The Reel Africa team head to Vilanculos in Mozambique meeting up with fishing guide, Morgan O'Kennedy from Big Blue Adventures to target the elusive African Pompano. These fish are widely known as the 'tastiest fish in the ocean' but they aren't the only fish around in this thriving ecosystem and after catching a nice live bait, Wesley casts out beyond the surf looking for Giant Trevally. Things are a little quiet in the heat of the day but in late afternoon, the fish switch on and Wesley catches something unusual and quite striking, a Potato Bass, before landing a beautifully coloured, Speckled Snapper. Fishing into the night, Wesley hooks up another hard fighting Speckled Snapper which really doesn't want to leave the reef. Day 2 and Wesley starts by lure fishing for Green Spot Trevally which dwarf in comparison to their Giant cousins but also put up a great fight. Meanwhile, Morgan is determined to catch a Southern Pompano and persists with his bait setup of sea lice. This is Mozambique fishing at its finest with a variety of stunning species that can be caught on various methods and a stunning vista guaranteed every day.
