Lagoon.
The much awaited Grunter run is here, nice size fish were caught all
over the river and lots of them. I Malabar Rockcod was caught off about 2kg,
nice size on light tackle. Judging by the sales of lures over the weekend it
seems as those are working and catches of King fish are ben made, the water has
defiantly warmed up and is over 22 deg some places higher. Very big crabs are
being caught and so long as you have a license you may catch 3 per day with a
rod and line but not by any other means.
Surf.
Was tough going due to the high seas and windy conditions, catches of
Shad and small sharks were made but to be fair to the non ed guys sliding big
baits was not going to happen.
Ski Boat.
If ever this was a long weekend of river or harbor fishing, pity as at
one stage the water looked good but for the rest of the time the sea was
covered in white horses.
News from the Shop.
We got Natal Red Eye in stock after a 2 month absence, they are in
packets of 3. Also just in is very fresh Mackerel.
