Mighty Fishing Charters
Are you in search of an unforgettable deep sea fishing adventure? Try Mighty Fishing Charters! They are based in Shelly Beach, Margate, and fish from the world-famous Protea Banks. This mesmerizing region is well-known for the quality and quantity of fish that live in these waters. You can catch bottom and game fish all on one trip.
You will fish aboard Mighty I, a 27' Trim Craft with two 200 HP Yamaha outboard engines. The boat is equipped with a GPS and a Lowrance echo sounder, and contains the necessary safety equipment. There's enough room for 10 guests if there are kids onboard, or 8 guests if there are only adults.
You will launch at the best fishing time, which is daybreak, and travel to Protea Banks in only 20 minutes. Once you get there, the possibilities are endless. Depending on the weather and the season you might trawl for game fish such as Tuna, Marlin, Mahi Mahi, Kingfish, and Sailfish, or do bottom fishing for Slinger, Protea Bream, Pink Salmon, Englishman Seabream, Scotsman Seabream, and a variety of Rock Cod.
Mighty Fishing Charters launch from Sonny Evans Small Craft Harbour. The boat is dry-launched into the sea by a special 4 wheel drive tractor. You'll board the craft before launch, meaning you'll stay dry. The crew will provide you with fishing equipment and clean your catch after the trip.
The Mighty crew has experienced deckhands that will assist you whenever you need them. Get a true sense of South African fishing with Mighty Fishing Charters!

Full Day Trip – High Season on November 23, 2024 • 4 adultsI came over from Australia and booked a day's fishing trip for my Dad and brothers, the wind was not in our favour but captain Dawie reassured us that it would be fine and it was an awesome day we caught heaps of quality fish, my Dad is disabled and the crew went out of their way to accommodate my Dad, I would recommend Mighty charters with confidence, when im in South Africa again i will definitely go out with you again, thanks to Dawie and crew for getting us on the fish and filleting our fish.

Full day sharing trawl and bottom on October 6, 2025 • 2 adultsWhat a day!!! Captain Dawie and his crew went out of their way to make this a trip to remember. We caught ALOT of fish on Protea Bank... Yellow Fin Tuna, Yellowtails, Protea Breams and Snappers. I highly recommend Mighty Fishing Charters and will definitely join them again in future :)
Pieter Steyn4.7VerifiedEnthusiastic team
Full day sharing trawl and bottom on June 24, 2024 • 4 adultsOne sometimes assumes the worst when trying a new Charter, because you don't know who you are dealing with, but with the Mighty Charter group that we went out with you can see they enjoy what they do. And boy can they get excited when the fish start jumping and you start getting hits. Good luck for the future guys and I will definitely be using you guys again.

Cornell Van Rensburg5.0VerifiedOctober fishing trip
Full Day Trip – Off season on October 9, 2021 • 9 adults • 4 childrenWhat an awesome day we had! I love people who share my passion for fishing, and the skipper and the deck hand definitely are passionate about fishing. Safety came first, and that was a huge relieve, they ensure that even the kids had fun fishing! And we got the first Dory of the season what a bonus. Thank you Dawie and all the other crew for giving us priceless memories!!! I can recommend this charter to anyone who are passionate about the sea and the fish in it. Will see you again soon
