Name: Horst Filter Phone: 082 628 7702 SE Mpumalanga. Horst will only resume yellowfishing when the spawning season comes to an end which is about March 2025 and when the local rivers clear which is usually about April/May. In the meantime, there is some good bass and tilapia fishing in the farm dams in the area. KZN. Most of the Natal yellowfish (scaly) stretches below the trout zone are now too discoloured for flyfishing as the summer rains have set in. Michael Ardensgaard says the middle Umkomaaas is quite discoloured but some of the tributaries which clear quickly may be worth a look at. Also, the Underberg Himeville Trout Fishing Club reported that the upper Lotheni and Umkomaas rivers just below the trout sections were fishing well and there was always the chance of a good brown from amongst the yellows.
