LOWRANCE SOUTH AFRICA Issue 24 | Page 35

The anglers targeted Brown Trout and Rainbow Trout - most of the catches being Rainbow Trout. A total of 110 fish were caught and released. The competition is based on measurement – and the anglers are awarded 100 points per fish and 20 points per centimetre. The longest fish caught was 72 cm. Fish have to be returned alive, which is why they only use barbless hooks. slide Everyone enjoyed the rest day (Wednesday) braai and especially the performance by local Gum Boot dancers. Later a group, including the International FIPS-Mouch representative Mr Stefan Allaker and his wife, visited the local township, Sakalwa, and they donated cooking utensils and money - to two different groups - to assist them with their work for the needy in the area. The anglers also took a quick trip into Kruger Park on the Friday.
