The South African Marlin and Tuna (SAMT) is the modern version of the South African Marlin and Tuna Club (SAMTC) which is amongst the oldest and most prestigious fishing organisations in South Africa. We operate out of False Bay Yacht Club (FBYC), Simons Town. The Fishing Club and Yacht Club amalgamated some years ago and have developed a stunning marina complex designed specifically to support the needs of recreational and competitive fishermen and yachtsmen.

The SAMT caters for both the recreational and competitive anglers needs. Members will enjoy social fishing competitions, regular talks from conservation experts and specialists in different fishing techniques, active participation in the Western Province Inshore and Offshore leagues, monthly steak evenings and much more.

The SAMT provides it's members and visiting guests with access to IGFA / Province verified scales and weighing facilities. This is to ensure that when you catch that World Record / Personal Best then there can no question as to the accuracy of your claim. Also available are the offloading and weighing facilities offered by Simons Town municipal jetty and crane which can be utilised to weigh particularly big fish.
