I arrived at Venties (Inanda Dam) this morning to find Keith, and his guest for the day, John, targeting some off shore timber, already marked with a buoy.
After a brief greeting and introduction I could hear the chaps were in good spirit. I heard Keith mention to John that he had just spotted a good fish on the Lowrance, John replied with “Don’t worry I’ll reel him in …†As I was having a little chuckle to myself I saw John set the hook on what seemed to either be the tree itself … or a really good fish.
After a bit of dodging the main motor and trolling motor, John guided it straight into the waiting net – it was a goodie, and weighed in at 3.9kg’s!
Well done John, what a great fish to catch.
Here is a short video ...
