Dan-man,
Tagging kit - Ori (Oceanographic Institute Durban -

Not too familiar with the area, but as always, locals will be the best info. Garrick, look for structure and drop offs in the water, they will be patrolling these areas. Take a selection of lures with you and go talk to locals (local fishermen), they should be able to send you in the right direction. Because fish move from one area to the next and are never 100% present in one specific area all the time, locals can tell you times and places to fish. Best will be a fishing store around that area, it's in their interest to give you accurate info.
Lures, always have a predator plug or two in your lure box. Again, locals will tell you what works there, but i would do some reading on this forum and take a selection with you. Experiment and you should do well. Just remember the golden rule, if you are getting no takes, change lures. Don't just fish one lure, I have many a time changed lures and had instant results.
Good luck, great part of the country, am sure you guys will have fun. (As always, try to release your Garrick, not great eating fish, numbers declining...you know what i mean).
Regards
Robin
