Here is the definitive article on Springer, written by Bruce Black with permission, and courtesy of RSD, the great SA Angling Magazine.

Nice article. I like his note on improving the chances of a successful release at the end. Handle your fish with care folks.


Oh, and PS: You may need a slightly heavier Flouro leader than 0,042mm  w;k
Forgive me Father for I have spinned... It's been three weeks since my last cob session.

Oh it is not fair to awaken a dream like that!!

Long ago  I use to target these in the Keurbooms river! Right under the N2 bridge, drifting boat and dryflyn pink prawn!!

Some of my fondest childhood fishing memories.

I am on my way to Port Alfred and the owner of the guest house where I am staying regularly catch some.

That would be a Christmas present of note!
