Fisher hawen.

[da feesh man]

What happened here? As far as I know it was a good place to fish up until 2009 is the fishing still worth it or is there better destinations close to northern suburbs? With it being winter and all where would be a good place to go? ps. my pb was caught in winter at doordekraal when the reeds was not al over the place. But since all the residents blamed us fishermen for smoking pot on the dam wall and you need to have a permit, that I am sure does not exists, its not nice to fish there anymore.

Seriously do non of you know what happened there, and do non of you want to give a starting fisherman some advice?

Firstly, There is still bass in fisherhaven. You would pay R40 to the farmer when he comes down to check.

Secondly, Doordekraal is closed during the winter months. A permit is required during the open season. All the details is on the Board at doordekraal.

Thirdly, Welcome to bass fishing and I hope you having a awesome time catching these green/brown buggers.

Remember catch and release plz

Thanks for the replies. I catch fish in saltwater that I keep I wont easily eat bass, one time i smoked it and it was really nice but it is way to much effort. Can anyone suggest any other good spots? Do anyone have a good bait-caster for me to buy? Is shimano cromica a good reel?
