Hi chaps I am wanting to start a thread for East

[robert.venter]

Had a lekka fishing trip on Sat Morning at Cintsa West. Launched a bit late (10am), but that did not deter the fishing. Managed to land a lekka +-6.5Kg Poensie and lunch was served.
Went out Yesterday off Gonubie point. Launched at 13:00, hooked one small poensie and one of +- 5kg. Both released with a smile. Spotted a nice size shark swimming around, but moved on its own way. Great fun out on the Slummies Coast line.

Not bad see you on the water some time.

Hey

Anyone keen for an early paddle on Sat. I have to be off the water by 09:00, so it will be an early launch to get some action. Will be launching from Gonubs beach

Hey chaps

Rory and I are planning a trip to Cefani on Saturday morning - weather dependant if anyone is keen.

 

[robert.venter]

Sorry i am out, got the Gonubie festival on this weekend!
Are you fishing river or sea?

 

[getafix]

More than likely sea

 

[robert.venter]

Very Nice, I heard a Oke caught a 38.2kg copper in 14m of water in that bay two weeks ago, so they are there. Good Luck!

 

[getafix]

mmmm, now that sounds like fun.

So far, the weather is looking promising

 

[RoryC]

Bringing out the 12/0's for those coppers :spite

 

[getafix]

Oh well, looks like tomorrow weather is not looking great. At least we need the rain.

 

[Hylton]

Rory, did you manage to get out over the weekend? Well more to the point did anyone?
I paddled in the wind from Cintsa on Sunday. Generally stayed shallow as the current and the wind were doing different things.
Managed some small poensies an roman as well as two yellow bellies.
First time I have been out in months and likely to be the first for a while. 7 Months work in Lesotho from some time in the next two weeks.

Hi guys...

I'm hoping the weather will be good this weekend... keen to launch at kwelega and try a few spots. A 38kg copper would be nice, got my 8/0 ready

 

[RoryC]

Hey Hylton - no we chickened out based on the weather report on friday - should have made an attempt as sat mornings sea looked ok... taking windguru off my favorites as we speak!

 

[robert.venter]

[robert.venter]

I reckon we hit Cintsa West, as there are some nice reefs for black steenbras and Red roman

I'm gonna be launching from kwelega mouth on the high tide (6.30am) and moving over to cintsa bay and thats exactly what I'll be targeting. Apparently Kwelega ski boat club are having a compo so there will be quite a few guys out there.

 

[robert.venter]

Maybe I will join you from that side, See you there

 

[ShaneW]

Cool... I'm not brave enough to be on a ski though, I'll be in my rubber duckie

I'll keep an eye out and say howzit !
