Great day out today with Salt life charters. They go the extra mile to make the day one to remember. Thanks Justin and team. You'll see me again.
My family and I traveled from England and joined Justin and Marco from Salt Life Fishing for a morning trip in Mossel Bay. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. Both Justin and Marco were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and true experts in the area.We were thrilled to catch two kabeljou weighing 16.1kg and 18.58kg, the largest fish weโve ever caught! Along with several smaller fish and plenty of small sharks, it was an unforgettable and exciting morning.We also enjoyed a quick visit to Seal Island, which added to the overall experience. The boat was well-equipped, and Justin ensured our comfort throughout the trip, looking after our little one when he wasn't feeling well.We couldnโt have asked for a better experience and highly recommend Salt Life Fishing for a fantastic day in Mossel Bay. Weโll definitely be back on our next visit!
Absolutely great. We were always kept informed, prior to and during the trip. The fishing was great and we all enjoyed it. Thanks again Justin.
What a fantastic day!! Today needs a SIX STAR rating. Thank you Justin McCarthy for another awesome fishing trip. We will be back for more very soon... Thank you so much Martin Wissekerke
Was awesome! We were able to book the trip the night before and get on the boat the next morning. The team welcomed us warmly and provided everything. They knew where to catch the fish and caught 38 bonitos within two hours. Everything at a fair price!
By far the best fishing experience that I've ever had! Very friendly and willing Captain! Highest recommendation possible!!
Thank you Justin, it was an incredibly nice and successful experience with you,You guys are Great!!! 10 out of 10
There are lots of deep sea fishing outfits to choose from at Mosselbay - I can confirm that Salt Life was a GREAT choice. The guys were great. Super knowledgeable, fun to be with and all round awesome. Our group caught loads of fish. Honestly cannot recommend them enough.
YouTube Channel: Outdoors with TravisFrom organising a trip for us within 24 hours with the utmost professionalism and care, to executing a plentiful catch of fish the morning of.Justin "owner of Salt Life" and his team took me and my godson of 8 years old under their wing of care and delivered the most amazing fishing experience.Where most other charters had no fish for the day, we caught over 25 eatable fish and kept only the best to take home to the family.I donโt only recommend Salt Life but swear by them.Looking forward to sharing our video of the day on YouTube and May Salt Life have a prosperous 2024!!Thank you
Awesome ..!! Loads of fish.Great family experience!!!Will do it any time again. Soon I hope.Thank you so much to Justin and Marco.
First time deep sea fishing! Salt life team made it an awesome trip. Father and son fishing. Some decent take homes and some hefty sharks biting
Amazing day out with Justin and Esther. So professional and knew all the great spots. If you looking for a charter for the day, don't bother with anyone else. SALT LIFE FISHING CHARTERS should be your only choice.
Reasons to get on the water at 05:30hrs.. Dolphins, Whales, Seals, a penguin and some of the best fishing I've ever had. Pulling in a 14.8kg Kob was the highlight of the trip, but then to make it even better he organized a "Braai" at a local restaurant for us to eat. It doesn't get better. Mossel Bay, my new favourite place
We had an amazing experience with Salt Life Fishing Charters! Justin, the owner, went above and beyond to arrange a fantastic trip for my family. Marco, our guide, was knowledgeable and took us to great fishing spots. We caught plenty of fish to take home, and even though we had to release some small ones, it was still a memorable and fun day on the water. Thanks, Salt Life Fishing Charters, for a wonderful adventure!
My brother Justin and I have been fishing together from a very young age. Our passion for fishing was instilled by our Oupie Piet, whom himself was a keen fisherman. Justin is one amazing skipper who always puts your safety first and knows the ocean like the back of his hand and you will not be dissapointed with the catch you bring home. Justin comes highly recommended
This is my favorite fishing charter ever! I have booked with Salt Life twice in the three months Iโve been here. Both times I have had incredible fishing and awesome wildlife encounters. We saw albatross, whales, dolphins, and a sea turtle while bringing home kob and Red Romans to braai! I will absolutely go with them again.
Great experience, Justin the skipper knows his stuff and made everything easy and fun, would definitely recommend and will be on board again!
We had the best day out with Justin! From knowing where the bite was to all the wildlife we saw, this charter was all around the best Iโve been on. Iโve been twice now and will absolutely book again! Thanks Justin!
My son and I had the most amazing fishing trip with Salt Life Charters this morning. The skipper, Justin, had us on the fish from the very first anchor. My son loved every minute of the experience and they will definitely see us again soon. Fish for dinner tonight. Thanks guys 🙏🙏
Justin is one amazing Skipper with an immense knowledge of the Ocean. He always puts your safety first and for someone with no fishing experience, he is definitely the one to show you how.
THE only fishing charter company in Mossel Bay !Friendly and helpful crew, all equipment in excellent order and the skipper knows his fishing spots, never go home empty handed. 100% recommended.
I had the opportunity to partake in a fishing expedition with Salt Life Fishing Charters and I must express that it was an outstanding experience from beginning to end. As a passionate angler, I have had the pleasure of experiencing numerous charter companies. However, I must say that this particular one truly distinguishes itself from the rest. The trip was flawlessly executed, thanks to the professional and accommodating staff who left no stone unturned. Justin stands out for his commitment to marine conservation. He taught us about ethical fishing techniques, stressing the value of catch-and-release fishing when it was suitable and following size and bag limitations to protect the ecology. Everyone on board developed a feeling of duty and respect for nature as a result of his infectious enthusiasm for conserving the maritime environment.
For the past two months I have been fortunate enough to join Salt Life Fishing Charters on multiple adventures. Salt Life employees are professional and extremely knowledgeable about our marine ecosystems.Marco or "Fish" as we like to call our skipper- loads of help and makes our trips even more fun. I would definitely recommend Salt Life to anyone who is keen for a day at sea catching sustainable fish.
I had the best time on each fishing trip I went on with Salt Life! Fish is the coolest skipper in the world!!
Amazing fishing charter, Marco was an amazing guide bringing us to great fishing spots. It was a great experience and I highly recommend booking with them.
What a fantastic trip with Justin and Salt Life. We caught a variety of fish from Red Stumpnose, Red Roman to Santers and Cob, plus a number of different sharks (which were all released). What a fantastic experience!
This experience was amazing! The day was beautiful, and we saw some whales and two albatross. We caught fish we were able to braii and the skipper Justin for salt life fishing charters made it such a fun time! Highly recommend!
