Day four we went north again dropped a few fish but on our way back we loaded some yft .Day five was a blow out, but we will be back soon.

Sound like you had a lovely trip Syclone. 4 out of 5 days good fishing weather is great. I love Sodwana.
I've never been as far up as Black Rock but will defenitely go this Desember.
I've been at 9 mile and whitesands many times before and caught some lovely Prodical sun shallow.
Suffering badly from "fiskoors" here in Pta.
