Hi there,

Going to Clanwilliam this weekend with the kids. No expert but hopefully have most of the gear. Any advice on spots (GPS Co-ords would be awasome), drop offs worth fishing, types of lures/cranks/jigs/worms etc etc would be most appreciated.

Also will the fish be in the shallows or deper down at this time of year?

Fished once before there and as normal my daughter hooked two nice smallies on a June Bug (purple) worm with the curved tail on a texas rig and which seems to never fail her.Taking a boat so should be pretty manouverable,

 

cheers

At dusk and dawn you MUST throw a big chrome Zara Spook parrallelin a rocky looking area.

Green pumpkin stretch 40 grubs on round jigheads will also catch along rocky banks. In the heat of the day go slow and deep.

Chug bugs are a killer there. Last time was even catching good small mouth mid day on top water. Other options - ringworms work great there all year round - black chartruse absolute winner. Also any worms with a good tail action. Plenty rocky crops etc there. How well you know the dam? Dont have the co ordinates but could explain to you. Fish the points as well - very productive. Across from camp site and a bit to the left that bay is a winner - good drop off's there. To be honest you cant go wrong at Clan - fishing is pretty good year round - im jealous to say the least!
