Conquering the elements – KZN REPORT (14 Nov 24)
--:--
Despite challenging weather conditions this week in KZN, including rain, wind, and fluctuating water temperatures, anglers have managed to reel in a variety of fish.
On the KZN South Coast, Sandspit and Margate Pier have been hotspots, with Garrick caught on live bait, along with species like bronze bream, blacktail, and rock cod.
The Midlands rivers have cleared up after recent rains, offering strong fishing, while the North Coast is buzzing with the arrival of summer species like Dorado and Kuta.
Offshore, the season is heating up with Dorado and yellowfin making an appearance. As the weather improves, fishing conditions are getting better, and with it, the promise of more exciting catches in the coming weeks.
Offshore: On the deeper sea side, Yellowtail and Tuna have been in the mix, although not as plentiful as other areas like Durban.
Rock & Surf: The action down the South Coast continues to be exceptional. While Garrick numbers aren’t massive, the ones showing up are a decent size, and live baits have been doing the trick.
Freshwater: For those looking to avoid the stormy seas, the freshwater scene in the Midlands has been a bright spot. Midmar and Albert Falls have been producing good numbers of bass and carp.
