i was there last friday tot saterday afternoon with my sons and fished the left bank ( to the left of the ablution around the bay) and fishing was poor

it was my first visit and only one small karb caught although lots of muddies and grass karb

maybe due to my first outing my knowledge also a bit scarse but lots of people on the bank caught the same as we did

my sons used ghe whole range of dips, so any advice for future outings also welcome

Hi jannie

I'm no expert at boschkop but I wouldn't fish that bay, rather go to the right of ablutions or even extreme left.

I'm sure it must have been full that's why you fished there. I also know that to get decent fish means taking your lines deep in.

So fishing wasn't great lots of little fish (less the 150g)
it seemed everyone was having the same issue except one person from my club who managed +-30 fish most around the kg mark with biggest carp been +-3kgs. also lots of little yellows.

I managed to land 10 with 6 been small lost 3 including a large carp when the 2nd hook got caught on the scoop net. did see a guy next to me pull out a +-5kg mirror carp but other was only small fish as well. he caught it on FX floaties and looti on the bomb. he used a long No2 hook and put about 15 floaties on it.

Most people were getting bites on FX, vaal dam, almond and banana. mostly single floaties or floatie backed with plain dough.

my next comp is at Aqua Via on the weekend of the 7/8 of Feb any advise would be appreciated

Hi Thank you for the feedback. I have had most luck to the right of the bay.
