Put me onto these in Oct 2017 - all sight casting using 10ft rods - trolled around Dassen Island for first hour from about 6am and managed a snoek and 1 other yellowtail and then the birds started working so we chased after them and "hunted tail".  We managed 14 fish that day - 12 of which were all caught spinning...

September there should still be some tail around the island (conditions permitting)

You may have to work for them tho.
