Fresh Water Angling

[Bushcraft]

Fishing in dams around KZN and more recently around JHB has always been part of my life and it’s another great way to experience the outdoors as a family.

Look at Hawkeyes' face!! (That is Hawkeyes in the pale blue?) Nice catch BTW...where was that?

Hey FB

Yip it’s Hawkeyes pulling the face

Caught on a farm just past Ballito

I can’t show you guys my youngest rat with her first fish, because she caught it when she was 3 and before I got there she had loved it rather hard, so there was no release (She even took it into our tent that night)

Great stuff BC, what a way to spend time with the family. There is a small damn just below the stables stocked with bass and when I need time to get my head right, I pop down there and do a bit of spinning. Nowhere near the size of the one in your pic though.
I'm off to Moz on 21st Feb to a place called Canda Island and hope to get into the odd GT, Wahoo and Cuda, we'll see. Oops this is the Fresh water thread.

Canda Island I need to hit the lotto

My cousin just got back from Moz and the GT’s were wild.

A Wahoo would be cool

But they don't live in a dam ,so lets see how sharp the mods are
