Gogo, you have no idea how cold it was today but there was a good turnout for the day and we were blessed that it rained till 08:00 and we could do the demo's and Q&A under Gazebos

A few of the people there nailed the Fish and it was a fun day of fish and Friends.

We'll post a few pics a bit later but fish averaged around 700gr

AndriesH's daughter caught a nice Catfish of 3.2kg on a #12 hook

Naruto caught a few guppies. Some of which he kept for Catfish bait for tonight and he kept a low profile until after 17:00 when the money comp began and by the looks of it the feeding spots they were building today are starting to work

Hi Enigma,

I'm green with envy that I could not make it.::cavmn

Like I said already, I just returned from Durban Late on Friday night.

The weather looks right for some big cat fish on a live bait, I bet Naruto will get a screeming reel weak up call at about 01h00.

Yip, reckon a 10-15kg cat is on the cards

4 of the guys kept grassies through the day and rigged them with Circles for the night session.

Some of the guys did some good feeding for bigger carp and it all goes well then a 5kg+ should come out tonight

When I left at 17:00 it was 10 degrees and I reckon a reel run at 03:00 is going to be met with 0 degrees when leaving the tent. Hope it'll be worthwhile

Bernie, our hero and owner of Carpworld Baits.
She brought along several boxes of dips, floaties & others and with Enigma's help, many of us landed fish with some of these.

Craig, deserting his own tackle box to mingle with the rest of us.
Maybe a good thing, he would have cleaned up all the prizes when you consider the enormous amount of information he shared with us, by example too.

Well done guys & to Craig at CDS Angling & Bernie from Carp World baits - thanks for your efforts and your inputs.
I for sure learnt a ton and would like to attend another session - one is too few to cover even the basics.
:wfish
 
Dankie Andries vir die fotos. Lyk of jou dogter jou ore aangesit het ::)
Dan natuurlik baie dankie aan Craig vir sy tyd en vrygewigheid om sy kennis met almal te deel. Sterkte met die karp nationals volgende week. Dankie aan almal wat opgedaag het om die kliniek n sukses te maak. Dalk kan die volgende een meer intens op bait presentation en dip aanwending fokus. Net n voorstel.

@AndriesH,

It looks...cold.

Is it Naruto "cleaning out" the price money or is he dishing them out?

Well done with your daughters cat, as they grow up they improve.

@ JustPlain - sy doen dit gereeld, Pa doen die aas, die ingooi, die poliesman, die duimvashou, die stoel en die glas koeldrank en dan hoor ek hier agter my " dankie Pa" dit was nice van Pa om alles vir my te doen". Dan word die hartjie sag, kry maar ander stokke en WHAM - fish - on.
Voel beter om hulle se Smiles te sien in elk geval.

@ Robert - try again, still not working?
Looks better than the fingerlings I caught - well done.

@ Gogo, Naruto was splitting the prize - he took half with most fish and the other half went to biggest fish.
What gets better? the fish or the daughter - he he he he

The fish.

As they grow they get a boyfriend, stop coming to fish with you because it damages their fingernails and nail polish etc.etc. You are in for it...

Wait and see...feel the pain.
