Basil Manning Fishing Equipment was founded in the early 1960s in Durban, South Africa, by Basil Manning, who was a Springbok angler. The business was bought by Barry Wareham and Barry Rebeck in 1991, both of whom represented South Africa as Springbok and Protea anglers. In 2007, Barry Rebeck sold his shares and has been owned by the Wareham family since then. Barry’s son, Blayne, also got his Protea colours as an U21 angler and is currently very involved in competitive angling. Both Barry and Blayne have travelled extensively fishing in many different facets. These are people who live and breathe fishing! With years of experience, our team offers expert advice on fishing, angling destinations, and the latest products, ensuring we meet the needs of every angler.
At Basil Manning, we cater to all types of fishing enthusiasts. Whether you’re into saltwater angling (estuary, bays, surf, rocks, kayaks, in-shore, off-shore, deep-sea, big-game), freshwater fishing (dams, rivers, lakes), or fly fishing in both salt and freshwater, we have you covered.
