You are going to waste your time; the season has come and gone. You will find the odd stump on "The Line"; maybe you can target Cob at night in the same area or you can run to Spreeuwalle in the hope of getting something.

I would prefer to keep hope alive as the baan is always full of surprises but i seriously doubt you going to get tail. Try the line with changing tide, check water temp. Watch the locals

Any luck?

Was an amazing day out there today. The next 2 days does not seem to look as good, especially with the forecasted Northerly moving in.

I've always known these to be a rock cod "klipvis" sounds like it's the afrikaans translation. can I be corrected if I am wrong here? Disclaimer... all these rock cod were released unharmed lol

 

[hootch007]

No problem, makes sense now, rock cod are slightly different, Klipvis are mostly blennies as different species.

mostly South Africans catch the following species defined as rock cod from the shore:

Yellow Belly
Cat Face
White Edge
Yellow Edge

if i have left any out someone can fill it in.

Looks like you had a good day man welldone!
