Picture this: you’re in one of the most beautiful and pristine locations that east South Africa has to offer, with a rod in your hand, spinning for some unique saltwater species…and there’s not a boat in sight! For anglers who want to get back to nature, try something new, or are simply wild at heart, Blue Tide Land Based Adventures offers completely land-based incredible angling trips that take place along South Africa’s diverse eastern coastline.

Captain Phil De Jong has been fishing for as long as he can remember. He loves the absolute escapism that land-based angling offers, as well as its ability to transport fishermen of all skill levels to the most remote and pristine locations available to man. On your multi-day trip, he’ll be taking you to the most productive stretch of Hibberdene’s coastline, where you’ll be able to follow the annual sardine run for the chance to hook some special African game fish.

Capt. Phil has carefully selected this destination to provide you with the strongest possible chance of catching unique species that only exist in these waters. This could include local Musselcracker, Kob, Garrick, White Steenbras, and more, as well as world-famous fish such as Giant Trevally and Bonefish. The techniques you’ll be using, as well as the type of bait, have been developed from years of hands-on experience fishing this diverse coastline.

Not only will you be fishing these incredible waters, but you’ll also be able to stay in a local lodge, with all meals, drinks, and amenities provided for you. Capt. Phil knows the best places near this coast, and he’ll arrange everything to ensure that you have somewhere comfortable and relaxing to retreat to after a day of fishing. This includes catering for groups with children aged 12 and above, as well as anglers with physical disabilities.

Your rods, reels, bait, lures, and tackle are included. Join Blue Tide Land Based Adventures and experience the absolute escapism that fishing these waters provides!
