Johan,

Ek verstaan nie hoekom is jy so frustrated met ons comments nie?

Ek persoonlik sal nie baie vrae vra nie, ek sal net baie graag wil SIEN wat hy doen en hoe hy dit doen.

Jy weet almal maak altyd grappies oor alles en nou raak jy serious oor iets waaroor jy gele en dink het?

As jy die vraag in 'n meer ernstige lig gestel het sou ons dit dal bietjie anders hanteer het.

Miskien kan jy vir ons se, wat maak die "ander" forums beter as Sealine?

Behalwe vir die feit dat as ek "miskien" eendag aan die "click" behoort is daar die veel wat hulle meer kan bied as Sealine nie.

Ons "average" vissermanne kry so min kaans om met 'n pro of even 'n protea angler te praat dat ons sommer 'n DVD gaan koop as ons ons vrae geantwoord wil he. Die res tel ons langs die pad op by mense wat op die einde van die dag ook awesome anglers is en wat net nooit die vooreg gekry het om pro te gaan nie.

I guess if a pro had to watch this topic, he'd tell us all to go fish more.

I'd like to know how he deals with small ponds and rivers, seeing that it is where I spend most of my time fishing.

Because everything is always a joke. There was a whole topic started for talking cr@p and so on to try and keep the topic that was started heading in the way it was intended. Sealine was booming at some stage with loads if guys fishing for bass.

My question is. Where are they? Now and again they still pop in. But they are more active on other forums because when a question is asked it heads in the right direction and not totally of topic as here.

Why does the way I was thinking about my question got to do with the way you answer my question? The question was. If you had a chance to ask a pro angler a question. What would it be? Now explain to me how you could misinterpret that question. I asked what the question would be. So verdeuidelik did aan my.

I can’t tell you why other forums are better than others. But what I can tell you is that questions are taken in a more serious light than here some times. But I am not that active on other forums. When I am online I am on sealine.

Thats a brilliant question about the small dams and local waters,i also spend time at mostly municipal dams wich recieve allot of fishing pressure from carp fisherman and there are some bass fisherman who fish there too,i must say,i do catch allot of fish there,but theres not much structure so where does the fish go to,and like when a cold front hits,where do they go!!!obviously it does affect them allot more than on a big lake,and another thing,this dam has no dropoffs or anything,its like one flat pond with no channels or ledges or rocky banks or anything such as that os yeah,thats my question,i do ge fish here more aften than none,but you get fish and then you get more fish,i want the more fish option!!!

As ek my keuse gehad het sou ek hom gevra het vir 'n dag op die water. Dink mens kan soveel meer leer as mens doen as wat mens praat. Dink dis hoekom daar so veel hengel videos is daar buite.

An intresting topic, at the heart of it that is. I must confess i have asked the top South African Bass Anglers this question "what is the most common mistake junior/inexperienced anglers make"? Of the 3 anglers i asked, they ALL said 3 common things. Firstly, we dont "dead stick" enough, we fish too fast with soft plastics. 2nd was we dont throw our crankbaits into the thick timber (for a fear of getting hung up) you will be amazed at where these guys work a crank through. 3rd thing was not fishing the spot... within your spot, each spot we think holds fish will have a sweet spot, similar to fishing a pattern ... within a pattern. Now i understand in reading this it may seem like the normal smoke and mirrors that we all get in the bass fraternity. however, trying fishing you plastics a little slower, try fish your crank through some heavy timber, and fish your "secret" spot from different angles trying to fing the sweet spot. Then personally if someone asked me... i would say DEPTH. i think we fish to shallow, and tend to fish the visable structure as opposed to searching the deeper waters usually 15-20 feet(up to 40 feet)for rockpiles, ditches, stumps etc.

Hey Johan, Chill out. I think a lot of guys have been frustrated with relativly bad fishing lately.

Truth is there are so many questions I would want to ask a pro like KVD etc. I do not even know where to start, but I think it would be along the lines of how to get a lunker when the fishing is tough.

I have not seen you around on the water lately, have you been fishing?????? Come say hi next time.
