Mossel Bay Signature Harbour Fishing Escape

Day 1: Arrive at George Airport South Africa

You’ll arrive at George Airport in South Africa, situated just 51 kilometers from Mossel Bay – your new home base for the next 6 nights and 5 days of fishing. You’ll be collected by one of our Go Fish Africa guides for a 35-minute drive to your BnB or Airbnb-style accommodation in Mossel Bay. The rest of the day is spent getting to know your guides. Trip planning will be discussed with you, including pickup times for the start of your first session. From there, we adjust each day based on success – we don’t follow a fixed time schedule, but rather what the ocean, tides, and weather give us. You’re free to spend the rest of your arrival day familiarising yourself with the beautiful coastal town of Mossel Bay and having a bite at one of the many fantastic local restaurants close to your accommodation.

Day 2: Familiarising Yourself & Getting on your Feet

Day one of fishing is always a bit of an adjustment, as you find your feet and start to learn the fish’s feeding habits and the techniques our guides show you. The rods are long the techniques are unique. Pick up on your shortfalls and celebrate getting on the board – catching your first fish – on day one of your South Africa fishing expedition.

Day 3: Fishing Techniques

More familiar with your surroundings and the fishing techniques, day 2 of fishing is often the most exciting for you as a fisherman. Eager to use what you learnt yesterday, you go out motivated and excited to catch some of what this beautiful coastline has to offer.

Day 4: Your found your feet & on your way to your bucket list!

You continue to learn, and by now you’ve found your feet and hopefully you’re enjoying some good fish activity. By now you should have a realistic expectation of the trip, and you’ll have ticked a few fish off your bucket list. The next few days are about growing that list and catching more. It’s possible that by now you’re willing to make certain sacrifices to ensure you get your dream catch for the trip. For example: skip the a high activity session to target a trophy shark or specie that’s not yet been ticked off. Or visa versa

Day 5: Another early start & a full day on the water

Another full day on the water. By now you know the drill, and it’s all about putting in the time to chase down more of what’s on your list. The fishing rhythm feels natural now, and every cast still holds the chance of something special. Enjoy the process — this is what you came for.

Day 6: The final day of fishing-make it count

Your last day of fishing — and it’ll have flown by. You’ll probably already be wishing you’d added an extra day to the trip. We take this day as it comes. If there’s a fish you’ve had your heart set on and haven’t landed yet, this is the day we go all in on it!

Day 7: The final day of fishing-make it count

Your last morning on our shores. For many, it’s one final session before heading home — soaking up the last bit of sunrise, the last cast, maybe one more crack at that fish that got away earlier in the week. By now you’ll know the beach, you’ll know the guides, and you’ll understand exactly why we do this. Our guides will safely transport you from your accommodation to George Airport for your departure from our sunshine shores of South Africa.
