Edenvale Quarry???
« on: September 13, 2016, 09:36:18 AM »
Hi All


I dont really post on any forums but have a question thats eating me.


Does anyone know if the quarry is still running? Does anyone have contact details to join them?
Its right around the corner from my work and i would like to fish there.


Thank All

When we used to fish there (8 years back) there was a sign on the gate with the guys name and contact details, havent heard much about it for a while though, so not sure if it is still going.

Some big specimen carp in there, as well as a few Bass and lots of Vlei Kurper.

Yeah safe for day sessions, but I am sure there is a charge of some sorts. In the past you had to pay R250 a month (If I remember correctly) to be a member.
