Drove up on Monday to Jozini for a Tiger fishing trip, the water is still very cold but crystal clear and the dam is almost 100% full.
Early mornings were very cold but the days were hot, on Monday the wind was howling first NE and the SW, Tuesday was a spectacular day, Wednesday morning was stunning but the afternoon was terrible with a massive SW wind blowing causing very large waves.
Fishing was very hard and over the 2 days I think we only got about 10 fish in total, a few fair size ones and one or two dinks. Then on Wednesday afternoon when the huge SW began and the waves were rolling we had 2 good fish in a row, a 5.5Kg and a 6Kg.
I had to work really hard to get fish and we travelled a lot around the dam and covered a good amount of water.
I am pleased with that 6Kg Tiger as this fish sets a new record for my charters.
The birds are all starting to breed and although most the vegetation is still brown one can clearly see the beginning signs of Spring. I noticed two Ostriches which I have never seen around the dam before and these birds are really large specimens.
Got back on Thursday to get ready for a Tuna trip on Friday morning.
