Wimpie Steenkamp

Member since July 2018 Struisbaai, South Africa
Background
I am a passionate Skipper operating only one boat and I am the sole Skipper of my boat you can be sure that on every trip I will be taking you to the best spots for the given weather conditions to catch a full quota. There are off course days that I don’t catch the full quota, but that day is yet to come. I grew up in this region and have been a passionate angler from childhood days and NEVER stopped being an angler from shore and boat (deep sea) in my spare time. I've always taken part in angling competitions and am very competitive by nature. I usually don’t give up and only stop when I have reached my goal. The reason why I prefer to be the sole skipper for my boat is to ensure a memorable experience for my clients and have them depart from the boat with only the best catch! From 1 December 2023 I am in a partnership with Henk Aggenbach. He is also a very qualified skipper who charters with me/ or on his own.
Techniques
Jigging, spinning, trolling and bottom fishing
