What happened?

Guys
We caught and caught and when we were drowining in them green thangs we caught sum more, seriously, we stopped counting.
So who went? Well, the Pig drank well, like a PIG the night B4 and couldn't go on Friday, and also he didn't sleep properly as they were rudely awaken by a couple of affirmative shoppers somewhere between 01:30 and 04:00 on Friday morning. This and some other fading out incidences led to Johanvc, The Kid and myself being the only attendees 4 the hunt.
Had a great day and two heart attacks. Hooked into a smallish LGF (about 400g - 500g's) and played that around when a MUNSTA decided that its time to feed. Now here's the first Heart Attack, this rather Large GF (approx 3kg's +) chomps down on this hooked small LGF twice, each time causing some rithmic interruptions in my cardiac engine, but alas the baitfish she was toooooooooooo beeeeeg for the MUNSTA, and the latter swam off into the depths.
We continued landing and daducky-ing serious ammounts of these greenies, Johanvc, way more than myself, he was going at a rate of about three fish to one, and the kid, who we left on the banks, claimed the same results.
I did however, manage to obtain a second heart attack as another 3kg something green thang acted the same when I had another, this time a much smaller LGF hooked, swam around a couple of times, but took too long to strike so he ended up losing his lunch to my new PB, which slammed the little fish and headed for the very close by reeds straight underneath daducky, had a good and frightning fight, worried about the line strength and the imminant losing of this MUNSTA to the reeds. Thankfully, a calm approach saw me daduckying this my new PB, which after weighing in at 2,24kg's was carefully photographed and released so we can return and if not getting the larger ones, then hopefuly this 2,24kg with an obesity problem next time round. (Pic's to follow, as Johanvc still needs to forward them to me).
All that is left to say from my side, is this, THOSE of you that didn't go or couldn't go, well you missed out on an Extremely great day, thanks to Johanvc for joining and making it such a pleasant day, same goes for The Kid.

Well like LGF said. We were drowning in these fish. At one stage for about 30min I was in to a fish every cast. If I had to take the complete total of all 3 of us that were there we surely broke the 250+ mark with fish that came out. Some rats and some decent keepers. With my biggest only being a 1kg taken under a jetty and a monster slamming a rat also taken under the jetty but snapped me clean of on 10lb line and totally destroying my spinning rod. But we did not even see one fish over 3.5kg’s. There was the one that slammed LGF and then two other. The rest were all hiding deep in the structure or they were deep down.
My tack ticks totally changed on our arrival with loads of cloud cover and some wind. So from going to my original plan on using weightless plastics I changed to a drop shot and did that pay off.
But here is LGF’s new PB and well done mate. Next time it’s a 4kg. But just a correction. She weighed in at 2.26kg

how has fishing been since 2007 there, are you still only allowed during the week

Fishing there is always good, Very Good, sometimes just good, but nonetheless.
They changed their tiems and the likes, here's the latest:
you can only fish from Wednesday onwards, but fret not, cause now you can fish on weekends too with some restrictions on the weekend days. They only allow ten ten fisho's on weekends and the other restriction is that it has to be from a boat on weekends. During the week, these restrictions do not apply.
Winter might also see some of these restrictions relaxed as they are only impossed to accomodate the divers, so if there aren't that many of them then they will allow fishing from the bank, something you will establish when making your reservation just before 16:00 on a Thursday as that is the cut-off time for divers to make bookings. So if by the time you make a booking for the weekend at the mentioned time and they confirm that there would not be as many if any divers then You willo be allowed to fish from the banks, just confirm when making a booking.
Fee's are R55 entrance/day (payable even if you don't go out and and there for say two days, you'll pay R110), then there is the R100/day fishing permit per angler and the R300 rand deposit (latter is refundable if you don't take fish home).
Hope this helps a bit.
