Lagoon.
Diamonds are in
the lagoon and they can be caught from the car parks to the river month if you
are fishing with light tackle and you get picked up try bust off as soon as
possible as it is not necessary to have these fishing trailing 200m of line
while they trying to dislodge the hook, it will also help to squash the barbs,
you will not lose your fish overseas barbed hooks are already banned and it is
not long and we will follow suit.
Surf.
It was a funny
week species wise , Kob , Snapper Kob, Shad, Sea Barbell, Spinners , Lessors
Sand Sharks, Spinner Sharks, Spotted Grunter and Spotted Pompano but no big non
eds we even droned baits from 170m to 340m juicy Bonnies but not a sniff. We
fished the banks yesterday for nearly 4 hrs and Jan got 4 fish the other 3 of
us blanked , highlights was Ruddi get washed down the gully and my mother
of a overwind. With the Diamonds coming
into the lagoon it will not be long and they will be in the surf zone, the
Zambies will follow. On Tuesday morning session we had 11 rods out and one
Spinner yet on Monday some of the guys got 6 species in the same spot. Shangri
La beach and Mboyeni fished well during the week with the main fish been
targeted being the big Shad and Kob.
