Game Fishing season still going strong

Offshore Fishing Report  –  Feb/Mar 2020

Since our great Marlin catches in February I have not found time to make a report. In the past 4 weeks Dorado are still around in good numbers, Wahoo in small numbers and finally the Yellowfin Tuna are starting to make a late appearance. Oceanic Bonito have been caught in big numbers along with a lot of Kawakawa which always give a great fight. We have been having some good fishing on most trips, as always some days are bad and others are exceptional and no 2 days are the same. Water temps have remained above 25 deg.C. I anticipate some more Marlin will make an appearance in the next 4-6 weeks before the season makes its annual change and I hope we start to see some Wahoo in bigger numbers along with more Yellowfin Tuna.

Bio: I have been fishing since I was 5 years old in Durban and have fished many places around the world and in South Africa, but Durban is my home waters. I fished competitive for many years and I have been running my own charters since 2008 with 2 companies and 2 boats, fish a variety of styles and target a variety of fish species in both Salt and Fresh water, have many published articles in several magazines on fishing. Love nature and outdoors, Am very conservation minded and have a passion for birds. I am crazy about big Tuna, Marlin Fishing and Game Fishing, and also love light tackle spinning, am a total lure junkie. Represented my province in fly fishing for many years and am also pro staff for Rapala/Shimano. I want to write a book on fishing one day. 3 items left on my fishing bucket list, guess then a new bucket list will be in order. As a writer I have my own quote: \"I love taking people fishing because it releases their inner child, and in doing so keeps my inner child alive.\"
