About Go Fish Tours
Welcome to our world of passion and sustainability, where fishing is more than just a sport—it’s a way of life. We are deeply committed to the principles of sustainable fishing practices and proudly advocate for the importance of catch-and-release. By releasing our catches, we ensure the preservation of fish populations, allowing them to thrive and ensuring abundant fishing opportunities for years to come.
In collaboration with the esteemed Ocean Research Institute (ORI), we actively participate in tagging fish and compiling essential data for scientific research. Through this partnership, we strive to deepen our understanding of marine ecosystems and contribute to their long-term health and vitality.
At the helm of our operation is Shawn Mey, a visionary leader who has assembled a remarkable team of fishing travel experts and professional guides. With their unparalleled knowledge and expertise in angling, we are dedicated to crafting fishing tours that transcend expectations, transforming them into truly unforgettable experiences. Whether your heart yearns for the rugged charm of camping in Angola, where the desert meets the vastness of the ocean, or the allure of exploring the vibrant reefs of St Lazarus Banks, we are here to help you realize your fishing dreams. Together, we will navigate the waters, cast our lines, and chase after those elusive species that have found a special place in your bucket list.
At the heart of our mission is a deep-seated belief that sustainable fishing is not just an individual endeavor, but a collective responsibility. By joining our community, you become an integral part of a movement that strives to protect and preserve our precious marine ecosystems. Together, we can make a lasting impact through our actions and choices, ensuring that the magic of fishing remains accessible to all and that the beauty of our natural world endures.
