Rough seas and bumpy rides - KZN Report (22 Aug 24)
--:--
This week's Angler News KZN fishing report highlights a mixed bag of results across the province. While offshore and freshwater fishing have been thriving, rock and surf fishing has been relatively quiet with the summer fish yet to arrive.
Offshore: Rough seas have made offshore fishing challenging, but those who've braved the conditions have managed to land some decent catches.
Rock and Surf: Garrick and brusher have been the primary targets, but it's important to remember that both species are under threat. Please consider catch-and-release to ensure their populations remain healthy.
Freshwater: Freshwater anglers have enjoyed a successful week, with several impressive bass catches reported. Noah Stewart, this week's Cover Angler, landed a remarkable 6.1kg bass at Freshwaters at Kildare in Nottingham Road using a weighted 4-inch white fluke.
General Conditions:
Durban: Some edible fish have been caught in certain areas.
North and South Coasts: Strong winds and sandy conditions have made fishing difficult.
Weather Updates: The episode includes weather forecasts that can impact fishing conditions.
Transitioning to Freshwater: As the summer progresses, consider transitioning to freshwater fishing to take advantage of the current activity.
