Testimonials
EXCELLENT Based on 121 reviews Posted on Vanessa JahierTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend Clayton enough! He took my son out to some of Cape Town’s most amazing fishing spots and even carp fishing, which he absolutely love. As a parent, what mattered most to me was feeling completely comfortable and safe leaving my son in his care – and I truly did. He made sure everything was well-organised, safe, and fun, creating memories my son will treasure forever. If you’re looking for a fishing guide in Cape Town who combines expertise and genuine passion for the sport, Clayton is the one to book. We’ll definitely be back for another trip !Posted on Coach PaulTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Unforgettable Fishing Trip with Reel Angling Adventures I recently went on a 3-day fishing trip to Arniston with Reel Angling Adventures, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. Clayton, the guide and owner, was outstanding professional, knowledgeable, and always willing to share tips and teach, no matter your experience level. His passion for fishing and the ocean really comes through, and he made sure everyone in the group felt included and confident throughout the trip. I had my heart set on catching a Steenbras, and thanks to Clayton’s guidance, I landed one. The group also had great success with Belman and Blacktail. The whole trip was well-organized, relaxed, and full of great moments. If you're serious about fishing and want to learn from the best, I can’t recommend Reel Angling Adventures enough. I’ll definitely be booking againPosted on Richard Van MoerkerkenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a brilliant day with Clayton , could not of asked for a better guide .Conditions were not great and he tried everything and everywhere for me to land something. I learnt alot with his guidance , I'll be back !!Posted on Clive PringleTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Clayton took my 12-year-old son and I shark fishing. My son has been desperate to catch a shark so this was a birthday present to him. While I thought it would be a chilled day at the beach for myself, it was a day of fun and adventure. We had four lines setup, had loads of bites including a whack of cheeky fish / sharks that stole the bail, hook, line and sinker (pun intended), and we caught two awesome sharks and a ray. The day was a huge success. Clayton’s skill and knowledge is fantastic, and he makes a wonderful guide. You don’t need any experience or skill, but I think even experienced fishermen would learn a thing or two. Highly recommended. We will see you again Clayton! Thanks for the experience!Posted on Danicka Riehl KrugerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When my 12-year-old nephew visited from Germany, we got him straight out with Clayton for a half-day shore fishing intensive. By the end of the session, he’d learned so much about the gear, bait, and techniques that he spent the rest of his trip catching fish on his own. Clayton challenged him to learn as much as possible, and he loved every minute of it! If we’d had more time, we would have booked another session without a doubt. I’m certain his first stop in Cape Town next time will be with Clayton again.Posted on Tommy TownleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you’re travelling to South Africa and want to go fishing I couldn’t recommend Clayton enough. He was quick to respond to my message and any questions I had. It was one of the best days fishing I’ve ever had. Travelling from England I had no clue what to expect but the spots Clayton knows are like no other. One thing people worry about in South Africa is safety. Clayton and his team made me feel at home straight away from the moment I arrived and any concerns I had were quickly put to bed. I couldn’t have felt more safe and confident with Clayton. Especially with his knowledge of the area and all the good spots to fish. This experience was also greatly priced especially compared to others in the Cape Town area. I look forward to returning to Cape Town and going fishing with Clayton and team again!Posted on Laurent GuerinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

His professionalism and knowledge of the marine wildlife in False Bay will inevitably make you want to do it again!Posted on Max MayerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. great tour - great guide! can only recommend the fishing trip with Clayton and his team.
