Het alleen (dis partykeer lekker) gaan launch vandag so net voor 12 die middag.

Hoofsaaklik getrol op spoed 2 en 3 met Salmo Hornet 4f en Cotton Cordell Big "O". Het sommer binne 10 minute my eerste byt gehad naby die riete op my laaste Salmo Hornet 4f Hot perch- die monster vis het hom gegryp en my binne seker 4 sekondes afgebreek a.g.v. 'n te stywe rem.(-'n duur les.) Hierdie was een van 2 monsters wat ek gehaak het, die ander een het los gekom.

Tussen 2-4 het die Hornet 4f beter gewerk as die Big O omdat hulle dieper loop. Vanaf 4:30 pm het net die Big O gewerk - moet wees omdat hy vlakker loop en vis op oppervlak was. Later die middag het die oppervlak bietjie alg opgehad. Die dag was meestal bewolk met nou en dan son.

Kan nog nie vasstel watter kleure werk wanneer nie -het 2 visse na mekaar gevang een op wit en een op swart.

Al die geles was Grootskub- nie een kleinskub soos gewoonlik nie.




How's the Fishing?

Fellow was fishing. Guy walks up and says, "How's the fishing?"

Fellow says, "Fishin's fine."

Guy says, "How many you got?"

Fellow says, "None."

Guy says, "None? Thought you said the fishin's fine!"

Fellow says, "Fishin' is fine, catchin's bad!"

 

My eerste grootskub Gele vir die dag. 1,2kg op Salmo Hornet 4f Dace. Die foto het verbasend nice uitgekom met wolke wat weerkaats in die water.



The Fishing Priest

The priest was a fisherman, but he hadn't fished in months. One perfect
Sunday morning he couldn't resist. He called up the Bishop and claimed
he had laryngitis. The priest then headed out to his favorite spot.

The hook hadn't been in the water five minutes before he got a strike,
and landed the biggest fish he had ever caught - although he had seen
bigger ones., A half hour* later, he caught the biggest fish he had ever
seen. Another forty-five minutes later he landed a fish that broke the
world record.

All this time St. Peter and God have been watching the priest from
heaven. St. Peter turned to God, and said, "How can you reward this
priest? He lied. He let down his congregation."

God smiles at St. Peter, and replies, "I'm punishing him."

St. Peter is confused, so God continues, "Well, after he finishes, who
can he tell his story to?"

NATIONAL PARK SERVICE ADVISORY......

In light of the increasing number of bear confrontations with outdoors persons, the National Park
Service advises all outdoor persons (hunters, fishermen, hikers, campers,
etc...) to sew small silver bells to their clothing to prevent them from startling any bears. It is
further recommended that all outdoors persons carry pepper spray for their protection.
These persons should also familiarize themselves with the sign of these animals and should for
example know the difference between black bear feces and grizzly bear feces.
Black bear feces are small and contain berries and squirrel fur. Grizzly bear feces are much larger
and contain small silver bells and smell like pepper spray.

Safe Boating Tips

When launching a boat, always back the boat into the water. Pulling the boat into the water can
really mess up your carburetor.

When water skiing, never allow a feisty duck to hitch a ride on your skis.

Always stay at least five boat-lengths behind the whale in front of you.

While sinking to the bottom of a lake or ocean, screaming does not help.

When boating, always wear a swimsuit with suspenders. This makes it easier on the guys with the
grapling hook when they're trying to retrieve your body.

Drowning can cause severe shortness of breath. And you don't even want to think about what it
does to your complexion.

Always wear a life jacket in case you fall overboard. Also, it's a good idea to take along something
to read, in case you're swallowed by a whale. Most whales seem to enjoy Moby Dick.

Boating while intoxicated is not illegal in some states, but it's stupid in all of them

My 4e Gele net oor 2kg en 'n lekker fight op Cotton Cordell Big "O".

You might be a fisherman if...

1) You have a power worm dangling from your rear view mirror because you think it makes a good
air freshener.
2) Your wedding party had to tie tin cans to the back of your bass boat.
3) You call your boat "sweetheart" and your wife "skeeter".
4) Your local tackle shop has your credit card number on file.
5) You keep a flippin stick by your favorite chair to change the TV channels with.
6) You name your black lab "Mercury" and your cat "Evinrude".
7) BobberStop Tackle Shop has a private line just for you.
8) You have your name painted on a parking space at the launch ramp.
9) You have a photo of your 10 lb. bass on your desk at work instead of your family.
10) You consider viennies and crackers a complete meal.
11) You think MEGABYTES means a great day fishing.
12) You send your kid off to the first day of school with his shoes tied in a palomar knot.
13) You think there are four seasons--Pre-spawn, Spawn, Post Spawn and Hunting.
14) Your $30,000 bass boat's trailer needs new tires so you just "borrow" the ones off your house.
15) You trade your wife's van for a smaller vehicle so your bass boat will fit in the garage.
16) Your kids know it's Saturday---Because the boats gone.

'n Baber nie geweeg Salmo Hornet 4f Red Crawdad.

A guy rings his boss.
I can't come to work today.
The boss asks why?
The Guy says it's my eyes.
What's wrong with your eyes the boss asks?
I just can't see myself coming to work,
so I'm going fishing instead.

26e By dam gaan vang naby Olifants rivier, doel was om te dip vir karp, 2 byte gehad nie een karp gevang, Wel een bass 1kg+ op zarra spook, pel van my 2 bass op troll met Salmo hornet hot perch. Meestal bewolk bietjie sonskyn.

Toe ek die klein bassie vang Gooi ek hom met die curly tail nog in sy bek 'n bietjie verder in, dadelik gryp groot bass hom, en land toe die bass. Baie gedip vir Karp, 3 bass gevang terwyl ek dip vir karp borrels, later gedink dis die bass wat borrels maak....? Sonskyn en vrek warm!



I FISH THEREFORE I AM!! (so says NH codfather)
"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Fishing rod in one hand - fresh caught tuna sandwich in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO, What a Ride!"



Krokodil- was heeltyd binne sig, ek is seker sy teenwoordigheid jaag visse weg......




A young man and an old man were fishing on a pier.The young man started telling the old one that the night before he caught a trout that was over 3 1/2 foot long.

The old man replied "Oh yea, well I was here 2 nights ago and I hooked something huge. After a 30 minute fight I finaly got it up and it was an old lantern and the thing was still lit."

The young man said "Your lying. I can't believe that."

Then the old man said "I'll tell you what, you knock a couple of foot off your trout and I'll blow out my lantern."

Vandag so net na 5pm gaan kyk hoe lyk die Olifants rivier by die klein bruggie. Dit was nog sterk in vloed. Ek het darem 3 gevang in die vloedwater- almal op June-bug Fluke. Dit was elke keer een helse fight in daai stroom.

Het die visse gevang op die plek waarna die visstok wys.

Yes its Olifants in Limpopo Groblersdal Loskopdam area, not the Cape province. I think the next SA record will be from these waters.

Its a pity that so many pictures disappeared from this post, anyone know why some of them are gone?

Hi guys,

I'm new to this site and still a novice in bass fishing.
I'm going to Ruby River Resort on the Olifants this weekend and would like to try for some bass/geelvis.

Has anyone fished on this resort? And any advise on what lures to use would be much appreciated.

Thank you,
Reinier

Early morning poppers- zarra spook, you normally get the big ones on the zarra. Later on try weightless fluke in Junebug if it doesn't work try watermelon candy. If all else fails use weighted/ carolina fluke or creature bait, but then your retrieve must be slow inch by inch. If you see the line move only a tiny bit "Kap" as hard as you can.

In short, start very early the morning, start top water then go in the middle en then on the bottom. Change colours as well. Fish near structure. If you cant get any bites if you use my method correctly they aren't on the bite. Remember with all your baits- retrieve slow, when you think you go slow enough then go even slower.

Hope it helps and let us know what happened.

For yellow fish there is only one type to use, Salmo Hornet Hot perch 4f, and get other darker colours as well if the Hot perch don't work, and if I say your retrieve must be slow I mean sloooow, every now and then while retrieving give it a small jerk. Whatch out, there is very big yellows and they fight like hell, your drag mustn't be too tight, they'll break you off, use thin diameter line.

Be safe and whatch out for the crocodiles/ sometimes hippo. and black mamba.

Regards

Jake
