- Info
Ideal Conditions:
Ideal conditions include calm seas with light winds and moderate temperatures, typically early mornings or late afternoons when fish are most active, paired with clear weather for safety and visibility.
Moon Phase:
Fishing can be more productive around the new moon to first quarter phases due to tidal activity encouraging feeding, though good fishing occurs throughout lunar cycles.
Best Period:
Prime fishing season runs from October to April, when migratory species such as tuna and marlin are prevalent off the Western Cape coast.
License:
A permit issued by the South African Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries is required for fishing. Many charters include fees and handle license compliance for guests.
