Howzit guys!!

I'm going fishing this weekend at Boschkop Vaal Dam.

Any tips you guys can give me? Exept for rain jacket. Doesn't look like the weather wants to play along this weekend.

Do a search. A lot has been said on this location. Try search aqua-via and steyns as well. Same area.

I'll try a search. Thanks for the help.

Been there 2 weeks ago, caught some big carps and yellows, used FX Snottys and dipped in perdeby wih dough backing was awesome.

Also carry some Garlic Floaties with garlic dip.

All the luck also note that at boschkop first cast about three mieliebombs let it land and reel your line in that will make a good feeding spot, mix mielie bomb with garlic dips it seems to call the fish, once you have your spot made just cast there happy fishing oh and the weather is not gonna be dat good.

I'll definitly do that thanks.

I saw the weather won't be to good , but as long as the fishing goes well , all will be well. Otherwise I must just stock up with enough OBS.

Thanks for the report. Light showers is still ok. I'm not to sure about that cold front though.

I'll let you guys know how it went on Monday if I'm not in hospital with longontsteking......

My Buddies are at Steyns at the moment, called them now they say that it is as hot as desert there, but that was after they finished 6 bottles klippies at 12:00pm today.

So yah i think klippies can influence the weather

I am also going to the Vaal. Will be fishing Ardenza/Jokkie Nel. Had a lot of action there last time round. hopefully the bigger carp will be start coming out. I know patience will be key during the colder days.

LOL!! That's the way to go. My KWV Brandy (Koos wye voete) is already waiting for me.

Hopefully the catch will be good. Would like to get a few nice carbs out.

Does Bochkop have chalets

 

[Sukkel maar]

Where is this Ardenza/Jokkie Nel? Never heard of it. How is this place?

 

[Sukkel maar]

I even bought spare batteries , so those fish better put up a big smile....

They don't really have chalets. It's more like a container room. Not bad though , but it's far from the water. I prefer my tent to chalets in anycase. The ablution block is very , very neat.

 

[MielieBomb]

I wonder if there is any places on the Vaal with chalets and good fishing

 

[Sukkel maar]

I really don't have an idea. We useually go to Jim Fouche if we want to go in chalets and fish. They have these little fisherman's huts right at the water aswell , but most of the time we go in tents. Chalets is just better during the winter , but in summer tents are the best.
