Fishing in Mossel bay

Mossel Bay in the Eden district of South Africa is the home base for this spectacular fishing trip. Steeped in maritime history, Mossel Bay was founded by Bartholomew Diaz in 1488. It is one of the very few North-facing sea towns in the country and has a temperate climate that has been compared to Hawaii (not in actual temperatures but in how little the average fluctuates over a year) and an extensive range of sea and land activities. Most importantly for use, the great fishing in the temperate Indian Ocean bay from which the town takes its name.

For the fishing in this location we offer standard and custom packages. (including accommodation and meals). We offer rock-and-surf excursions from shore as well as deep sea trips by boat. The main target species in and around Mossel Bay are big sharks including raggies, bronzies, hammerheads, makos, threashers, hounds and more, as well as rays including black rays, duckbills, diamonds, blue rays and marble rays and more. Species caught from the boat are edibles and game fish like kob, steenbras, white and black musselcrackers, garrick, yellowtail, yellowbellies, grunter, galjoen and many more.

Having mentioned all of this makes it obvious that the fishing is done both from shore and from boat.
Fishing from shore is usually done with 3 to 4 rods fishing for the big(ger) sharks and while waiting you can cast with lures from shore to try and catch one of the more than 370 species of fish that are found in this area.

Fishing from the boat is done on reefs in the area with a maximum depth of 60 to 80 metres. We get good results on jigging as well as live bait fishing.

You will be fishing with dedicated guides. They will take you to the best spots in the area and will do their utmost for you to catch your dreamfish.
