Monster Fish Are Feeding- KZN REPORT (27 MARCH '25)

Loading player...
We’re thrilled about the incredible fishing action happening along the coast this week, with numerous large catches, including giant fish and successful angling events. Along with the exciting fishing news, we provide updates on the ongoing Blue Lagoon fishing ban and explore alternative solutions from local experts. The South Coast has been especially productive, offering a variety of catches, from big game fish to sharks and bass. As the school holidays approach, we offer suggested family-friendly fishing spots for the perfect holiday getaway.

We also address challenges like cold water conditions impacting certain fish species, but note that places like Durban have seen excellent catches of edible fish such as grunters and kob. The fight to lift the Blue Lagoon fishing ban continues, with local anglers finding ways to fish at nearby spots. Overall, excitement is building as reports pour in of fantastic catches in both freshwater and saltwater, ensuring a memorable holiday season for anglers.
