Well this is my first catch report on Ultimate Angling.
This past holiday with the world cup and all has really flown by, and the week at Cannon was no exception. The fishing was rather quiet :fshng: but I still managed a new species on the last morning, so I was and still am pretty stoked about that.
We fished at our usual reef called "double point bay" a couple of times, all we managed was a blacktail(caught by myself and a small Cracker caught by my dads best friend from East London who joined us on the one weekend. I caught the blacktail on chokka and sandprawn(my favourite scratching bait for the Eastern Cape).
On the last morning before we packed up we went to the "Wreck" at Cannon. I baited up with a butterflied Red Prawn and the favourite Sandprawn. A few "tap taps" and I thought it was few curious Golden Stripeys (Karenteen), a few "tap tap's" later and I decided to strike. I reeled in the slack and waited for another "tap" and I hit him. VAS!!!!
I was using my light Blue Marlin scratching stick, gees even for a little guy he put up a decent fight. My first White Steenbras (Pignose Grunter)!!!! All in all it was a wonderful holiday as usual. I cant wait for December for Raggie Time in the Kariega River Mouth with WalkersKiller(Gareth)!
I love fishing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! pce
