If so, should we look @ dates between the 15th and the end of Jul? (Fifa thing only ends on the 15th for me)

Okay will work out the date, whilst on that I never go for just one day anymore, reason for this is that they only open @ 08:00 then it's permit time and you eventually get to cast your first cast @ around 08:30 then it's off the water @ 17:00 whereas when you sleep over you can fish straight through the night and the all important time of dusk and dawn TOPWATER NIRVANA and you get way more fishing time for only an additional R20 for sleeping over, you do have to pay entrance and fishing permit fees for each day tho which can make it a wee bit expensive but then again two days and a night there for R330 is more than worth it....., even if you don't but I always do, not always monsters but always.
So I will go, thinking of hitting it even before then just gotta see when I'll be having a day off, this will be an exception to the rule of not going there for only a day but I need to get to water before I go NUTS.

K, so I had a look @ possible dates:
17 - 18 July (will have to phone the thursday prior to ensure fishing is allowed), this is the preffered dates
if not then 19 - 20 July, this how ever falls on a Monday and Tuesday which will result in less guys being able to attend/go, so we'll really try for the first mentioned, this however depends on the Yuppie divers, if there aren't any we're on, the only problem is we'll only know on the 15th (thursday prior) @ 16h00 as thats the cut-off time for divers to book.
Yes I'm sleeping over, anybody else is more than welcome.
Facilities for those that's never been there, there's LOO's, showers, smallish thacthed (no walls) lapa's with power (sometimes) and there's a restuarant and bar.
Safety? Safer than your house and I don't care where you stay ::jest
So let's start a list just so that we can get an esitmate of how many peeps might join in.
1. Myself (LGF)
2. Vlakvark
3. Vlakvark's Brother
4. The Kid (if it's the 17-18, otherwise he has to attend school)
