Was just informed that our year end function is the 26th, but will be there on the 27th

Would you like a "lift"  w;k
 
I will only be going through the Sunday. :-)

If we caught fish on every trip, it would be called " Catching". We don't, and that's why it's called "Fishing".

Have inquired about a booking!

Whats the wading like here guys? I have shocking balance and the few times I have waded I have come back with cuts and bruises  duh

Also tackle wise, I presume floating line, 4/5 weight, and 2.7kg leader or is that too light?

Eeeeiiissshhhh, I'm starting to wonder about you WK.  :cnfzd
 
Are you that busy fishing stew ponds and pap venues that you really can't find time to fish for our prime freshwater fish, or you just adverse to falling down in the Vaal river ? :dunno:
 
There again remembering their are only 2 kinds of f/f who fish the Vaal.
 
Thosewho have fallen, and the whose are yet to fall. w;k
