@ L. Now that's more what i want to read. leka solid advice. Just dont turn out like those blokes out on the ledge boet here's to a good 'tail season.

I fish for the love of the sport, the enjoyment of the hunt and the camaraderie amongst like minded sportsmen... Yellowtail from the side is what brings us back over and over. I agree with what one of the other blokes said: "It is hard work"!
With regards to turning out like the other blokes... I live in hope that we can focus on the sport and the good times. Here's to a great season indeed! Tight lines.

@ Rofflign lol

if its a beginner then it might be a brick

hi

i see you have caught a tail at rookranz, can you tell us what tackle is the best suited for the spot? eg, log rod or short rod? what type of spoon?

OK, so no tips then? i'l have to come do it the hard way! "steel with the eyes" thanks any way...

 

[obeid]

what size hooks did you have to use for a yellowtail like your one whaler

relax! stealing with the eyes is the best way . my tackle is 10ft exage 30sl or 50sl daiwa with 16kg and a variety of plugs and spinners.LOTS of drinking water. as for the hard work Ledge has got it summed up.there are lucky times that one could catch more than one in a day and there are seasons that you catch nothing at all.the best tip is to bring protection against the elements (weather)

Hi

Mine was caught while fishing for sharks! it was my last cast for the day and i wasn't feeling like putting out another slide, so i used a bite trace with a 8/0 hook with a whole pilchard! i don't think the bait made it to the bottom before i got picked up, wasn't a very good fight co's i thought it to be another smoothhound and pulled the hell out of it! imagine my surprize when the oke with the gaff shouted GEELSTERT! up to that point i had never even seen one alive.

I would imagine that a stradic 8000 and shimano 110 rod would do the job perfectly, but i never fished there so best one of the guys that fish there give advice.

@oceanhunter - I have been there once, about march this year. Boy did we have fun ! We did exactly that, slid out yellowtail heads !! Boy did we go on, only managed to land 2 cows, but that water is very deep and full of toothy critters.

Ive heard that there are some huge bronzies swimming around there!

You have no idea! Try getting into the water with them and discusssing who the owner of a speared yellowtail should be!

Haha, I can only imagine! I dont have the guts to spearfish, especially in False Bay. I take my hat off to you.

But who says that I don't loose bladder control and swim away squeeling like a girl?!

I'm thinking about taking a trip to rooikrans tomorrow...is there safe parking?

 

[Pylstert]

Yes you park inside Cape Point.
