Youre going to compete against guys that is there for more than a week. Nothing prevents them to catch a winning fish before the time and hide it somewhere in a keepnet. You are also going to compete against guys with a voerplek that is a week old............Some guys even previously brought in their winning fish from another dam, its impossible for the organisers to check every boat, they didnt check mine, and if the fish is caught in the olifants system it will be seen as a loskop Carp.

If they dont stop boats from going into the water a week before the time im definitely not going to do the comp again.

Hi Jake 1

 

They do inspect the boats before they go out in the morning as you need to hand in the one ticket. As for people building feeding spots that's true but that does not mean they will get to there spot first the morning of the comp. The cheating  possibility is there for sure, unfortunately there is not much you or I can do about it I believe that. If one cheats it will catch up on you later

I for one enjoy the outing and unfortunately there is the unfair practice that certain individuals indulge in, lets hope for a fair comp and enjoy it.^^..

Hi Jakes1
well the fishing was good lots of fish, came out my first time on the dam, and got one Carp, 2.86kg and one barbel ±2 kg,

the winning carp was 6.02kg
the winning barbel was 10.52
the biggest Bass was 3.2kg
Ladies winner was carp just over 4 kg.

So there was some good fish that came out and the weekend atmosphere was great, we will be there again next year is time allows it for sure.

:wfish
 
Water temperature where I were fishing was +- 18C•. We were 3 guys on the boat and didn't even get a bite! Was quite cold on the water. We were fishing at a depth of +- 8m.... Don't know wether it was becuase of all the feed that all the other guys were throughing out ot the fact that there was so many boats on the water or just the weather itself, but to me it seemed like the fish was dead! I saw a couple of markers in the water on sunday and think that all the people that won prizes were cheating. They didn't even inspected our boat for fish before we went out!!! Heard so guys talking that the carp that came out ware biting in water of +-13m and deeper! Must be because of the cold. Anyhows except for the fishing itself I enjoyed the weekend. Wil be there nextyear again!!!
