Have been at Clanwilliam for 3 days now and have only caught 2 small small-mouth bass and lost a few. This is very different than this time last year, when we were getting an average of 8 fish a day. There was a thunder storm here apperently 5 days ago. Has anyone been here lately and can the storm affect the behaviour of the fish. I am here for another week, so hopefully the fishing will improve.

Any advise would be great thanks

It looks like the fish are back on the bite. I think it was the thunderstorm. We caught 7 small SM bass. Most fish were caught on brighter worms fishing texas rig. Got one on jerk bait.

It gone back to how it was when I got here. It almost seems like there are no fish. I thought they were back but, next day: 0 fish. Last year one of the fish we caught had a disease called eut or something like that. I talked to a guy who was fishing Bulshoek and says he was fishing for barbel, carp and bass and has caught nothing. This might be far fetched but is it posible that the fish have died out because of the disease. We've only got 13 fish in 10 days and are all under or just over 1kg. Only caught 1 LM bass. You must use bright golden and chartreuse flaked worms fish very slowly. Anybody fishing there soon please give me any updates please. Can anybody help. Thanks.

Ek gaan einde Februarie Clanwilliam dam toe. Kan iemand vir my help. Is die vis beter by Lebanon of na die wal toe, of nog hoër op na die inloop toe. Wat ek hier lees is nie goeie nuus nie. Ek vang van ń kayak af.

Hoe lyk die vangste by Bulshoek?
