The Big Catch Week - KZN REPORT (2 MAY '24)

It has been another bumper week of fishing in KZN. Anglers have experienced a variety of fish species, offering a mere taste of what's to come as we approach the end of summer. Edible bait is becoming more prevalent, while sharks are finally giving offshore anglers a fighting chance. As for freshwater, trout fishing appears to be hot this week. Offshore: The recent Couta Classic Fishing Tournament saw a lot of decent Couta caught, along with a mix of other gamefish. Rock and surf: Summer fishing is starting to give way to early winter. This means switching to smaller, more natural-looking bait rigs and focusing on bait presentation over size. Freshwater: The dams and rivers are fishing well. Bass are still the most popular catch, but trout are making their presence felt and carp anglers are having success as well.
