Congrats Werner, sounds like you chaps had a good time down at Vidal! Bad luck on that Fuel problem, I am glad it turned out fine in the end!

Great catches!!!! (clap)

Thanks for the report.

The diesel thing is scary stuff. However, it seems only 2 cans were filled with diesel (or did I get something wrong?)... that's odd... I'm thinking you probably had a bunch of cans filled at the same time, why only 2 with diesel?!?

Nothing better than fishing with family. Nice post. Lucky escape there. Perhaps the pump attendant thought the spare tanks were for the bakkie ?

Thats right Marcos... Only two were filled. Vidal ran out of petrol for a couple of days...What happened was I went to town with 2of my empty cans and another two for Detox. When filling up I asked the attendant to fill Detox's cans 1st and I want to pay seperately for them . Then after they were filled I asked her to fill my two cans and then fill up my Hilux witn diesel and put both of my amounts on one payslip....I think thats where the confusion came in. I still had 2 full cans in my hatches

Mooi report Werner!!!!


Ons was die 24ste by vidal om saam familie daar op die strand te spandeer en wou kom hello se daar by jou, maar die sekuriteit wou nie dat ek ingaan by die kamp terrein nie.

a Lot can happen till March but at this point the launch is really good. The bay is nice and deep but there is a sandbank just past the pole on the point which you should take note off...especially when the tide is low. The waves pick up fast over the bank so be carefull.

I'll be fishing the Cape Vidal Top 10 comp from 12-16March so I will report back on what the launch is like then

Haha ja-nee dan sal ek maar langs jou moet wees want as ek voor moet wees ry ek dalk verkeerde rigting in en fish anyway dan aleen.
Die rukkie wat ons op die strand gesit het, het ons n paar bote gesien wat in gekom het en almal met vis op. .
Ons het nogal gesukkel op R-baai, deels daarvan dat ek lekker siek was met n griep en dan die swak weer. Ek dink ons het maar 5 dae gefish in totaal.
