having moved to Scottburgh from PE 4 months ago, I am battling to find any regular fishing buddies. Mostly I end up fishing alone and know full well how stupid and dangerous that is. However, once bitten, it is hard to stay off the sea despite the large number of resident tax officals in the water.

I am moving to Amamzimtoti shortly and am looking for any regulars from Pennington to Durban north for fishing on Saturdays and Sundays.

Please contact me. Cheers

The couta was 7,9 kg.

Simisteven i dont know address or have GPS cords but can try direct. If you coming from scotties side then you take the N2,then take the kingsburgh/umbumbulu offramp[im sure there is also a board that says winklespruit beach] then turn right towards the sea you will get the testing grounds on your left at the robot turn left then continue till you see a caltex garage just before the garage you turn right and you will go under a bridge ,then turn right again and carry on straight you will sea the beach to your left and the club house with the stairs going up the back.

hope this helps.

Smallish yellowfin tuna (5-8kg) and a few couta are comming out on the bluff at the moment.

Michael, many thanks I will contact you. The main thing I am looking for is someone - anyone- to team up with on any given day.  Yesterday I went out at Scotties alone and stayed within 1 k of the shoreline and got zip. Two guys went out 5 km and one landed a fantastic couta . You sometimes have to get out there ie 4 or 5 kms and thats not so cool when your are alone. I know one or two fellas who go out that distance on their own but they have got nerves of steel.

Michael please also send me GPS co-ordinates (or street address??) of your launch site so I can find my way there.

Thanks
