Hiya guys

 

You right mate, i'm not married ey and not so sure that i ever will. My boss / workplace i enjoy very much ( i don't really get to fish every weekend - i just try my best to get away during Oct - Dec )

 

Anyways, i left Pretoria at about 6' o clock Saterday morning and reached my favourite fishing spot 80km other side of Witbank at about 9' o clock. There was nobody at the dam thus making it my favourite dam.

 

I fished for about 3 - 4 hours and then gave it a rest for the time beeing, at about 16:30 i picked up the lines again and i got my first and only large mouth that i recon weighed about 800 g.

 

I will download the pic tomorrow.

You could see the fish all spawning and very exited about the humping sesions. It was a beautifull day and i had plenty of fun. That dam has plenty plenty fish!! I will be going there in 3 weeks time! When i get back from there in 3 weeks you will see some niiiiiiiice pic's.

Hey there,

 

Try Bubble Gum colour trick worms and Squirell Tail worms. It is cold at the moment so the fish there will also be a bit shy. Rig them on a shaky head or on drop shot with a small 2.0 hook.  Try the point just as the dam bends to the right. Good luck!

Dark colors, water is dirty! Fish are slow even when it is warm :) There are some nice lunkers in those waters you just need to get them out. Also try a Dark Blue junebug Jig fish slowly. I enjoy that little dam when I go down to visit.
