ANSA - KZN REPORT 25 MAR 23

Loading player...
The strange weather has put a bit of a freeze on the fishing of late. There are still fish to be caught but the going has been tough this past week. Offshore: The bigger seas and heavy winds have made fishing on the boat a little unpleasant, but the bumpy trips have been worth it. Tuna and some proper Couta have all made it on to the deck. Rock and Surf: The seas have been a bit rough with scratching being the predominant method along most of the coast. That being said, there have been some ineds mixed in. Freshwater: The freshwater fishing has seen the main focus move from explosive bass fishing to the tranquility of the midlands and a fly rod.
