Zim Fishing?

[bassmanic]

Nottingham (ZIM) or Maguga

I am planning to visit SA in June of this year. It was wandering if anyone has fished Nottingham or Maguga during this time of year? Which lake will be better to fish any other suggestions would be great. :blue-biggrin:

Hey bud,

What nottingham are you talking about... are you going the the cape area??

[Bassboy]

Hey Henry June is pre spawn in Zim so either dam will be ok.I think you will find the amenities at Notties a lot better than most places except maybe Mteri which is awesome.

Eish im in the wrong coutry hahaha

Hey Henry are you coming down to KZN at all while you are here?

[bassmanic]

Howard is that You? Nice to put a name to the face!! I was a bit slow on the uptake boet :blue-biggrin:Thanks for the info!! Shannon, boet at this point we have not made plans to visit KZN, I would love to, especially to go fish Inanda, with you and Howard moering all the fish, the site has basically become the Inanda Big fish Bragging Board :blue-lol:

BFSA should think of having the Winter Tour while I am visiting :blue-idea: :blue-biggrin: I would love to meet all you guys!! and show you how to go cold water fishing with tubes and tube swimbaits! :blue-badgrin:

I heard that Maguga has got "Maningy big fish", also heard Nottingham is great, I am a little worried about going to Mteri so deep in Zims, are thinks OK up there? Maybe Mteri is an option, how far is it from JHB?

Cheers

If you look far enough back there is a report back on Nottingham with spots and what worked ;-)

I’m seriously thinking about doing a fly in couple of days at Darwendale Zimbabwe… anyone done a fly in before?

[bassmanic]

i have had the opportunity to do a Northern Fly-in with a float plane, what a rip! There was no road access to the lake and the fish had no pressure :blue-biggrin: :blue-biggrin:

It is also a stress free trip, little to no packing and you are on the water a couple of hours after leaving. Why not make the Winter tour a fly -in :blue-lol:
