About Your Trip
Join Wilkus for a guided rock and surf fishing adventure along some of the most productive stretches of South Africa’s coastline. These 5-hour trips for up to two anglers are a great way to experience the excitement of Cape surf fishing while learning proven techniques from a knowledgeable local guide.
Fishing takes place along the coast between False Bay and Still Bay, where a mix of sandy beaches, rocky points, and reefy structure create excellent
habitat for a variety of species. Depending on conditions and the time of year, anglers may target Kob (Kabeljou), Galjoen, Elf (Shad), Steenbras, Blacktail, and Hottentot.
These trips focus on rock and surf fishing, one of the most iconic forms of angling in South Africa. Wilkus will guide you through bait presentation, reading the water, and proper casting techniques to help you fish effectively from the shoreline. Whether you’re brand new to surf fishing or looking to sharpen your skills, the trip is designed to help you become a more confident and capable angler.
All rods, reels, tackle, and bait are included, so you’ll have everything needed to get started. Wilkus also offers casting clinics and technique instruction throughout the trip, helping anglers improve their distance, accuracy, and overall approach to fishing the surf.
These trips are limited to two anglers, allowing for a personalized experience with plenty of hands-on guidance.
