I would like to thank Admin for this new section. :uarocks
Come on guys lets get this section on the go!
This weekend sees the annual Knysna Oyster festival "skins" angling competition on the lagoon. I am going camping in Addo and will miss this event but I will try and combine a report next week. Are there any members taking part in the comp?
I hope you guys get a lot of these....

Come on, where are all the inshore guys?? Share some info or photos of your favourite fishing lagoon, river etc.
The reports I got from the past weekends fishing comp. was not good. Only a couple of good sized fish came out and the weather didn't play along. I'll try and post a more comprehensive report a bit later.
Tight lines!

Hi Hermann
I think this can be a really good sub-forum. I will be down in Knysna end of November so hopefully we can post a nice report of some Leervis on live bait.
Cheers

Woerman, I also think this will become a popular section as soon as the guys come out of hybernation. :hehe:
It is high time that we get together for some serious fishing and a couple of :beer: 's!!
I can't wait for the new season to start. Up to know the fishing has been poor but at least the summer is only a couple of months away. :pray: At least the cold weather gives me a chance to get the boat in ship shape or consume OBS as if it is water to help keep the body warm and to make the long nights shorter. :hyst: :hyst:
The weekends fishing comp did not produce as the previous years and only 12 fish were weighed in of which first place was a Steenbras of 6-7kg and the one that came second was only 3.5-4kg. Sorry, I don't have exact weights.

I agree Nightfox, things are slow at the moment but .......
Can you feel it? ..... It's almost here! :rck" :rck" :rck" :rck" :rck" :rck" :hehe:

Agreed, Summer can't come soon enough!
SAfish, do you reckon the fishing in the lagoon will heat up a bit in the beginning of Sept? I'll be in Knysna for a week, so planning to wet a line or 5 from my boat when time (and the girlfriend!) will allow.
Anyone heard of anything coming out Sundays River lately? Thinking about hitting it this weekend...

This is an awesome section! Nice fish SAFish!

@ Tyrrell - at the moment the lagoon is still in hybernation and the water is cold. September is the beginning of the "change over" months and anything goes. The one day you would catch some nice fish and the next blank completely. The Steenbras in my first post was caught in August. I would definately give it a go as there are some good sized Steenbras and Mussel Cracker around. Have a look at the map of the lagoon I posted in the fishing locations section.
@ WalkersKiller - thanks buddy, I thought that there would be enough inshore guys to warrant a request to admin. The Steenbras was caught on blood worm and measured 59cm. It went straight back after the photo was taken.
