ANSA - KZN REPORT - 01 FEB 24

Loading player...
Into the hottest month we go. February means hot days, sharks, rays and gamefish. Offshore:  The sea has been a bit bumpy with the more prevalent northeast wind but there are more and more summer fish being landed every day...Rock and surf:  The heat and the northeast wind makes the inedible anglers weak at the knees... The big fish have been around and many have seen their backing knots already! Freshwater:  The freshwater fishing has been good for most facets. The bass fishing has been the highlight of the groups, but the trout and carp guys have done well this year.
