South Coast madness! - KZN Report (20 June '24)

--:--

The brilliant run continues with a magnificent fishing week experienced by anglers along KwaZulu-Natal's coastline despite the now elusive sardines. In this week’s KZN Report, we cover the abundance of Garrick, Shad, and Snoek as anglers reap the rewards while the sharks go deeper following the sardines.
Offshore: The offshore fishing has not been fireworks but there have been fish to catch along the entire coast. Get out there and get your fishing rod bending!
Rock and surf: The shore-based fishing has been a combination of spinning, scratching, and a hint of big fish fishing. All that and the sardines are here in numbers!
Freshwater: The winter weather is pretty much here and the need for a beanie and jacket is paramount in the early mornings. Fishing has been good with some big fish being landed in each facet.
