Which one of the Modderfontein dams are you gonna fish ?
The dam at the church / shopping centre you are not allowed to fish and is heavily policed by the AEL security swr ( They Woes )
-
I was planning to fish the dam near the shopping centre duh
-
There are loads of little ponds from the river further down, and most look like you would ne fish in them but they are full up of barbel, basics fishing at its best!!
-
Future down there is dam called dam 3 or 4 , where you can still fish. Shagger is correct loads of Cats . Take a bucket of wurm and you should be in busines :brbel:
-
Ok cool, got the worms already, maybe i will take a drive this afternoon.
How is the safety in the area?

:grk: , thanks for the replies.... Shag, how do you get to these 'lil ponds'? :grk: , the dam thats in front of those shops, (i think theres a post office there, adjacent to the garage), which dam is that? According to Google maps, that dam is dam 3. how do you get to dam 4? Himal and I want to fish there as its just a cast away from where we live. and :brbel: would be our target. Would mind a :carp: or 5
Thanks

Never fished dam 4 , but stay away from the one at the post office . Shags is from the area should be able to help. Walkerkiller is also from the area so should be able to help.
:tite and report back

So, we were off to Modderfontein dam last night after work.. Himal and I met at my house and then we were off... Got there a scoped around. Realizing that we were not allowed to fish in the big dam opposite the shops, we found that small river outlet of the main dam...its tiny, but after Shags info about those small rivers, we threw a worm out.... 3 mins later, :tite .... and a small :brbel: of about 40 cms. things went quiet for a while and then I was rebaiting with Himal hold his phone for light.When himal went back to the spot where his rod was, and the rod was gone!!! fish pulled it into the water but luckliy it got stuck on some reeds and we managed to get it out.... hook line was snapped out clean.
Shag, I still want to find the best spot that holds those big cats.... some help :) please
Also, we fishing dowerglen dam this weekend... any tips? Reports?
