The waters off the South Coast of Kwazulu Natal provide rich pickings as the migrating game fish arrive.

By keeping on the move, they are finally rewarded.

The changeable microclimate around Richards Bay means that Mark De La Hey has to change plans, but fortunately there is enough sheltered water to provide a day's entertainment, surface lures and poppers attract the Yellowfin Tuna and then with live bait he targets Garrick.

Mark and the guys are in Mozambique where the annual migration of black marlin to their spawning grounds brings in many other apex predators. In this episode, Mark is targetting big sharks and soon finds a grey shark before getting into a huge hammerhead. Maintaining a good supply of live bait is crucial to keeping the action going, especially when you have several large Zambezi (Bull) sharks around the boat. Later in the show, Mark targets sharks from the shore and discusses techniques to hook and land them.

In this episode Mark discusses the rigs and knots he likes to use to when fishing for deep water big game fish such as marlin, wahoo, queen mackerel, tuna and marlin before tackling a sand shark from the shore.

Mark discusses the importance of maximising fishing activity in weather windows as he heads out from Shelly Beach in changeable conditions.  Despite the high winds, the guys use the sonar to find fish and then by using a  burly trail, drift over them hooking into some nice yellowfin tuna before Mark catches a fantastic Green Jobfish. After returning to shore they head up to Durban making an early start as they head out again using livebait to tempt some bigger fish.
