It seems that there have been some fish around for the last week that I’ve been away…
The couta have also started to make an appearance on the lower South Coast, I’m sure they will be found in the Transkei now.
Richard Pillay managed to land a fifteen kilogram couta on a bonito slide bait from the shore on the weekend.

Lloyd is away on a fishing trip to Santa Maria, he will be back next week but here goes with the fishing report.
A lot of anglers have recently taken to fresh water angling with bass being the target specie.
Mike Laubscher sent in a report about his fishing trip to Jozini and Inanda Dam.
Anglers fishing for natal snoek have had some really good fun.

I’d like to start off with a little appetiser from the weekend; Alain Kahn was fishing off La Mercy beach using his bait boat on Saturday morning.
Also big congratulations to Deon Naidoo from the natal A team, Deon is the first Indian angler to make the protea team.
There are still pompano and bonefish being caught off Sezela area.

It fills me with absolute joy when I come to write the fishing report and there is plenty of action to write about! From couta, to diamond skates, to zambezi’s and more…
Last Friday and Saturday produced quit a few couta and snoek.
There’s been a fair amount of action for the shore anglers… the shad turned on down the South Coast after the south westerly wind came through.
