I have booked a two week holiday at the resort for
- Thread starter Sharky2
- Start date
@Sharky2, it was a dead whole shad. I normally try and catch shad for a session or two until I have my quota and then use them for slides, dead or alive they are the best. Enjoy and hope that Happies will treat you well and that you get your arms stretched! Remember your headlamp for the night action.
Also maybe rig yourself with 440lb steel slides for those perfect nights when you suspect the big nunu's. Got torn to pieces on the initial take on a small shark head bait and 200lb steel. Didn't even pull me at all. just one enormous hit and clean through the steel with one bite! and that is in the gully right infrong of chalets!

ANGLER X, You look and sound like a great fisherman. will you be going back to your holiday spot agian this year? any info for lookout rocks in Plett. lost 3 big duckbills there one year. what do you think of Bonnie throw baits for this area?????
@Ranger Ric
Through how many cobwebs did you have to go to get onto Sealine again!! Great to hear from you! Jip, we are at HW again this year, 7th in a row now! and the little one will feel saltwater for the 1st time!
Nah, can't give you advise on the Duckbills, you taught me how to fish for them! Lol! last time we were there I had to watch you get one after the other! But i think those bonnies and friggates may improve teh chances but then you know how I like the blood! Go put out a shot on Hobby's for me! When are you down there and is boet going along?

hey B, good to hear from you. now that the holiday mood is kicking in it gives me a chance to catch up and see what is happening out there. leave for Plett on Friday for three weeks so most definetly going to have a throw off lookout and maybe robberg point after a good easterly blows for a few days. can't wait to go fas again and feel that line stretch with power. The coastal sealiners dont actually know how we need this break, I cant wait to hop in my car and leave JHB. Enjoy your holiday with the family. God bless
I have never fished in either of the two lagoons on the left. The first lagoon right next to HW is almost 100% fresh water and seldomly if ever opens up to the sea and I have never seen anything in there nor something being caught, I don't think it holds any fish. The second one about a 1km to the left is only a river mouth but the steep dunes keep the waves and tides out of the river mouth so basically also river water and depending on the rainfall can come down stronger or just a trickle.
When will you be down there and have you been there before?

Thank you, this will be my first visit to Little Wanerders. I will be arriving on the 16th and will be leaving on the 27th.
My reason for inquiring about the lagoons is ,my son is 4 years old and I want to take him fishing and obviously fishing from the surf is not possible for a 4 year old.
Will try the lagoons for kurper, who knows.

The surf in front of the chalets have quite a few wavegaricks in the first waves, 15-20m cast while you are on dry sand. Keep that in mind and the rocks on the right have blacktail and karenteen that you can also catch standing on dry sand. maybe you can cast he can hold the rod, quite nice action on very small hooks and squid bait. Took some kids there last year (not 4 years old, yongest was 6) they all casted themselves and between the 4 of them got some 20 plus wavegarrick, blacktails,karenteen (all released to grow big) so they are there. Will you be staying in the caravan park or chalets?
I will be down on the 17th.

For the duckbills at lookout rocks, slide a whole octopus, that's all. By FAR the BEST bait. Big circle through the head. Give enough time before you set the circle.
