HI
After about 2 months since i met Johan VC we finally got the chance to meet up this past sunday.
We arrived late, so it didn't start well, we had to travel to pretoria from JHB.
But non the less when we arrived JVC was already fishing at 7 am, pulling in 2 scabs, on jelly's. Then went quite again.
As we arrived 9:30 am my friend, who bought a new spinner bait, throws 1, BAM on, throws another 3, BAM on again, throws for another 7 min , Bam on again.
We all went onto the spinner baits.
From all the lures flying in that same spot JVC moved to another corner. About 40 min later another 2 was caught by JVC.
Then my other friend went on the hook, by landing another 2, from a spinner he picked up left by other anglers. One on the spinner and the other on baby bass fluke.
All in all the day delivered about 9 weighting between 800g - 2 kg.
Then the suprise of the day, as we about to leave, my friend cast's his SPINNER bait into a shoal of small curper on the side of the dam, not more than 2 feet deep, BAM, the lure was taken by a BARBEL. At least 2.5 kg. Did he have a fight.
The fish fish went of the bite about 2:00 pm. It was a long but productive day.
Will post pics soon !!!!
