Name: Capt. Louis Day Email: louis@hermanus.co.za Phone: 082 555 8317 Breede River. Water temperatures have dropped appreciably and with the recent rain cold freshwater has come into the estuary. The fishing has been hard with few boats on the water. Mostly small steenbras, elf, kob and bronze bream have been caught. De Mond Lots of fresh water has entered the system. Lots of very small steenbras around. Unfortunately, the swing bridge across the river has still to be repaired so it is difficult to access the far side. Hermanus lagoon. Some leervis have been taken including a couple of good size. I also know of a big kob being caught but otherwise the fishing has been difficult with water temperatures between 13 and 15C°. The lagoon remains closed, but the mouth will probably reopen once sufficient winter rain has fallen. Bot River lagoon. No news from this lagoon which is still closed. Rock & surf. Bait anglers are targeting steenbras and especially galjoen now that the season for this species is open.
