If they built a wall around it now where / how do you think the immigrants will reach the water (to drink and wash - bath)?

At the spot where you park the car and get the boat in the water......

that place is now useless for fishing

Good question, has anyone been there lately. I drove past there today to have a look. I have the phone number of the developers was thinking of giving them a call to find out wats going on. Doesnt seem like a very safe venue at all, but might be worth it if in a big group. What i really dont understand is how they can apparently charge R100 for entrance to that place.. completely crazy, but i'll still prolly give it a go once or twice if i get the chance. Could someone please give us some updated info on the venue?

Fishing has gone down for some bizzarre reason ? I live close by and pop in from time to time but is actually looking for another venue.

I have also noticed that there is a nile croc living there now, still small but worrysome. I suspect the owner had it introduced to scare off the "locals" :shark

Haha, that kind of seems contradictory to allowing fishing?

I live just up the road from the quarry in Rigel ave... Would like to go there sometime but if the fishing is down and its still that unreasonible price i dont know?

Might just have to spend my extra time at struben fishing, NOT catching. Ever. :(

Quarry's not worth it anymore to me, too pricy, shoddy fishing and security is becoming a serious threat.

I hear Renosterkop's cooking right now, anyone been out there lately?

No,  this is a local croc and accordingly you are not allowed to own one whatsoever. You will also get jail time if caught selling one.

I suspect someone caught him when he was quite a bit smaller. The locals there reckon he has been there for 8 months, I only saw him for the first time about 4 weeks ago, when he grabbed my crazy crawler, Since then i found his lair and see him quite frequently.

matched his patterns on the web and he is a nile croc - one of the potentially biggest species of crocs you get and what is worse, they will grow like crazy. I can only imagine what damage he would do to spawning fish is such a small area.

Well then we need to alert authorities about it so that it can be removed. It could cause some series problems in the future

It is of the size where I would be able to catch it, I did twice but lost it in the reeds - Plan is to release it in rietvlei (there is crocs already) Or at monument park golf club, he he
