Born in Durban where I fished a lot in my younger years. While working on cruise liners as a waiter, I spent my off days, when we were in port, fishing for fun. I really grew to love fishing and have fished all over the world. When I was back home, I continued fishing and started doing ocean fishing before changing back to the river. I'm always experimenting with different baits and techniques.

    Great trip with Wayne

    Special 5 hours trip for Moritz Häckel • 4 adults

    Wayne and his team were great at communicating and organizing the fishing trip. Wayne was able to assist us with his knowledge of fishing and the local waters. He took care of everything so we only needed to show up and fish and not worry about anything. Their hospitality was outstanding and we could laugh a lot and had an amazing fishing trip. There was plenty of snacks and drinks provided by Wayne, and his wife took some really nice pictures of us in action. Overall I can only recommend booking a tour with Wayne if you want to have a good carefree time fishing in South Africa!

    We had the most amazing day fishing with Wayne. My son was very keen to catch a fish whilst being on holiday in the Western Cape. Wayne did not disappoint! He caught a Cat Fish and Carp and he was absolutely delighted! Wayne showed great enthusiasm and kindness on our day together. He was as very knowledgeable and helpful. Wayne knows exactly what he is doing as has such high respect for the fish. Wayne's priority was us having a good time and he did not disappoint. We had the most fabulous day, a once in a life time experience in authentic South African surroundings. I would absolutely recommend Wayne for this fishing experience, you won't be disappointed. Thank you for making our son's holiday complete.

November brings warmer sea, which means Cape Town fishing is about to get hot. Catch Yellowtail and Geelbek. You can go after Kob standing surf fishing style. Out in the open, Yellowfin and Longfin await.
