Grand Slam for Fat Girl - Dorado, Tuna, Wahoo

Offshore Fishing Report – Durban 10-02-2019

What a fantastic day out at sea with some superb fishing, and we only launched well after 8am with a father and son who landed in Durban this morning from the UK. The conditions were good with relatively flat seas and only a slight chop. It was very special day for this Grand Dad of 92 to land 2 Dorado (Mahi) for himself, well done this is an awesome accomplishment and we are honoured to have shared this with you. Kevin well done on your Grand Slam, it is not easy to get a Dorado, Tuna and Wahoo in one outing and to be able to land them all yourself. A wonderful day with a Wahoo, a Yellowfin Tuna and 5 Dorado (Mahi) which made really made the Captains Birthday special.

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.\"
