This unfortunately is going to be like pulling teeth.

In the past I remember telling one chap about a dam in the Randburg area that we were having success with and every weekend we would catch a few decent size. Somehow the word got out and now it's like a desert dam. Carp only no Bass left.

Another dam close to Boksburg same story. Quiet dam well stocked off the beaten track now the dam is void of any decent size bass.

It is like a hook and cook gang decended on both.

oh no.
I can relate.i have a secret bass venue close to my campus and i would get good catches there.im trying to keep it secret but i notice more and more people there all the times i fish.
Why do people kill the fish they catch?i know bass tastes great but a fillet of hake is cheaper when comperd to all the tackle costs.
Oh well i suppose secrecy has its merits when the welfare of a water is at stake.
Thanks anyway
