It seems Leon Bekker's sentencing has done nothing to deter ego-anglers from targeting Great Whites. These two heroes, Nico Munro and John Winter of Mossel Bay apparently have no regard for the protected, no fish status of these shark. And the fact that they are using not only one but two...

Ezemvelo has offered to meet with all that are interested in voicing their concern regarding the Vetches Seinne netters and poaching issues. Guys, this is it, it's the first step toward cleaning things up. It MUST be well supported, if you have concerns, please attend it. If you want to...

Guys, who would support the enforcement of a strictly catch and release policy at Sandvlei? I realise that not everyone will obide by it, but let's be honest, only a moron would actually eat a Sandvlei Leerie anyway. Catch and release is getting more and more popular and I can only imagine what...
