Shot for the reply , We had a thread a while ago ago the Lesath  , think Johnf , also has one .


You guys spinning up in KZN , has a whole other approach , even the lures like the spoons , you use . Your spinning is much 'faster ' as you have more Gamefish , Kingies , big Leeries ,Snoek ...


In Cpt Spinning is minimal , as we dont have those species , we only have the leeries around for a short while , in Falsbay , same with the Elf , The Southern cape is the area to spin , No alot in the Surf , but mainly in the Rivers ...
Theres a hand full of Diehards Spinning for Yellowtail of Rooikrans . We just take a boat out , and spin till your arms fall off , KAtonkel , bonnies , Longies ,Yellowtial , Cape Snoek .
Further down Robberg in Plett , Should have BUS leeries , I recall a a Thread earlier this year of some big one landed by a member ...


Spinning for Kob , with spoons is much slower , than the KZN crowd .


Thanks for sharing !

So what is the general census , what distance are we throwing on average and  are we letting the rod manufactors down by not throwing their claimed distances
