Foreign Trip?

[Steve Sorrell]

Already i'm thinking of a foreign fishing holiday some time next year.
Looking to find something that will not break the bank.
Definately ocean fishing and hopefully a variety of species.

Where would you reccomend.....??

Check out South Africa, just been given some info for probably the cheapest blue water fishing in the world, marlin etc from £350 a day, thats for the boat, not each angler, have a look at www. fishsodwana.co.za. Friends have just been there, diving, not fishing, but fish upto 250kg were caught when they were there, looks good.

Many thanks for that Pete.
Those prices sound very attractive!
I'm also thinking Kenya for the sails.
Time will tell.

Steve, they catch them aswell, all the BIG stuff, blue and stripped marlin, not sure about blacks, apparently fairly easy to get there, 4 hour drive from Durban, mainly dual carriageway and empty, don,t know whether you can fly direct or not? Might have to go Joberg and on to Durban.? The beach launch looks interesting, maybe a change of underwear needed!!!!!!! Could be a real blast, fancy some of that myself. A week, blue water fishing, including flights, boat, car , beer and maybe food for around £2500 per head with 2 people going, sounds tempting, the missus doesn,t do boats, so I guessshe can stay on the beach!!!!!

Yeah, looks good.
Luckily i've got the pass out, so just trying to drum up interest with a couple of mates. I'm told Emirates fly to Durban via Dubai. I'm going to look into some prices.
My only worry is that the website is a bit vague.
If you find out any more please let me know.
I looked at Pemba channel and further north but it's not cheap!
All the best,

Steve

Steve, for more info, contact John matambu, 08 44 00 2628, runs the Tackle shop in Sodwana, runs 2 boats, not the same company as the website, the owners of that run the pub.
