About this activity
Marlin and Game Fishing in Durban is thrilling on our 34ft Convertible Sport Fisher called Fat Girl.
Fat Girl is properly equipped for Marlin and Game fishing with top class Shimano Tiagra tackle, outriggers, fighting chair and Furuno electronics. Powered by twin 250Hp Yamaha outboard motors, she has a fly bridge, a large aft deck and a cabin with a comfortable lounge and private toilet. There is a sound system on board. She comes with an experienced Captain and Mate along with all required safety equipment. Fat Girl gives a very comfortable ride even when the sea is a bit choppy.
On this trip we target Marlin, Tuna and other Game Fish far offshore. This is a long range trolling trip looking for big fish and sometime we encounter rougher waters.
In the warmer summer months from October to May we have Marlin in our waters along with Sailfish, Yellowfin Tuna, Dorado (Mahi Mahi) and Wahoo. The best time for Marlin is from December to April. In the cooler winter months we go out in search of Yellowfin Tuna and Sailfish and on occasion we have caught Marlin in the winter months.
We have often got a Blue Water Grand slam on these trips. (Tune, Wahoo and Dorado)
All tackle and bait are provided along with help from the crew.
We are highly experienced and know our waters well, have a good record and reputation but do not guarantee any fish, there are too many variables and conditions dictate, we always give our best efforts.
Marlin fishing is not easy and we do not always get a strike, this needs to be understood upfront, if it was that easy everyone would be doing it, the angler will also have to be strong enough and fit enough to be able to fight a Marlin successfully.
All our Marlin Fishing is strictly catch and release.
Start Time: 05h00
Max 6 Persons allowed.
To bring With: Suitable clothing for fishing, hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, towel, snacks, food, refreshments, camera and Fishing License. It gets hot in the summer and winter mornings are chilly, it is always best to bring a light rain jacket.
Please consult your chemist for sea sickness tablets if you prone to this.
Note: Please don't forget to get your Fishing License's from any South African Post Office before your trip.
