Midmar has been known to give up some monster Bass every now and again ...

The latest is this one of 6.31kg caught by PMB businessman Lolly Niemack on 20 October 2013! The lure was "a slow moving plastic bait".

This one had already spawned - check out the stomach ... So imagine what she would have weighed just before spawning!

Wow!!! Thats gotta be one of the biggest bass ever caught in SA waters. What is the SA record anyway? This beauty has got to be close.

The new official South African Record Bass of 6.45kg (14.19lb) was caught by August Lignau in Bloemhoek Dam, Free State Province in late spring 2012! (see pic below)

The former official South African Record Bass of 6.29kg (13.84lb) was caught by Julian van Zuydam also at Midmar Dam, KwaZulu-Natal on Friday 24 September 2004.

There are talks of another 6+kg caught at Roodekopjes. I wouldn't be surprised if the SA record gets broken again.:fishn
