I took the new deepsea boat up river just to get a feel for her,took the lightsticks with ,anyway it was so bloody hot ,about 35deg we ended up on the bank under the shade of tree ,not really have any energy i tossed a sardine fillet ,no sinker ,into the little bay and managed 3 spotties with 3 baits but all were 35 cm ,a little guy called Sealine whispered in my ear "release",before being a Sealine member i would have kept them no question.
any way we took the boat to sea sun morn 4am ,sea tempreture 10.5deg unbelievable ,only managed 2 hake/stockfish and a cobbie and tons of barbel ,had to come back at 10 when the wind started coming up,can none of these weather reports get it right,TV 3 ,weather 32 knot South easter 60% rain,Wind guru 1knot offshore wind ,no cloud cover ,actual ,Rain ,clearing up ,light South easter swinging to Weast, Eish 'its confusing in Africa

mouldie last thursday in cape town they predicted a 20km/h se with 3.8m swells for strand. Sounded like a plan. About 1km from the strand turnoff a thunderstorm broke out... about 60-80km/h North EAST wind for 45min. After that there was almost no wind, then it blew about 5km/h in EVERY SINGLE DIRECTION EXCEPT SE.

oh and swell height was about 10cm!!!! water crystal clear.

Is that what a hake looks like. I thought they had square tails.Those look like gamefish. Just show when you think you know it all. ha ha. Nice catches.
