Fishing Charters

Pride of the fleet is Baloo. Walking down from the helm station into the luxuriously furnished galley, convertible into a bedroom, you will find a comfortable bathroom and guest bedroom easily providing total over night capability for four people. Catching, cleaning and barbequing can all be done on the same huge cockpit deck. With so many fish in the sea, it may be hard to come up with a valid reason to return back to shore.

Baloo is fully equipped for all your needs. Seven Penn International rods and reels can be used simultaneously to increase your chances of a catch. Down riggers spread the lines and are easily accessible. The tuna tower provides the captain with a much higher view of the sea which allows him to spot the fish from further away. For long days out at sea the vessel has a head and comfortable seating down below in the spacious cabin if you want to get out of the sun for a while. All modern fishing and safety equipment is included, from GPS and fish finder to a full compliment of lifejackets and VHF radio.

With a length of over 38’ and a beam of 11’ Baloo has plenty of space on board. The facilities on board allow for longer trips. We regularly run three or five day charters to Pemba, Mafia Island and the famous Latham Island where in the past fishermen have taken time out from catching fish to snorkel amongst huge schools of tuna and alongside manta rays. On these trips we enjoy fantastic fishing and then can relax in the evening with a cold beer and barbeque the fish we have caught that day. You’ll never eat fresher seafood than that!

Combining sailing, fishing, snorkeling, scuba diving and gourmet dining, Pelagic is the ultimate all in one holiday experience. The shaded cockpit, interior saloon, fully equipped galley, 3 double cabins, 2 heads, stability and spaciousness of a 38foot catamaran enables you to relax in comfort.

If it’s fishing you are after Pelagic is equipped with 6 rod holders, and aft fishing platform as well as the latest Lowrance fish finder, all complemented with a professional crew. Alternatively if it’s just a relaxing day in the sun there is the forward trampoline to bath on. A days snorkeling followed by a fresh seafood buffet, with some fishing and dolphin spotting is one of the favourite charters. A romantic sunset cruise is the perfect way to celebrate any special occasion combined with an afternoon fishing charter.

Suli Suli is an 8.5m open deck boat which has been professionally converted for the job of fishing. She has had a fighting chair added, along with fish finder, GPS, downriggers and six rod holders. As with all our boats she holds a current certificate of sea-worthiness and is equipped with lifejackets, VHF radio and all other safety gear. Her two 40HP Yamaha outboard motors allow her to cover a lot of ground in comfort and make sure you can get to where the fish are.

When you find the fish you have six Shimano rods and reels with 20lb lines to choose from. If you wish to bring your own tackle or would like to use something a bit heavier then let us know and we’ll accommodate you.

This vessels open deck design is perfect for the sun lovers amongst you, allowing you to top up your tans on the way out but with enough shade that you can shelter if it gets a bit too hot. The open deck allows for keen fly fisherman to cast their lures in schools of feeding Tuna, Dorado and Rainbow Runner. Many of our guests and several experienced fishermen have said Suli Suli was their favourite boat. She is simple, unpretentious and perfectly suited to a great day out in the sun, bobbing around on the sea and the experienced captain and crew always seem to find fish!

The South Africans have a prestigious boat building history. Ocean Spirit is a 7.5m Windy from SA  and lives up to the history in every way. This custom built fishing boat is powered by twin 100HP 4-Stroke outboard motors. The vessel has enough power to reach some excellent fishing grounds including Leven Banks and Pemba Island in comfort and style. The vessel is a Catamaran Hull offering the extra comfort and stability on the ocean, and is ideal when conditions are right for popping and jigging. The crew of professional fisherman can guide beginners through their first trip abut have enough experience themselves to help even seasoned veterans.

Ocean Spirit carries a wide range of fishing equipment. She has downriggers so your lines won’t get tangled and you can choose from thirty and fifty pound lines. The rods are a combination of Penn International and Shimano and are all in excellent condition. All that good equipment would be useless if there were no fish so the boat is equipped with a fish finder, GPS and VHF radio alongside all the usual safety equipment. There is space for six (6) people to share the boat without a squeeze. There is a toilet on board, and plenty of cushions etc for extra comfort.
