As I said in the last report the Swartkops can fish very well with a flyrod over winter especially on those warmer days when the wind has died down. There are plenty of smaller kob around and of course lots of juvenile leervis in the 25 to 35cm class which give a good fight, even on a 6 wt rod. It is just a matter of locating the shoals and there is always the chance of a much larger fish and recently a 75cm leerie and other larger fish have been taken. The best time is during the turn of tides with the neap tide period being the best. Gamtoos & Sundays. It is very much the same story at these two estuaries with plenty of juveniles around, especially near the Gamtoos mouth where you can flyfish from the side. A sizeable leervis from the Swartkops. |
