Excellent Fishing again in Namibia

Henties Bay - Saltwater Fishing Report

We have had some really excellent fishing with days on the boat landing over 100 kabeljou with a minimum size of around 3kg (6lb) and up as much as 12kg (24lb). Anglers going home many a night with sore arms is great from a skippers point of view and every single client we took out has re-booked already for next year!
The shore fishing for sharks remains excellent although with winter approaching the sea has turned a bit rougher now. Best shark in the last few weeks was 134kg. Our tag tally for Shark Fishing in Namibia this year (year to date from 01/01/2014) is 314 bronze whaler sharks caught and released! I have no idea how many Spotted Gully Sharks as we are out of tags!

Henties Bay Fishing Forecast:

Winter is now approaching so focus turns squarely on the edible (kabeljou and steenbras) fishing.

The next month or so should have the potential for a really big Bronze Whaler Shark and the other smaller bonzies will hopefully be around all through the winter like last year.

Target Species:

Shark Kabeljou Steenbras
