Most fishing shops have the Makatoerie ( sp) guide books. There is one for the Vaal Dam, and one for the Vaal River. They give a report on all the known public venues, description of facilities, maps etc. They are really cheap and a "must have" for anyone who doesn't know the venues.
 
( Like me for the dam  :blush: )

I have heard Island Shores has these but its not open anymore?
 
I have heard through a contact that Island Shores is again open, but can not vouch fot it.
If we caught fish on every trip, it would be called " Catching". We don't, and that's why it's called "Fishing".
