Howzit keags.....I think youll get a better response if you do an intro first, tell us a bit about yourself....

What youve done here is like a stranger bursting into the local pub and demanded to know where all the loose women are, before ordering a drink......

Oh   :welc: BTW

(http://www.ultimateangling.co.za/Smileys/goodsmiles/dunno.gif) Howzit guys. Im an amateur at fishing. Basically using normal sardine and standard hooks. I recently got a bigger rod and got a few bigger hooks as well. i went fishinf at Casarina's this weekend and got nothing but two bites in one hour. we then moved to steel bridge, while i enjoy feeling the many bites of the grunters there..... im getting bored catching these small grunters and throwing them back because they are undersize. Where can I go to to catch some nice sizes to take home? or at least some different fish?

I haven't had muck luck with waypoints myself for Richardsbay. On the waypoints Lebaka gave me I got some nice bottoms. If you go down to Petingo you should get some bottoms. Trolling around the ships usually gets you a bonny or tuna.

Hi Guys...

I'm also trying to do some research on fishing at RB...

I will be doing a trip there 12-15 Feb 2019...

Can anybody help with some advise please ? (and possible marks)...

I'll be fishing of a jetski...  I usually just trawl in Moz with plastics, not sure if this will work in RB...

I do want to try bottom fishing and drifting...

Would like to target sailfish if they're around...

Thanks guys, any advise will be appreciated...
