Met up with two de-motivated Sealiners at Strubens yesterday.

These are good chaps and I hate seeing a fellow Sealiner strruggle to get into a good fish.

So, I will not be fooshing any time soon, but if anybody plans on fishing a propper bass venue(anything but Struben hell dam) and has a spot or two open, please invite old Smokey Toe and Sustan along.

JohanVC and Mr Zak took invited me last year and got me onto my PB, been hooked ever since and the experience was awesome.

Would really like to see these two get advice from a seasoned anler.

Thanks guys!

Billa: I will help where I can. That’s how we all started. Just the competitive seen is keeping me very busy. But we will make a plan. Get them to PM me their details and we can hook up

Hi Billa,

Why don't you send them to Vasfontein?

I caught this bass within half an hour last Friday.

There are some very nice bass in that dam and they chances are good of catching them.

Thanks BM, will do, they are on SL, and I'm sure they will read this. Just think the chaps can do with a day or two with an experienced angler at a venue. I use every bit of skill and knowledge that I've gained from seasoned bazos to my advantage, quite honestly, if I didn't have the time spent with them, I would still be looking for fish!

I'll take them at the earliest possible oppertunity, just getting stuck with moving house and raising two todlers.....

My advice for now was to read Sealine posts 'till they go blind, hehehehehehe

haha sup Billa!

This is a little embarassing man! I wont lie strubens is killing us slowly....Smokingtoe must have been there between 20-30 times and still never caught anything except crabs. Iv never caught anything over 500g...

we have tried other dams,we each caught 3 at bronkies throughout the day...biggest about 800 i guess, was pretty awesome!!. Tried Ithumela and blanked, tried another dam close by and blanked, tried vaal(not for too long) and blanked...we were thinking of vasfontein but kinda just never went :/

I was actually just saying to him after we went to that bass workshop how awesome it would be to go fishing with someone who knows what they doing lol! So it would really be cool if anyone with any sort of experience could take us along some time or just kinda show us what we doing wrong!

cheers

That's what the guys on this forum do, they help.

Hope to be taking you out soon enough, give you some re-cycled info, maybe twist an arm or two for a "pro" to tag along and get you guys into 2kg+ fish before you decide to sell your tackle and buy bowling gear.

Very dangerous sport that bowling thing!
 
Ok I no pro, seriously, struess nanies kopela, but I would love to go with, just one condition, anybody got a place where I can leave this Bronchitus for the day? Anyone? Been in bed since last week friday and DSTV only has so many shows.... I too haven't been to Vasfontein in a very long while, but myself never really had any mentionable success there anyhows, Ithumela, I always get them but again nothing major biggest I 've caught was around 900g and seen was 1,2kgs, so any other place would be nice, just not stubborns, although it's close and free and safe and borring and dead I just don't feel like casting practise is something that I need to do now.
