I have 4 days of fishing this weekend and 4 days of family as Elna fishes with me.I made sure that I taught her bassfishing BEFORE we got married.
We are fishing Clanwilliam and are looking forward to breaking the SA record for smallies.
Believe me it is possible this time of the year as the dam is only 35% full and structure is more evident on the sides. Even deep water structure is now visible underwater.

Wow that's low, does that make it easier to catch when all the fish are concentrated into a smaller body of water.

We all know what cold front can do to the fishing, I see it is full moon today what effect does the moon phases have on our little green friends.

The more I learn about fishing the more I realise
how much more I have to learn about fishing.

Jeremy the worst I have fished Clan was at 17%.
I think it does help at Clan as there is too much structure when the dam is full. Again if you find the bass when the dam is full, you are in for some fun.

We’ll probably fish Inanda as a pre-fish for the Inanda Classic... we want to play the Lowrance HDS units a little bit... we have 3 compos on the trot at Albert’s after this.

Hmpf.... The wife has to work the entire long weekend, so that leaves me to babysit.

Wonder if you can take a 10 month old baby fishing? :blue-rolleyes:

Put him or her in one of those chest slings but just face him forwards to get the full fishing experience.

Crank baits make good rattles to.....just remove the trebles.
