★★★★★ 5/5
What a magic day out on the water, was bucket list for sure!👌🏻 Would have been happy with just one decent Yellowfin, but to have hooked 5 was beyond all expectation 🥂 Very professional skipper, crew and setup, would definitely recommend!
Thank you to Sean and Jack for a fantastic day out at sea. It is a day that I will remember for the rest of my life. I have been fishing off the KZN coastline since I can remember but Tuna fishing off Hout Bay is a special experience. I caught the biggest fish of my life that any angler would be proud of. It is the definition of big game fishing and I can't wait to do it again.
