A very quiet week off the Bluff, with far
less anglers taking to the beaches.
With the abundance of bait fish in the
water one could only assume a large
number of fish will be on the bite,
however, reports suggest otherwise.
There have been few Shad and only a
handful of edibles around.

Nyoni Rocks fished well over the weekend
and anglers had good Shad to take home.
Garrick were scarce despite the amount of
bait in the area. Anglers caught good
numbers of Grey Sharks in the mornings too.
At Winkelspruit, Garrick have been on and
off the bite throughout the week, taking live
Karanteen or Shad. The Shad have been
going string mainly on the low tide in the
mornings.

Umkomaas has produced a very respectable
Shad of over 4kg’s late last week, and some
decent number of fish over 1kg as well. The
Grunter and Kob have been biting steadily
into the evenings, taking Sardine belly and
Chokka baits. A few smaller Skates were
caught in the evenings on Chokka /Red eye
baits and Prawn/Chokka baits.

Plenty of Blue states around and Grey Sharks
and Browns have also been caught during
the weekend in the Scottburugh area. The
best bait so far has been Mackeral cutlets
and bigger Red eye baits. Red eye belly and
fresh Chokka seems to be the best bait,
presented on a thick chunk of glow foam
secured to a Mustad big gun 4/0. A lack of
live bait in Port Shepstone has resulted in
few catches of Garrick, however Kob have
