You answered your own question about "bass spawning at Kwaggas yet" then .... thats a fine pre spawn female. Well done !

You can and should be very chuffed, it takes persistence and hard hours on the water to catch those.
Lemme guess, carolina rig?

got four fish for the day, 7am - 2:30pm water temp was 10C in the morning and some spots at 12C, heated up to 14C is some areas, and average of 12-13C.

No smallies.

The prices are different now as well, R70 per boat and angler, then R50 per additional person! crazy but hey.

nice, well done. You were nicely rewarded.

Ja is a pitty about the price but it is still way cheaper than entering as a water skier

cool, sounds like its in and around that area. CBC kindly showed me the stump row. There is a row of stumps that run in a long line (perpendicular to the shoreline)  upto about 15ft of water with a stump every few meters. Usually a few fish on every stump.  I have always picked up atleast two fish there during the spring and summer months provided you get there before someone else get there.

When i fished it with CBC he pulled out 2 x 3kg fish and a couple of size smallies arround 2.5kgs.

 

[spirits]

now that is a big bass. congrats

Well done Ian, I knew the fish finder I sold you would do the Job... Just 500g short of the magical 10lb mark. 

Beautiful fish !!!!
