Game Fishing Angola was founded by brothers Cam and Iain Nicolson who have lived in Angola for over 50 years, and is run by Cam Nicolson. We have fished for billfish off Angola for over 30 years and pioneered Blue Marlin fishing here back in the late 1980's. Over the years we have also introduced most of the techniques used by local boats and have kept up with trends used in other fisheries, adapting them to our own where possible.

Our fishing team, The Marlinheiros, has won many tournaments and championships over this time. We have fished in various locations worldwide and over time added the things we have learned from others to our own fishing techniques. We have been involved in the capture of dozens of IGFA world records off Angola for a wide range of species from Barracuda to Sailfish.

What We Offer
Our knowledge of the billfish fishery off Angola, is second to none. We now offer anglers the opportunity to fish these lightly fished waters with us, on a fully equipped sport fishing boat, with top quality tackle and equipment. Whether you want to fish 130lb chair tackle or bait & switch stand-up for big Blue Marlin, light tackle for Sailfish, pursue IGFA records or fly fishing for Sailfish we can accommodate your needs.
Your charter includes everything and there are no additional costs. If you prefer you can use your own tackle; just let us know what you require!

Like many anglers we were bitten by the fishing bug as young kids fishing with our Dad and Grandad. We'd fish anywhere we could: rivers, lakes or the sea - wherever we might find a fish! We have been so lucky to have grown up in Angola and been able to fish these waters for 3 decades, during times when it was so difficult for visitors to get into the country. We are both British and long term residents in Angola. Cam is a marine mechanic by profession and Iain was a microbiologist. Fishing for billfish is our passion, but we are also keen on other species in particular Giant African Threadfin and Tarpon.
