MV ILLUSIONS Fishing Charters

Jane with Wahoo Although we specialise in scuba diving, we have had several groups of fishing-persons having great fun on the boat. Pemba lends itself to good flyfishing and trawling. The Pemba channel, which runs between Pemba and mainland Tanzania, offers some of the best fishing waters off the East African Coast.

The most prevalent species are: Giant and Bluefin kingfish/trevally, Dorado, Skipjack tuna, Mackerel and Barracuda.

We recently explored the waters of Mafia island again. Although the weather wasn't very pleasant, fishing was definitely excellent! This group of South African fishing enthusiasts really showed 'em with 4 Sailfish, lots of Dorado, Wahoo, Giant Trevally, Barracuda and many more.
