New in Gauteng

[Shamwari]

Howzit! Rietvlei has given me hours of fun after work.

We used to get there when it was quiet during the week and would almost always go all the way to the left near the bird island you can see in the distance.

Simply put, we would put on the waders and wade till about waste deep. Then fan cast out as there are plenty grass beds and that was that.

I used weightless flukes, spinnerbaits, weightless hatch match and some topwaters. These are the top baits that produced all the time there.

You have to be persistent, we always got fish in the late afternoon / early evening slot.

One can fish any where though and pick up fish, the trick is to go when it is quiet...weekends and public holidays are out.
