Mozambique Angling Adventures

Cracking bluefin for Capitao Coetzee, good spending some time with you again in your natural habitat.

with a cracking wahoo on a Xplode popper. Fish went fully airborne straight towards us with the popper in its jaws. No better way to get a good fish than off the top!

What better way to end the day than a Marlin at sunset. guests getting bent. She came in a little green and threw me around a bit, will post that video tomorrow

And so the guiding begins, hammerhead jnr hooks the biggest fish of the day and hands it over to one of our lovely guests to tussle 🙈 🇲🇿

Always good to get a couta recapture, Tim Martin staying at Balistidae doing the honours 1037 days after it was tagged.

Another shot of fish in the whirlpool bath, along with minimizing time out of the water, the whirlpool bath gives us time to measure, tag and fully appreciate these amazing fish we have spent many many hours pursuing.

122cm GT for guest , this fish of a lifetime was landed on the first day of a week long trip. Tight drags and heavy leaders makes for a brutal but short fight, meaning we can get the fish back nice and strong after a quick tag.

A couple of super King mackerel on the fly for guest

113cm GT, guest Henk and his 2 grandkids tag teaming to get this brute to the boat, a memory I'm sure they'll never forget. bath

1156 DAYS in between captures of this Giant Trevally, we originally tagged her in July 2019 with Peter Stewart. She was recaught on the same reef last week by Barry de Beer, although she wasn't measured or weighed before being re-released, it's estimated to have put on about 8kg This is now out 8th GT recapture in the Maputo National Park, and goes to show how important it is to release these territorial bruisers of the reef. They are great candidates for release, as they are poor eating, well behaved on the deck and are a tough hardy species. So great to see more and more people releasing GT's
