Captain
Eddie Redelinghuys

Member since September 2019 Shelly Beach, South Africa
Background
I bought my first boat brand new in 1981 and fished ever since, it is in my blood up to today. I am the skipper of my own boat. I did fish as a charter operator for the last 19 years at S/B due to the fact that most Charters want to catch Game and bottom fish and I do both. I want everyone to be happy and catch fish, as well as make memories to be retold over and over again.
Techniques
I do Trawling for game fishing mainly yellow fin Tuna. Afterwards we do some Bottom fishing depends on how strong the currance are. If a Client book the whole boat but when he decides what he wants. I did a lot of Marlin Fishing before and still holds the South Coast Record for the last 14 Years. For the last 14 yrs I have the Record for the biggest Blue Marlin 584 Pounds. I also hold the Record for the biggest Yellow Fin Tuna for at least Ten Years the record is now Broken.
