Name: Noel Wewege Email: noelwewege@absamail.co.za Phone: 083 259 6953 All three rivers are unfishable and will remain so for some time. The middle Vaal at Elgro near Potch was about 200 cusecs last week and downstream the outflow from Bloemhof Dam is very high. The Riet at Douglas which is a small river is about 40 cusecs and is very dirty while the release from Vanderkloof is about 1000 cusecs which makes flyfishing downstream in the Orange near Hopetown impossible as it needs to drop to about 100 cusecs.
