Hi guys
I moved to Mossel bay a year ago and im struggling to find good bass fishing spots for the odd fresh water trip.
im visiting groeinvlei dam this weekend, see theres some posts about good fishing there...........any other suggestions for bass fishing in and around Mossel bay?

Hi

Groenvlei would be the best publically accessible venue.

The Garden Route and Hartbeekuil Dams have bass, but the fishing is poor.

There are lots of good farm dams in the Geelhoutboom area, but you need to know the farmers to get access.

George Dam itself

Olifants river in Oudtshoorn, Braam Raubenheimer dam on the way out to Cango and Stompdrift at de Rust

The "Zebra" farms between between George and Oudtshoorn have good bass and rainbows

Almost all the small farm dams between Mosselbay and George (but make sure to get permission from the owner first)

I've caught bass in all these dams and my PB from Stompdrift was a 4.1kg and I got a 2.8kg Smallie in the Olifants in Oudtshoorn

Believe it or not I actually caught a Bass in Island Lake (Wilderness) while topwater fishing for Garrick
