not quite intentionally micro fishing
« on: July 22, 2013, 11:10:48 AM »
WK would be happy to know that me and a pal caught 17 small fish  (7 species) on very light tackle in Durban harbour yesterday. We fished for  about 3 hours.
Grunter - 5
Soapy - 4
Natal Stumpy  - 3
Thorn fish -  2
Sand gurnard  - 1
Lizard fish  - 1
Other unidentified  - 1
 Although we tried a variety of baits – all fish were caught  on cracker.

We saw a garrick of about 80cm taken by one angler on live  bait. We also noticed many anglers trolling – but could not see what they were  pulling, nor did we notice anyone catching. But, by the number of boats pulling  lures, it must be an effective way of fishing the harbour.

My little boat is prone to being flooded by tug wakes etc - so I dont take my camera or phone with me

is this not a rather STRONG and over the top comment - I mean to say - is it really "WORTHLESS" to post a report without pics?


very encouraging John F!

Sorry, Ziggy wasn't meant to sound like that... the word worthless is "engraved" in the emoticon and I can't edit it... all I wanted to express was "it'd be nice to see some pics"!

My apologies.

I was being ironic! No offense taken - was going with the flow

No apologies needed - see my comment to Homie - I am not offended, I was trying to make a joke
