Big Garrick with Sardines - KZN REPORT (12 JUNE '25)

Loading player...
This episode brings another wild ride where the salt meets the soul and the ocean pens its own story.

We’re diving headfirst into chaos, adrenaline, and fishing tales soaked in saltwater and packed with thunder. This week’s show is all about size—massive kingfish, non-stop Garrick action, and some serious ragged-tooth thrills. We’re not talking a few fish here and there. Oh no, we’re talking numbers so big it’s borderline ridiculous.

With the 2025 Sardine Run blowing through, the ocean’s about to explode, bringing all kinds of crazy—Garrick, blacktip kings, big GTs, and of course, some monstrous snoek. With a long weekend ahead, the action is heating up. From the sardines flooding the shore to non-stop fish on the line, the madness is just beginning.

So, whether you’re hitting the beach or heading inland for trout, make sure you’re out there. It’s a long weekend—grab your dad, grab your gear, and get fishing.
