Hi Jughead....I hear you abt being hooked...it's addictive & contagous LOL! If Im fishing the river, I usually go below Barrage, just below the wall there's a place called Erina Spa. A bit further down there's also Wesvaal resort, which delivered some biggies (2 -4kg) last time I was there. Bite tempo was slow though & I lost alot of traces, at both these venues. Abramsrustoord (upstream from barrage) delivered some catches when I was last there, but their prices became too ridiculous, but a nice bank & nice for the kids.
If Im fishing the Dam, there are lots of venues too choose from - UJ, Bosckop, Vaalview...
