Although I consider Casino Beach to be a low tide venue, it is actually ideally fished at neap tides. This is when the wave action is not too overpowering and the holes open up nicely. Low tides means a flat beach with fewer holes while high tide means fighting the surf. So when the tides [...] A little wavie at Casino Beach After a night out at the rugby (and a few too many beers) I decided that a quick trip down to the beach was in order. I was in desperate need of fresh air as well as a little exercise, and a flicking a fly into the surf [...] Sometimes a picture is worth 1000 words. Yesterday morning, before work, was one of those days… Fly fishing the surf at sunrise If you’re interested in the conditions, they were close to perfect. Neap lows, a slight breeze and manageable surf. The result; a handful of bastard mullet and largespot pompano. What a way [...] Wading at Cape Vidal Friday saw 6 DFT fly fishermen climb out of bed at 4am in pouring rain and howling wind to make the 320km drive to Cape Vidal to lay claim to the kingfish that frequent the area at this time of year. The weather reports were not good but we were [...] Simon and Christian releasing fish With Nick being up in Mozambique I decided that a trip to the harbour was in order. After all, I didn’t want him to get an early lead in 2013. The low tide, which is essential for wading the sand banks, fell at around 1pm. Although this is not [...] It’s not often that the Baha Boys return from a trip photo-less. In fact it’s Nick who often bellows the words, “Pics or you’re lying”. So I guess this is what makes our weekend trip to Casino beach just so strange. For me it was nothing more than a great morning out. I was up [...] Warren’s First Fish Of 2013, A Southern Pompano After Nick’s severe mocking of me, post his springer smashing session, it was time for some serious payback. As such I was both excited and nervous as we headed down to the Durban harbour after squash on Saturday afternoon. The plan was too find the springer [...] So after a very successful Midmar trip the Baha Boys decided to give the salt a bash before they parted ways to their various holiday destinations. The location was Durban Harbour. Warren arrived at my place at 04:15, hooked up the boat and we made our way down to the bay. The weather was as [...] The heavy rains of October had not yet eased but we’d promised a salt water outing and we had to stand by our word. As such we headed north on Sunday morning to the agreed venue of Westbrook. Sadly people seemed deterred by the conditions and despite the last 2 outings having been supported by [...] Port Edward Beach During a recent trip to Port Edward Nick and I took the obvious opportunity and headed down to the waters edge to get in a little fly fishing. Sadly October had seen over 3 times the normal rainfall for the period and as such the seas were chocolate brown to say [...] |
