Tuna fishing out of Houtbay.

[Fritz]

A mate and I are interested in fishing for Tuna from Houtbay. Plan is to fish for those big Tuna that hang around their. Can anybody point us into the right direction for a charter company and what time of the year to do this?

Does'nt Miles (member) do charters in CT? I think he is one of the Guru's of Tuna fishing.

Oct-Nov for the bigger fish (>80). April - June for plenty of good fish (40-80) with bigger ones in between.
Try Two Oceans or South Seas Safaris - from Simonstown or Gordons Bay. Both top skippers.

Eish we traveled about 60 miles out to get to fish. Then a storm came up and we had to traverse mountains to get back home. took us 8 hours to get back and it was a big boat, but was dwarfed by the size of the waves.

I know that feeling, Have sailed past their many times in my life before delivering boats. When you sailing a 38 foot boat and the top of the swels is higher then your mast you must know that you are in the @#$$@.
 
Its the time when you make piece.
