Hi there

I will be going to Transkei (Kob Inn) for the first time at the end of April. We will be rock and surf fishing but i will be practicing drop shot as well. This will be my second time drop shotting, so my question to you is: What type of soft baits will you take along to this wonderful destination?? I have 3 types of worms already, but no minnows etc. What types of baits do you think will work best in this area?? Any advice for a rookie will be much appreciated ^^..

Here in EL the mcharty paddle tails work well. Guys have been smashing them in the surf and rivers. Depending on your kit, you can cast a 2once in the surf and a lighter weight in the rivers. The kob inn river does produce nice fish every now and then.
Do your self a favour and go and chat to the guys at the Hotel for more up to date info

hi robert

thanks for the info. i thought paddle tails would be a good idea. will make sure to take a couple along. i will be fishing with a loomis & franklin heavy 8ft dropshot and shimano slade 4000 reel. i only have this kit to work with, so i hope this is good enough. can cast up to 2 oz with it. do you perhaps know who i should speak to at kob inn?? i dont mind phoning them to ask for advice.
