Seems like a very nice place. Does the waters hold bass?

Seems like you guys had a bol.

Was all fish released?

Got there friday afternoon, casted some feed out at 60m to get a spot going. Started to fish at 5. Fishing was slow the whole weekend, caught 8 carp and 4 barber one weighing in at 3 kg. Seem that the feeding spot worked since the other anglers only caught about 4 fish. Caught carp on dough and baber on worms. Rod stood for about 3 hours for a run.

Most of the carp came out on saturday morning between 6am and 12 in the afternoon. All caught on a sweet dough and some with dip on the ball .Dips were all sweet such as almond supreme, Has been, lootie,vaaldam etc. NO kurper or bass were caught only carp and baber.

Hi All 

Went to roodeplaat (hengelaarsvriend area) on Sunday (21-02-10). Arrived there at 8am and my line was in at 8:30. Only spot available was at pen 11. Got 3 fish for the day, all fish came out between 8:30 and 11am. The weather conditions: 28-30 degrees, partly cloudy and a slight breeze that came up now and then.   

There was a lot of people at the old NtV are as well. Only so 3 other fish that was caught by other anglers on both sides and a few that got away. People 2 pens away caught 2 carp (2.5Kg) during the night, nothing during the day.  

It looks like the carp is biting at night and early morning. 

So 1 Bass and a few vlei kurper, water was covered with small floating green stuff from bank to 6m in.     

My biggest was a 1kg carp, the other 500g & 250g. 

Bait used:[/b] (sliding ritvlei was used, distance 45 – 70m, anything from 90m and up waited 3+ ours for a bite)  

1)      Top hook soft flotie dipped in special, bottom hook worms with foreseen backing and FX/Triple D on BOM. The 1kg and 250g was caught on the soft flotie.  

2)      Top hook Stevenson flotie dipped in bunspice , bottom hook plan SWD and FX/Vrystaat on the BOM . The 500g was caught on the plan SWD. 

Vrystaat from Supercast = smells like passion fruit
Special from Supercast = smells like soft spearmint/wintergreen

 Hope this helps anyone.
