Who here all thinks that it is absolutely redicula

Watsup riaan, is that tygerwaterfront? Ed and my self caught 33 small mouth there in 2 hours.

Hey Ian,

It's not at the Waterfront, the security there is intense and have called the police before so I personally don't recomend fishing that spot but the next quarry down has these guy's in. You have to work for them but the payoff is always sweet!

 

[Valrath]

Where is that first pic taken ?

 

[Southpaw]

Is it the quarry by the down hill slide thing? Ive fished that quarry quite abit and have seen some monsters (smallies and large mouth)cruising around in there but never hooked into one only smaller large mouth. The University security started chasing people away so I dont go anymore.

 

[Valrath]

I wouldnt mind fishing those quarries on a tube so the security cant get to you and you can get to the fish

 

[Riaan_The_Legend]

They tend to leave you alone if you are on the tube and it's even better if you park at Engen because they most likely wont look for you if there is no car next to the dam! I have tubed the quarry next to the University numerous times and caught lots of good fish, it just takes time to learn the dam because the fish can be tricky to find. As for the first pic... my lips are sealed!

 

[Southpaw]

Suppose if you go early in the morning or later after 6pm the security wont bother you.
The corner by the pump , the storm water pipe and the one by the blue gums produced the most fish.
Bait of choice was the Berkley 5'' worm black with chartuse tail

Has anyone fished the dams on the golf course left of the quarries and Doordekraal ?

 

[Riaan_The_Legend]

I actually live over the road and am very sad to say that the bass have long gone since the rise of the barbel population. I still try every now and then but always get caught by security, even at night, and the fishing is shocking. If you are lucky, you might get one fish a month and a few barbel in between. Furthermore, the residents near by are absolutely anal about their dam and do their fair share in stopping you, even calling the cops! No jokes. Its so sad that we are limited to only 2 local dams of which we are only allowed to fish one!

 

[Valrath]

its so unfair

All the best dams are closed

Why whats the reason for this ?

 

[Riaan_The_Legend]

Some are on private property, i.e. Golfcourse near my house or in the case of Doordekraal or Sonstraal, some guys conduct themselves like idiots and leave all their empty containers or used line on the bank after a session and people get fedup with it. I always make a point of picking up the litter etc, especially when I have my fishing stuff with me, just so that the locals know you aren't a chop.

 

[Valrath]

Ye but thats 1 person they cant hold the majority responsible ;/

The people that manage the dams are a bunch of chops ;/

 

[Riaan_The_Legend]

WOW! I just drove past the dam and it looked absolutely perfect! Ahhhhhh! I flippen want to go fishing! It was just like a mirror the whole way across...

 

[Valrath]

Which dam did u catch more on the gold course ?

The top dam or the bottom dam by the gate where the road goes down where all those big speed bumps are ?

 

[IanBass]

im amped for a session now, but i hate fishing alone

 

[Valrath]

Ye fishing is pretty boring alone especially when u catch a lunker and u have to take a pic of urself holding it ;/

 

[Valrath]

Anyone interested in a tube session 2moz ?
