Vaal Dam and a Farm
« on: October 10, 2014, 12:15:29 PM »
So planning a trip to the Dam towards the end of November
We will be camping on a mates farm


Question

For carp-a rietvlei strop (braid would be a good option) plain bom one top hook any sweet floaty and one the other a bun spice mielie or any strong mielie with bun spice dip. Yellow fish and muddy would also like that and for barbel  a muddy head with muddy oil.
Keep calm and fish on:-)

Meat World in Springs, next to the market ,often has hearts ( sheep / beef etc ) . There is a meat world near you at the East Rand Mall. Regards :toppie:
