Title: Flyfishing in Summer - Elandskloof
Post by: Gerhard on January 03, 2013, 09:13:08 AM

I visited Elandskloof the a few days during the end of December..


Weather was 4 seasons in a day.


Water temprature was around 21 degrees making hard work but very rewarding fishing.


In all I hooked and landed around 20 fish and 8 of them was in the 18 inch class.


Here is some of the photos I took...

This goes to show if you work hard and fish even harder you will have your fly rod bending during mid summer by a fat  :trout:
