3 YEAR OLD FIRST FISHING EXPERIENCE
3 YEAR OLD FIRST FISHING EXPERIENCE
Sep 20, 2017 Durban
We were contacted by Ruella, the mom of this beautifull family. They were going to be in our neck of the woods on holiday and wanted to give their 3 & 5 year old kids fishing experience. Challenge accepted!! we set a date for the charter and moved it around a bit until we found conditions that would be safe and comfortable for the kids. the morning of the charter was cloudy with scattered rain. that afternoon the family joined us on Blu Ray, a cloudy and somewhat nippy afternoon, we set out. the plan was to stop just outside the port entrance in the shelter of the bay at Vetches reef, this area is abundant with bait balls of Mackerel, the light tackle and the constant bites had the kids highly entertained with loads of laughs and smiles. with time and daylight running out we ran out slightly offshore to one of the many reefs off the Durban coastline and went down for some light tackle bottom/reef fishing. The family enjoyed some great catches and had fish to take home for the pan. Our crew filleted all their catch, all mom had to do was to slap it on the pan. on the way back into port, we took the family for a tour of the Durban port and explored all the sights and sounds of the Southern Hemispheres busiest port. The crew had just as much fun as the family, it was great to have a more relaxed trip that was more about fun than catching fish!! Awesome Family....Awesome day at sea
