Free swimming bait fish means there is no sinker. so nothing to drag along the bottom of the ocean floor nothing to enhance the fight. What we have seen is that they tend to feed and then when something goes wrong, they end up in the shore break and then it is too late. Both garricks on free...

Hey mnr. Im busy with just that, how to do it, what is needed, all the aspects. so putting it all together. leeries.......only the 11kg and 16kg gave a good performance of themselves. but the smaller ones are really poor. even if tackle was "too heavy" one would expect much more from them. but...

yes the mq4000 can work just note that daiwa has now followed the shimano size chart. and a 4000 size reel on a shimano is much smaller then a older daiwa size 4000. the best size to weight ratio would be the daiwa bg 4000. so do a comparison on the sizes. also note, the mq 4000 spool has a...

So i have been free swimming some shad. Its a facet i started liking more and more. There is much more to learn when you compare it to sliding live bait. in any case. This is my 2nd garrick on a free swimming shad. honestly, im not impressed with the garricks. they are poor feeders and poor...

Here is a link to the GT caught by Andre Spies. It was a 19.5kg model. still a great fish. Being his first thay are always special.

Tide table for September 2023

So we had another trip down to st lucia. it was fun as always. had some lekker kob catches, a garrick on a free swimming shad. shad were not thick in the area we fished. Patric Ellis got a big GT of 48,9kg, when it was not returned to the ocean is not clear. the fight did last around 2 hours...

Hey ou maat, great om te sien jys nog hier. ek was absent for a while. het nou ander planne en hoop alles werk uit. dan moet julle weet, die pics gaan dik wees.

when in trouble, electric is much faster than rope starting. but having a rope starting back up system is priceless.

So is kite angling then also illegal? Its up to them to prove that kite angling or a pressurized cannon which assists in placing the bait is not legal. Its the frustration with the paperwork should they decide to take matters further. we know drones are completely out. but the above methods...

since when do sardines eat sprats?

boat trips...... and beach fishing:

earlier pictures: all caught since beginning of July 2023 at st lucia

Well, lets look at some pictures: these are from the newest backwards as i need to do some updates. So my son is currently at St Lucia. Shad are coming out in numbers. Garrick and salmon are being caught everyday. This is all in the last 5 days of fishing 6 August till now 11 august 2023. its...

Its been a while, but having a tread with no real answers does cause the topic to stay open. The st lucia moutn is still open. Due to this, there is no fixed launch site. At times, boats are launched from the estuary mouth. so boats are pushed into the estuary channel and they then proceed to...

Time for a update on this tread. Its been a while since i logged in and i need to get around the new software program for Sealine. Many things has happened since my last log in. many fishing trips have come and gone. St Lucia is still there. Its still the safest place to fish in South Africa...

I have been fishing for quite some time, lol. Ive got the T-shirt, so thought and then i lost it, that i know now. The past 28 years of fishing has placed smiles on my faces and also caused so much frustration that i wanted to give up. To blame netting, water spilling, elnino, lanino on it is...

Yello everyone. It has been in my head and mind, to look at the possibility, in taking other anglers based in Gauteng on fishing trips down to St. Lucia KZN North Coast South Africa. It will be more a past time thing, then trying at making a living out of it, life is just too expensive...
