Yellowtail:  The favourite Yellowtail, found in big shoals in the general Cape Point area, is one of our toughest fighting fish.  The presence of small bait fish and squid tells us that the game fish are near.  The birds are a tell-tale sign of exactly where to catch.  Yellowtail is listed as a green species by SASSI, which means that they are a sustainable species to target.

 
 
Snoek: is a member of the Mackerel family.  Snoek has the reputation of being a worthy opponent.  It is a long narrow fish, growing to a length of around 1,5 meters.  They have strong mouths and razor sharp teeth.  They come onto the boat thrashing and kicking and do not stop till their last, a true fighter.

Off-shore Fishing Charter

8-10 Hours

Departure: False Bay Yacht Club

Off-shore: 
These trips are full day, roughly 8 – 10 hours.  We journey out anywhere from 10 miles to 40 miles off Cape point.  The target is Tuna Fish species.
 
For roughly 6 months out of the year in the deeper waters off Cape Point – two large ocean currents, Mozambique and Benguela, mixing nutrient rich waters, at a place known only to the locals as the “CANYON”.  Close to the continental shelf, here we get our large Tuna.  Among the many fish, our 4 main catches are as follows – Yellowfin, Longfin, Skipjack and Big eye, on occasion we do catch Bluefin or with any luck Dorado.
 
                       
 
Yellowfin:  10 to 40 miles off Cape Point, during the warm months of the year, we search for the big Yellowfin Tuna.  They can weigh anything from 25kg -100+kg, and they give you a fight to remember.  Sporting their mesmerizing metallic blue mainbody and silver bellies, these majestic fish have a second dorsal fin / sickles which are bright yellow.  Hence the name.
 
 
 
Longfin:  The Albacore is part of the tuna family weighing in at 10 – 30kg.  They have stunning midnight blue backs and blue silver sides with long pectoral fins. Found in tropical waters across the globe and are a regular and frequent catch off our coast.
 
 
 
Skipjack:  The smallest of the tuna family as well as most abundant.  They have a streamlined body with very few scales.  Their backs are indigo with silver bellies and sides.  With up to 6 dark bands running the length of their sides.  As small as what they are, for every tug you give, they will match and then some.  They are feisty.
                   
These Tuna can be caught with lures or by using bait (chumming).  It can take up to 2+ hours to land the big ones.  Or even as quick as 30 minutes.  
 
We might be surprised by a Big Eye Tuna or  a Dorado, maybe even some Yellow tail .
