kristal fishing electric deep drop reels, and safety equipment.

When packing for the trip, remember to bring food and drinks, a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and a camera. Get your fishing buddy and go smash that record!

We had a fantastic trip with Captain Muhsin. He was incredibly welcoming and his passion for fishing is infectious! We caught a blue marlin and a dorado. During both the team were very helpful throughout, giving tips to ensure we didn't lose the fish. I would happy recommend bingo to anyone traveling to Watamu

Such an awesome experience.If you want to fish with some locals you should book Bingo. Otherwise you are going with some Britains and bigger boats but if you are only two person this boat is perfect. The crew is super friendly and they working really hard to catch a fish for you. We caught one Mahi Mahi and something like a pike, i have already forgot the name ;) Unfortunately on this day it was hard to catch some live baits, but for every boat so the chance to catch an Marlin was quiete low. But we got one Bait and got one fish but we have never seen the fish who took the bait. Anyway it was an amazing trip and when i am back to Watamu i gonna book again Bingo. Thank you for this experience. I can higly recoomend to go Big Game fishing in Watamu and the price of Bingo it is more than fair you got some drinks and fruits on board and typical Keynian snacks like Keynian pizza and so on ;)

This was a fantastic trip. By chance, we booked during a billfish tournament. Captain Muhsin and the crew were beyond enthusiastic, perhaps even addicted to finding billfish, which we succeeded at! The boat was well equipped, the communications superb, and the experience first rate.
