Eric is pre-occupied with his new son and larger family, he is doing well.

Yes I heard him saying something like that age's ago.. Not like the Snoek Master to take a little time of for the Couta. Maybe he will surface.  :sml:

You forgot to mention that you hold the SA light tackle record for a couta you cought on 1kg line with a bass popper in 1961!

I hope things improve, big ground swell has moved in today but things are looking like settling next week after a weekend of westerlies?? The couta fishing has been very so so with big Zambis spoiling a lot of catches, looked at the NPB catch report for last weekend and it was dismal to say the least but some boats did well during the week getting 5-8 fish up north. Biggest uncomfirmed was a 22kg off Peace Cottage last week??
The excellent snoek run has also slowed down, a mate of mine blanked 2 days in a row and on the 3rd day got 4 (in the week) Reports of more than usual wahoo in the cleaner/warm water close in??
I will scratch around for info over the next week and post it (if any) on Wedensday/Thursday.
Just Fish!!!
