Fishing Report

There arent any plans for this yet. The website is designed in a way that people post Fishing info as and when it happens. I may look into it later. But covering a Fishing Report for the entire country, with Freshwater, and Offshore could be very tricky.

Thanks Ronald, so in the mean while we can post here. I also found this side which can help anglers regard wind forcast, Add it as a link on the left External Link: www.windy.com

Maybe for the time being , you can copy and paste the fishing report that normally comes out every Friday to this site.

35cm cape stumpnose

Fished Winkles for the past two days.
Shad were on the bite on Tuesday.
Shad were scarce yesterday with just a few being landed at daybreak.
The Garrick are not feeding well. Hundreds of live bait out and one or two landed per day. Your chance of landing one at winkles is less then 5%(at the moment). Rather fish a less crowded area.

no shad biting at Winkles today, and no Garrick either

a relative was spooning at Mckenzies yesterday, got one shad

Heard a Garrick of 14kg landed at Virginia about a week ago

Saw it in the local paper . Also gt 1 shad at brighton beach yesterday abt 40cm on a prawn bait ....

guys while everyone is chasing Garrick and shad
What i want to know is were are all the tskie black-tail and silver bream that grace us each year

Hi MarcusGovender
Silver brim was on the bite today at happy wonderes. Including black tail

I fished in bazley today just spinning tackle. Got 3 shad. Foul hooked few black tail on the max rap.

Morning Guys. Stayed at Sheppie this weekend. The block was very full the whole weekend. Shad galore. I managed to land a couple spinning. it was really sad to see that no one sticks to the limit and the condition they leave the place is disgusting.
you'll must try standing back and watching these guys fish, its hilarious.

Crazy at Port edward ,splash rock also this morning and still going on......

Mckenzie this morning, plenty Karrenteen and small shad every now and then.
As usual very few undersize fish made it back to the water.

Were are parks board at this time when they know poeple will behave this way.. frustrating

I PHONED PARKS BOARD ON SATURDAY MORNING IN PORT EDWARD AS IT WAS A DISGRACE AT THE AMOUNTS AND SIZES THAT WERE TAKEN BY PEOPLE AND I WAS TOLD THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE THE MANPOWER TO ATTEND TO ALL THE CALLS.
IT IS A COMPLETE DISASTER

The sad reality is that the DAFF do not have sufficient members to patrol every single beach, they would rely a lot on tip off's so they can be at the right place at the right time. Best would be to contact them discreetly when you see poaching going on.

Also at Margate today. Shad was coming out by the plenty. Mostly descend sized. I caught 4 one well over 40 cm and others +/- 37 cm. Other guys taking 8-12 per angler. Really sad to see people doin this. We threw back about 3 fish that was under sized. Going back to GP tomorrow. Enjoy your fishing guys.

Heard theres some decent size shad coming out at Durban piers

Karas and shad full up at Isipingo

Brighton beach aswell at the back by the dead end top bunk and spinning

Karas up to 20cm plus even taking on a shad trace .......

The site is gone very quite, Any fishing reports?

I fished in ifafa on Saturday. Got some decent sized shad. No game fish . I did hook a black fin shark. It gave a beautiful aerial display before snapping the nylon coated wire.

the only fishing report I have is the one from ECR this morning
Heavy sea and huge swells
nets removed today
be careful guys stay safe

I went to Warner Beach on Saturday, took the lightie to enjoy playing in the rock pools. My luck Shad came on the bite and between my Buddy and myself we landed 6. The best part of it, was the sizes. Very decent sizes, and quite surprised me and gave a fun fight on light tackle.

Went to try my two new reels out last night. 1st stop umhlanga light house, water was bad. then went to Sunkist pier. fished from 11pm to 2am. lots of preckers. caught many shad avg 18cm to 25cm. three sand sharks avg 35 to 45cm. and a grunter around 30cm. had some big bites which i lost.baits used sards, cokka and sea lice. All fish returned. was a good night to destress.

Hey Ronald.......please stop stealing our bait

Bru, that size Shad is not bait...lol
